InactiveThe bank of Britain would be better but yes this would be good in any means.
Can you say backfire to congress? Their plans of taking control of gambling are going to blow up as by the time they want to regulate it its all going to be moved underground.

InactiveAmericans with offshore bank accounts/credit cards are 100% in a legal way to gamble.
Not necessary in a tax haven.
Could be in the EU banks etc.

InactiveOk, I’ll step forward and ask the dumb questions.
I always thought to open an off shore account you had to have serious dollars. Just what does it take to open one, how long does the process take, is one off shore bank better than another, what is a ‘yellow account’, is there a ‘off shore banking remedial 99’ course or ‘off shore banking for dummies’ book available? How do you make deposits, withdrawals, transfers etc.. doesn’t it all have to be done by bank wire? Anyone have any good info, links, recommendations, etc?

InactiveSwiss accounts can be opened for smaller values – but if you do not have a minimum deposit level of around 7,500 Swiss FRancs (CHF) then you’ll be charged monthly fees of about 2 CHF.
It is a realistic way to do business – and only the most draconian of governments would prevent their citizens from holding one.
Be warned though that Swiss banks will charge more than US banks for basic day to day dealings – and international posting of statements will mean a higher running cost.
Also if you run a credit card with you’ll be hit with “currency conversion fees” on everything that is not is your base currency – so the costs can add up – but it’s not excessive. Perhaps $80-$100 pa in charges.

Swiss bank accounts are a myth unless you opened it several years ago. The new money laundering legislation made Swiss one of the toughest countries to bank in(once you are started you are good forever though). Also they now cater to wealthy individuals then masses.

biggygMemberThere are alot of fake offshore companies online too , you send the money and never hear from them again. I know of one that was running Iraqi money out of PA. And Ivory coast one that was so good they even had website set up . You really have to be careful about this stuff. I recommend using a lawyer to set this up for you if you have $xxx,xxx to transfer.
