Canadian Bank accounts
I wish to set up an Canadian bank account to protect assets- particularly from an unfair civil judgment from a predatory civil suit, wherein a landlord breached lease, and even got his building condemned, but had an aggressive lawyer. Since establishing a potentially successful enterprise, I was recently hit with another smaller threat for a civil suit. So my question is, would having a Canadian bank account set up w/ an LLC protect from writs of garnishment? that is all I worry about, I in no way wish to avoid taxes, although I am under the impression that these accounts can be set up w/o ss# or ein...I would be interested in any insight.
...
I include information on Canadian banking in my e-book Invisible Money. A Canadian account can normally not be tracked down by a PI. However, if you are in a civil suit, might you be deposed? If so, you will be asked (under oath) about ALL your accounts ...You might consider keeping funds in cash, silver, or gold.

RE: April 8720
April, setting up a server isn't all that hard. All you really need is a computer that can be connected to the net constantly. You can get an inexpensive, refurbished desktop on ebay for about $150.
After you're set up, download the Apache Server from the link at the bottom. Configure the system as described in this video:

Re: 8614 - College w/ pen name, no SSN
Re. Someone taking personal enmrichment classes using pen name and no SSN.
Colleges are usually careful with privacy ONLY if you request that your "directory information" not be made available.
Easier to accomplich with community colleges (many have lots of illegal aliens) or state colleges, especially for those not seeking a degree.
Usually you will need to show gov't ID to get the college ID, but you can get by without one by registering online and not borrowing library books.

Re: 8686 - PO Box
There is no requirement you live anywhere where the PO box is located. Sometimes people rent them in an area they will be moving to or for many other legitimate reasons.
Keep in mind that when a POB is used for commercial purposes anyone can legally obtain the name/address of the boxholder. Even if not used for business there are illegal ways of obtaining the info the PO (or CMRA)has. Such ways are not too complicated or risky, and would not be unknown to criminals.

Re:8718 nosy mail drops
Obviously they will see return addresses. I have had mail opened by a remailer (I sent a test mailing) as well as a hotel where I was staying and had mail sent there.

Credit Card
you stated on a post that you have a credit card, is there any advantage to having a credit card vs using only cash?
...
It is impossible to rent a car or stay at a major hotel, especially in Europe, without a credit card. Also, extra charges on air travel often require a credit card. Cash will not be accepted.

RE: The Census Isn't Enough
While intrusive, the census and the community survey serve an important purpose for allocating local funds, etc. The last two rounds, I've returned the survey using "Person One" and "Person Two" as the names of people in the household, and have left a few questions blank and others with ambiguous answers. This link provides good advice with legal justification:

setting up one's own internet server
I currently travel a lot and make money from selling online with my blogs.
I also do web design of sites but haven't done much lately. I do want to begin pursuing this more.
First, I want to learn all I can about setting up using a vpn and my own server. I know I had found info, I believe on the blog about the vpn but know little about the server side of things.
If I can be pointed in the right direction, I will do my homework. It would be nice to know if anyone is doing this and the types of costs I am looking at.
I do want to stop traveling and move even more remote and offgrid so will read info on the blog in this regard as well.
Thanks for any info.

Ghost mail & nose problems
Has anyone encountered issues with nosy office folks where you had an agreement with them for mail receipt and they were caught looking to see who you got mail from and how frequently. Just wondering. Thanks in advance.
...
I can only speak for the ghost addresses I offer in Alaska and Spain. Mail has been sent on to me from Alaska for the past six years and never opened. For Spain, I use the scan option, which means ALL mail is opened, scanned, and sent on to me by email. The agent who scans does not read English but even if he did, there are no secrets in my mail.

LLC ghost address for car and house in Canada?
As a resident of Washington, can I buy a house and car using a NM LLC for ownership with a ghost address in Alberta? (I have a friend living in Alberta.)
How can I pay in cash for the house and do it anonymously?
Thanks
...
You can use a Canadian address for the LLC but since you are a WA rersident, you'll be asked for a WA address as well.I suggest you pay with a bank cashier's check from your own account. This will not show up on any routine title search, as far as I know.

Securing Equity
I have read on here before about securing the equity in a home by using a New Mexico LLC, as a lending agent. The LLC becomes a mortgage holder against the home, and the home no longer has any equity. I can't seem to find the discussion on HTBI website or how to record a mortgage like that. Help please
...
What you suggest is legal & do-able, Karl. However, it is an advanced concept. I recommend working with a title company because the mortgage must be recorded. Also, the mortgage must be actually "fundable." That is, the face value of the mortgage must actually exist in cash and be transferred to the LLC. If not, it is considered a fraudulent lien which can be undone by a court at the request of a creditor.
There is more info available on the Internet, but I recommend you do this only with the help of a lawyer whose field is asset protection.

