Does anybody actually do this? It seems like it would be easier just to pay an accountant to hide your money convincingly in some sort of offshore account or company than to do all that pesky flying, and awkward moving to the other side of the world.
Which brings me to another point, the rich are people too, and I doubt very many will ever care enough about their money to uproot their entire social life.
- TomOfTTB 16y agoThe people discussed in this article are people are rich enough to be able to influence politicians with their own personal money. To people with that kind of wealth I don't think flight travel and hotel expenses are that big a deal. They could easily continue to live most of their life in the United States and simply call a foreign country their home for tax purposes.
- blueben 16y agoYou aren't very familiar with the lifestyles of the modern rich. Their social circles are other rich people, not tied to a single location. This is the kind of wealth that can check in to any hotel at a moment's notice, and maintain any number of apartments internationally.
