I have never used an Offshore as I thought it too difficult and complicated. After reading other published material on the topic, I still did not know enough to proceed. However, after reading Dr. Grosh's book, I believe it is something that I can make use of.

I would like to thank Dr. Grosh for writing such an easy to read and understand book on such a complicated subject. The advice and guidance provided are proving invaluable to me.

I purchased a copy for my financial advisor so we can work together on this.

I think this was worth the investment as it has made a welcome addition to the other books in my "offshore" collection. What makes this one rather different is that it has three distinct chapters on the mechanics of Canadian, British and American tax laws, as well as a computerised analysis of the way to effectively choose an offshore country. Easy to follow and understand, and I even gave one to my accountant.

Thought the book was wonderful. Very informative and gave me great ideas on how to invest my money. Dr. Grosh made it easy for people without any investing knowledge to learn how to save money by putting it offshore.

I was slightly intimidated because the previous reviewer (anonymous) gave it such a scathing review (stating it was boring and useless) - but I ordered it from Amazon nevertheless since it is so highly rated and a (according to a friend) best seller on the subject. OK, so it isn't the most exciting read on the planet, but useless? Hardly! I found that when I applied the information with the other standard books on offshore that it was extremely useful as a selection tool. There is a lot of information contained in the 300 pages. I suggest that if readers seek excitement that they go see a film. If someone wants a book about choosing an offshore tax haven (even if boring), this is worth the price.

just bought my second copy as a gift to a client

although there is no anti-money laundering (after 9-11) material, as the text appears to have been written right before that, it is still an international standard in comparing tax haven locations

has an extensive section for Canadian investors, which is why i like it

reading is kind of on the dull side but it isn't meant to be a mystery novel but instead offers useful information using straight talk

it was worth the money for this book because I now know not to believe the hype when searching for a proper offshore location country - helps you figure out what makes a place a suitable offshore site

This is a great book - I would give a hint to potential buyers that I have seen this rather pricey good paperback seller over at Amazon.co.uk cheaper than at Amazon.com (via Amazon Marketplace), and it appears to be internationally available. Good hunting (for the book)...and then good hunting for a tax haven!

I was the struggling not to fall asleep the whole time. Terrible, dry language. Not a single practical piece of advice. I was bored to tears.
