Meine Kunden kommen fast alle aus Deutschland, obwohl ich mich schon vor 48 Jahren auf eine lange Abenteuerreise begeben habe.

So hat alles angefangen:

Am 1.8.1966 begann ich meine Ausbildung, 1969 mein berufsbegleitendes Studium im Öffentlichen Recht und Steuerrecht.

Seit dem 1.8.1971 bin ich selbständig und als Spezialist für vermeintlich unlösbare Probleme von Unternehmern tätig.

Im Oktober 1977 bin ich nach Griechenland umgezogen und habe von dort aus mit einer Reiseschreibmaschine und einem Bakelit-Telefon gearbeitet. Alle paar Monate fuhr oder flog ich zu meinen Mandanten nach Deutschland. Griechenland interessierte sich damals nicht für Steuern.

Bis 2008 habe ich mit Unterbrechungen die meiste Zeit in Griechenland verbracht. Von 1995 bis 2000 hatte ich meinen steuerlichen Wohnsitz in Belgien und seit 2001 in Paraguay.

Von 2000 bis 2011 hatte ich einen weiteren steuerfreien Wohnsitz auf Mallorca. Seit 2011 lebe ich das ganze Jahr über nur noch in Paraguay.

Mein eigenes Haus habe ich erst mit 62 Jahren gebaut, als ich es bar bezahlen konnte. Hätte ich es früher gebaut, wäre das nur mit einer Bankfinanzierung möglich gewesen. Dann wäre ich an einen Ort gebunden gewesen und hätte mich einschränken müssen. Das wollte ich nicht.

Mein Leben lang habe ich das Angenehme mit dem Nützlichen verbunden. Seit 2014 war ich nicht mehr in Europa. Viele meiner Kunden kommen nach Paraguay, um sich von mir unter vier Augen beraten zu lassen, etwa 200 Investoren und Unternehmer pro Jahr.

Mit den meisten Kunden funktioniert das aber auch wunderbar online oder per Telefon.

Ron Paul: The Vietnamization of Ukraine

capitooll.jpg

As Ukraine’s defeat in the war moves closer, the neocons are desperate to draw the US further into the fight.

As Ukraine’s defeat in the war moves closer, the neocons are desperate to draw the US further into the fight. Over the weekend, former US State Department official Victoria Nuland told ABC News that the US must help facilitate Ukrainian missile attacks deep inside Russian territory. The Biden Administration has to this point avoided involvement in such attacks, likely because Russian president Vladimir Putin has warned that Russia will strike any facility that supplies or facilitates strikes inside of Russia, wherever they may be.

It’s a clear warning from a nuclear power, but as Nuland and her fellow neocons see their Ukraine project failing, they demand escalation. This is just what they did in their previous disastrous projects like the Iraq War, the attacks on Syria and Libya, and the 20-year occupation of Afghanistan. For them the failure is never because it was a bad idea in the first place, but that not enough lives and resources were poured into that bad idea to create a good outcome.

But Russia is no Iraq nor is it Libya. This time they are playing with World War III and nuclear destruction and no one in DC seems concerned.

Last Thursday the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Charles Q. Brown, said that NATO trainers deployed within Ukraine was inevitable. “We’ll get there eventually, over time,” he said. This, of course, is exactly how we got the Vietnam War, but Russia in 2024 is hardly late -1950s Vietnam. Russia of today is a country that can fight back and can project military power all the way to the source, which means the United States.

Is Nuland’s Ukraine project worth dying in a nuclear war over?

The whole US involvement in this proxy war has been based on lie after lie. They said we had to help Ukraine defeat Russia because democracy itself was at stake. Then Ukrainian president Zelensky cancelled elections, so they told us we have to help Ukraine defeat Russia because Putin won’t stop there – he’ll soon be marching through Berlin, London, and maybe even New York!

Doesn’t it remind you of how the neocons were warning us that Saddam was going to attack the US mainland with drones and that he was operating mobile weapons labs? Anything to get the public on board for their war.

The fact is the neocons and warmongers lie constantly. They will do whatever it takes to get their wars and sadly we do not have an independent media in the US to challenge them on their lies. Our media is so closely tied to the military-industrial complex that it is also a stakeholder in war profits, so they aren’t about to rock the boat.

Anyone who thinks we cannot get sucked into another war like we were with George W. Bush’s lie that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction is not paying attention. It is happening again, in real time.

The fact is we live in a deeply corrupt society dominated by individuals who do not believe in truth. When you don’t believe in truth you will have no qualms about manipulating others to do your will. So unless they are stopped, neocons like Nuland will demand more attacks on Russia, more US troops in Ukraine, more escalation. Until Russia fights back. Then it will all be over. Is this what we want?
