Taxes?

I am really curious about this. I hear some going around saying ‘stop paying taxes’, but hardly ever hear about the nuances and the how’s. Would love to stop paying taxes. For example what about…

What if you you are a person that collects a W2 at end of year. Any issues or differences here?

What if you have investments that collect interest or dividends both domestically and internationally? Any issues or differences here?

What if you have a 401K? A pension?

Anyway, thank you Mike for sharing and I will dig deeper into what you shared. Always learning, but if anyone has experience in any of the above would like to hear about it. Thank you.

I recently went through a skin thing. Wasn’t labelled ringworm or rash, but I had very itchy skin almost like poison oak but without the poison oak. Kinda similar maybe? Anyway, my natural path healer diagnosed it as Lead and/or Glyphosate toxicity. Not sure where that came from, but I guess we do swim in a toxic soup now days. Anyway, I was prescribed a liver kidney detox supplement Vinco Liver Kidney Detox (along with a few other things here and there like brown seaweed, flax oil, zinc, etc…) and told to cut out all cacao. Boom about 2 weeks later that did the trick. Looks like others have pointed out the connection to some type of toxicity with the skin things. Anyway, thats what worked for me. Good luck.

This is a great thread. Can anyone recommend a dentist in the SF bay area? My wife has some dental issues and would like to find someone like minded. For me, I have good oral health and haven’t been to the dentist in about 4 years. The older part of me sometimes gets self conscious for not going… ‘you gotta go’. ? If I have a healthy mouth is there a good reason to go to the dentist? I really don’t want to go (when I do I think they look at me like Im a kook) ?. Really curious what you guys do? Well, there are some great products and reads in this thread. I’ll keep digging. Thank you.

Hey Mike, 57 year old life long hardcore surfer here. Still going strong–and surfing SF Ocean Beach (heavy). Not bragging, just giving context. For me, around 45 was when I started to suffer from surfing injuries/pain (and trying to keep up with my son). While stretching or other healing modalities are good, strength and conditioning is mandatory to prevent injuries/pain and maximize daily success.

The guy SurfStrengthCoach.com has some good programs (mostly paid though).

@<b tabindex=”-1″>elisesbodyshop is good to for daily programs on IG.

Pro surfers like Lakey have free surf specific workouts on YT

These have helped me. I do at least one of these 6 days a week—unless I am surfing that day. Wish you the best. Maybe one day I will catch a wave in the CC area.

Thank you Abram! Will check out Marcia’s course on trusts. Been wanting to do this for a while now so this is good motivation. Starting to map out my escape process.

1. Revocation of Election
2. Dual citizenship
3. Foreign bank account
4. Foreign mailing address
5. Trust setup

Thanks Mary. Will look into this.

Mary, do you use any techy devices to manage or control your wifi at home. Like it turning off when you leave the house, or are you doing it that all natural way by pulling the plug? We have a 15 year old and wifi in the house. He is pretty savvy so we need to up our game on the wifi controls.

Sounds cool Barre. Your surf life story is admirable. Do you surf rivers now like Gerry Lopez? Why did you leave Fiji? Was it Fiji?

Hey Mike! Thats an amazing connection with LP. She seems like a good human (not to mention good surfer). Her 30 min workout video is so good for me.

It would be awesome to surf together. Don’t know any other surfers who are out of the matrix/awake—well a couple but they are a little out of shape and cant keep up. ? I think I know where you surf, but afraid to name names/spots as don’t want to give away anything here. It is cold thats all I know. Maybe some day I see you in the water. ? best wishes.

Thanks Barre and Mike. I hear you and agree martial arts is great for surfing—and most anything else. I agree Slater and Hamilton are great examples of life long surfers who have done very well with the mind/body/fitness/health. For the type of surfing I do, and where I surf, I really need to maintain that strength/fitness component or I will get injured (and I wont even be able to paddle out ?). If you ever form a AV surf team trip to the slaters surf ranch let me know. Would love to ride that wave. ? Would be stoked to surf with like minded humans such as you guys! Anyway, love what you guys are doing and thank you again for sharing your knowledge. I will stay tuned.
