Review # 1 was written on 2010-08-19 00:00:00 Dale Vernon Informative, to the point, and great read, for anyone who wants to get into business (seriously), and protect their assets and cash. Although, this book won't help you until you have at least half a million dollars to leave untouched.

Review # 2 was written on 2009-09-04 00:00:00 Robb Krueger Canny guide to hiding money This guide to the world of Swiss banking offers generally concise, useful information about legally sheltering assets from the American government and the U.S. economic decline. At times, author Hoyt Barber seems almost prescient, such as when he speaks about U.S. banks' exposure to risky derivatives - and the consequences. He has a distinct political bias, and offers few, if any, kind words about the Democratic Party. However, this is not a theoretical analysis of finance or a political polemic, so such comments are just asides. Overall, getAbstract welcomes his focus on the nitty-gritty practicalities of opening and maintaining a Swiss bank account. These include the legal requirements for reporting to the U.S. government, which are surprisingly simple; the range of services one might expect from a Swiss banker; and the alternatives to Swiss banking, just in case the Swiss system should become less secret for foreign depositors.
