about tax...

Looks like the paradise/offshore topic hit a raw nerve. To do this means leaving family and friends in the "mainland" must cut many ties. Glad to hear that medical doesn't seem to be a concern.

Needless to say nobody is going to do this if gross is less than
100k.

Hey Metooxx, why not BVI - I thought they have filber there
via "Cable and Wireless" - not sure whether a T1 is available
there? I like to hear about your comment there (BVI) and other
locations.

This is all fiber.

Because my wife wanted to be close to US for medical and family ...
 
Thanks metooxx. Those are good considerations. I'll keep them in mind in the future. Developing a local business will also a plus -building own house would be a good start - except moving the building material would be a challenge on those islands.

What do you do when the storm comes - closing shop?

Man, you can be from outer space and Uncle Sam will tax you. No wonder they don't come here.

:cool:

You are missing the point; you are in compliance with the US tax code ...

Moving stuff from Florida is an everyday thing; people bulk grocery shop there once a month.

Haven't seen a major storm; at first I thought we would leave, now I realize the locals treat it like we would a snow storm ...
 
Metooxx, my mindset re. storm is same as yours/local, but just wondering whether the internet connection would get affected
or not. If you have big open positions - would you fly to the
"mainland" just in case?