NDAA Comment
Your recent blog about the economic collapse would have legitimate cause for concern. From what I have heard, an equally legitimate concern is Obama signing into law the National Defense Authorization Act on New Year's Eve. There are parts of it regarding Habeus Corpus, military taking over law enforcement, detainment with out process, etc, that can be left to interpretation, which is why he said he would not sign it, but did it anyway.
Thank you.

New to LLC's and have a few questions...
Hello. Just love your book, Mr. Luna and would like your advice on LLC's. I just purchsed a small car but already have the title and, of course, the license plates. Can I still register it under an LLC Name if I send in the title again to change it? Do you think I would have any problem doing this? And my license plates, too...?
Also, I have a credit union account. Can I change my personal name on that to that of an LLC and do my banking under that name as opposed to my personal name?
I'm sorry if these seem like "amateur-ish" questions to you, but I am really new to all of this. Though still "green" on this topic, I am so very concerned about my privacy in every area of my life. Thank you for your help...and your patience, too.
...
Contact Rosie Enriquez for the LLC information about your car.Banking with an LLC will not protect your privacy because you still have to give your name and SSN.

Heather's problem
Wouldn't it help if your husband was licensed in several states? Make that many states, perhaps California, Florida and Washington states.

Re: Heather 8681
Heather -
Consider complicating the task of the people trying to track you. For example, consider what would happen if you and your husband were to pick some state far from you and start to leave a paper trail there. You might pick a state where your husband can easily get a medical license on a reciprocity basis, then spend a long weekend there. Get a UPS-Store type mailbox mailing address; do a few things that will end up in databases - perhaps buying a state fishing license with your “new” address. You could even set up a web site for a non existent medical practice with a name that might be your husband’s (for example, the right last name and specialty, but no first name or initial and no details that would help the reader to determine if the web site really refers to your husband).
This web discussion and Mr. Luna’s books focus on minimizing the amount of accurate information we give the world about ourselves. You might focus on the related idea of diluting the accurate information that accidentally leaks out regarding your family with a flood of false information - unfortunate sprigs of truths hidden by a forest of disinformation.
Ask yourself this - if you spend 10 hours and $500 laying a misleading trail that the crazy relatives waste several weeks and several thousand dollars investigating...would you consider that a “win”? If not, then forget this idea, but if so, then you might think about picking a jurisdiction that
- your spouse can easily get licensed in, ideally an automatic license by reciprocity.
- that has a reputation for being sloppy about privacy, and for posting lots of records online.
- that will be inconvenient and expensive for your opponents to investigate in depth. In addition to the 50 states, think about whether someplace like the U.S. Virgin Islands has the right mix of attributes. Heck, you’d love to spend a long weekend there leaving a paper trail, wouldn’t you?
I hope that your name isn’t really “Heather” and that you’re not really in “St. Louis”...(otherwise, you’re not taking this seriously enough). But your example of Saint Louis has a good feature that’s worth noting - it would be perfectly plausible for someone to live in Saint Louis, Missouri but to work in East Saint Louis, Illinois. If you happen to pick someplace like that to lay a false trail, the search to investigate the trail just became at least twice as hard and twice as expensive then if you picked someplace that isn’t near a jurisdictional border.
Think of other assets you can use to confuse your trail. Is there another physician with the same specialty and the same name as your husband? Can you use that coincidence to your benefit, either by making your opponents think “We can ignore any records in Dallas Texas; those belong to the other guy” or by leading your opponents to the other guy? (Or, ideally, by doing the later and than capitalizing on the former).
Is there a classmate of your husband who would be willing to help out, so that your husband’s name and photo appear on a website for a practice in another state far away long enough to be indexed by Google? You could always explain that in the future by saying “I was considering doing some locum tenens work for his practice but decided against it...I guess that he jumped the gun and put up the web page too soon.”
If you like this line of thought, I would encourage you to consult a private investigator, or someone similar who tries to find people (insurance investigator, skip tracer, detective, etc.). I worked in that field for many years and you would be a dream client - a chance to use what we know, but to use it in a novel way; a chance to play “bad guy”, but for a good cause.
Best of luck.
...
Excellent advice, Mark!
