Ok, first off, thank you Craig for a very thoughtful response. Quite nice
mate. :)
After a little research I found that its fine to come for some meetings. I
will bill the UK company as a US company when work is completed and the UK
company will not levy any taxes. England has a way of getting around this
loss of revenue though. I tend to like beer and the locals have forced me
to take part in English beer history. Jesus, everything is so expensive
here.
Ok, I must tend to the negative comment about W and his fiscal policy. My
only comment is... the guy is brilliant. I can't wait to invest part of my
SS. Who doesn't want to gain at least a tiny return on their investment?
If you are under 40 and say no to privitization you are mad. ROI is good!
Sorry I missed the Thursday gathering.
P.S. - SS is so broke. Actually it was broke from day one. Lets fix FDR's
mistakes.
Tony
