Unexpected Tax Bills
Without a clear tax home, multiple countries can claim you as a resident — often retroactively.
Banking Dead Ends
Banks and financial platforms increasingly require proof of tax residency. Without it, you get declined.
Living in a Legal Grey Zone
No formal tax residency isn't freedom — it's exposure. One audit can unravel years of uncertainty.

$5,000/year flat. No income tax, no capital gains, no corporate tax. Applies regardless of whether you earn $50K or $5M.

What People Are Saying
I just got back from Prospera. A startup city on the island of Roatán. It's crypto, it's bio, it's robo. And it's not San Francisco.
