Opening a Swiss Bank Account - The Facts
Many of us dream of opening a Swiss bank account and/or having an anonymous credit card where we can spend our money without being constantly monitored and tracked by the authorities. In the UK it is currently so bad that the rubbish bins (wheelybins) are starting to be implanted with microchips to record the amount of rubbish that we throw away so that we can be charged. How soon before we are implanted? - for our own safety of course.
Many individuals are just looking for privacy, they do not want to defraud the exchequer (IRS for the Americans) by evading tax - they just wish to escape the constant survellance cameras and other intrusions into their daily lives. I believe that where I bank, and with whom, is no ones business but mine. How I now regret failing to take the opportunity to open a non status bank account - actually a numbered offshore account in the past.
On the internet it is not hard to find supposed 'offshore banking advisors' who claim to be able to open an offshore anonymous bank account for a fee. Please take my advice and look at the Q Wealth Report before you make any decisions there is no such thing as a free offshore bank account. There are lots of free articles on the site and it is possible to download the latest edition but, if you subscribe for the low fee asked, it is possible to download the 2008 Offshore Banking Guide. That alone is worth the cost of subscribing.
