I live in an extremely high tax country, and It has never made any difference to me that the country I choose to live in has a high tax burden, because I am always able to find creative ways to find loopholes to not pay tax for offshore earnings and savings. I have found that nobody tells you about these loopholes, you sort of have to figure them out for yourself.

Brazil is based on physical residence (monitored by SRF based on the 183-rule). So - if a brazilian citizen declares a non-resident status to SRF (brazilian IRS), spends less than 183 days per year in the country and does not have his/her main active source of income within the territory, then one is only taxable on investments / enterprises initiated domestically prior to the declaration being filed (no new activities can be contracted after becoming a non-resident for tax purposes, as they freeze the applicant's CPF / TIN for certain purposes; one would need to keep a mandated representative in the country in order to do that). Ownership of any offshore or inshore properties abroad does not even have to be declared to SRF while the non-resident status persists. Now no precautions are enough if one decides to move the opposite way (return to the tax resident status after a year or more). Book a call with a tax lawyer first, tax plan appropriately, then make the decision...

@@ST-ff7pf Get self-employed, just work for cash. For savings and retirement convert the bills as soon as possible into physical gold and bitcoin. If possible completely avoid FIAT and e.g. try to get paid in bitcoin. State will collapse without taxes and inflation ;-) Dont fight physically against the state(except self-defence), just live a capitalist life. Dont act crazy or irrational but rather try to be a role-model. Violence and force is the way of socialism.. Nothing of this is complicated or artificial stuff, its just straight common sense. Self-determined men 2000 years ago lived like that(well, there was no btc) and more and more ppl are living like this today. We are growing in numbers everyday. The more people adopt this lifestyle, the weaker the state becomes. Basically there are two efficient ways to destroy the state, use sound money and dont send your kids to governmental indoctrination camps(=public schools). If you must send your kids because scumbags will otherwise violently take away child custody, make sure that you dont lose the natural/spiritual connection to your offspring. If your kids dont listen to you or feel ashamed for their parents, thats a big problem. Teach them the thruth, the state is responsible for 90% of all evil in the world. Just imagine a life without wars, taxes, inflation and inhuman policies like covid BS. There will never be utopia on earth but a stateless society of self-determined people will get quite close to it.

BESIDES the money aspect and going where you’re treated best, wouldn’t there also be where you’re feeling welcome not just by the tax situation but by the local people? For example, would they know that you got there by investment because you’re a foreigner or you don’t have to pay as much taxes would some of them feel like they don’t want you there. . Of course maybe you’re bringing something to the country but if you’re getting benefits like less taxes wouldn’t they be envious. Also for a single or solo person, are there countries that’s easier to meet people and I’m not talking about dating but just meeting people in general for a conversation and acquaintances and friends such as when I used to live overseas I would be in about a half a dozen meet up groups some for hiking, some for other interest groups and learning language groups.

If you are a real baller I could see going to Monaco and living off your yacht . But American citizens can form businesses, take massive reasonable deductions , then do pension and retirement planning , severely reduce their taxes corporate and personal and even escape state taxes by Florida residency or low tax / low property tax states. It’s the American way. You just need a great lawyer / accountant and pension person. You get to live in the United States 🇺🇸, travel abroad and send you kids to decent school and college and grad school. Why gamble to live in Eastern Europe / Asia or Mexico or central or South America. Do you need examples given the war in Ukraine of what can go wrong ?

I enjoy most of your videos, but I do get annoyed that you seem to basically think that people, especially extremely wealthy and billionares, should basically pay zero taxes at all, where they live. But honestly, that doesn't really work. For instance, in the period after World War II, until the 1960s, the top rate of income tax was 90%, and until the 1980s, when Reagan came in and got tax reform in, ordinary people were doing well, and could even write off all their interest paid to credit cards, banks, loans, etc., plus the top rate charged in interest was capped at 7% because of usuary laws! But once Congress got rid of usuary laws and banks incorporated in Delaware, the interest rates cannot be written off by mere consumers, and it's crippled 80% of most Americans! But billionaires now pay no tax, because they aren't "paid" but receive their money due to the value of their stocks, and can pay 2% interest on a loan of a billion, to a bank, and never have to pay taxes at all! In the meantime, the rest of us mere mortals, are screwed by the system totally, and are having to pay high interest with no write-offs, have lower wages proportionately compared to the 1950s, 60s and 70s, and despite incredible improvements in productivity, seem have not seen increases in their earnings commensurate with their productive gains! And they are not able to thrive, because Wall St. gets all the profits from the workers' gains, and more billionaires get richer! This is not a system that can survive! So your idea that billionaires should live where they don't have to contribute to a country's tax system is good and fair, is reasly not a great idea. It really isn't. And it shows, especially in the US. But England and other countries, as well. When you moaned about a 7 or 9% flat rate tax on profits being introduced in Dubai, I began to question your whole premise! You seem to want to live where your billions are not touched, in order to avoid contributing to the place you choose to locate. Perhaps you need to rethink your premise. Though I still enjoy your videos!:-)
