The basic concept in Sweden was introduced by Charles XII. :)

Before or after his sister had him killed?

What you describe hadn't occurred when he did it.

As you know, we didn't have the entire income tax structure created until the early 20th century.  :sleep:

You should incorporate yourself.  That way, you don't have to worry about any taxes overseas whatsoever.

My understanding is the non-resident tax doesn't impact many people, because the US has low rates and you get a credit for the tax paid overseas.  Rather it's the paperwork requirement that can be unpleasant.

This increasingly isn't true. New regulations going into place require that foreign financial institutions provide reporting to the IRS for US citizens similar to US institutions. You may be well under the amount to owe US taxes, but unless you are in a place that has a lot of expats or doesn't have a treaty with the US forcing compliance, good luck finding anyone to give you a mortgage, etc. No one is going to want to deal with IRS reporting just for a couple US clients.

Also, people may be surprised regarding what counts as overseas income. Per diems, housing and hotels, and some travel expenses can all count as income.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

This isnt about culture wars. This is about hating a black man.

Why not? Calvinists and Catholics agreed about the fate of Miguel Serveto.

Some real classics on there, but I can't get out of my mind that those must be April fools, surely? :unsure:
