A side benefit is the greatest longevity in the world---not surprising
in view of completely free healthcare, free education, 100 percent
literacy. It has no taxes on citizens---which is not to say there are
no taxes---the free stuff is not free, just paid by non-citizens---nice
if you can arrange it.

*Try to Imagine this: *a lush green valley... hidden from the rest of
the world... yet only a short drive from some of Europe's hottest
cities. It's a secret valley still ruled by a real prince that's
beenoverlooked for centuries. It's picturesque. Unregulated.
Inexpensive. And best of all, there are no taxes. Let's learn the
secrets of Andorra and explain how you can live there tax-free for only
a fraction of what it's costing you to live in your own home.
Andorra is a medieval principality secluded from the rest of the world,
yet only a short drive from the sparking beaches of the French Riviera,
and that bustling European economic powerhouse, Barcelona. It lies in a
hidden valley in the picturesque Pyrenees - and is one of the few
alpine paradises in the world that is also a tax haven.What makes
Andorra the ultimate personal tax haven in all of Europe is a splendid
combination of features.
Take political stability. Andorra has zero leftist political parties. In
fact, it hardly has any government at all. Of the 60,000 people that
inhabit this alpine tax refuge, fewer than one hundred 0.4% of the total
population - work for the government. There is not even a currency; both
French and Spanish are recognized as legal tender.
Then there's the robust economy. Andorra is a wealthy, duty free area
with no taxes of any kind whatsoever! Its postal system is free,
supported by sale of Andorran stamps to collectors around the world.
Labour unions are strictly forbidden. There is no hint of a "socialist
mentality" among the natives.
*Safe, secret banking...*
The unregulated banking system is among the safest in the world. It is
sound, prosperous, computerized, streamlined, discreet and very customer
oriented. Some of the wealthiest people in the world prefer Andorra's
low-profile banks to those of secretive Switzerland. You can obtain an
account in Andorra and access world markets in total privacy - and you
can receive interest rates several percent higher than you would receive
in the United Kingdom and the United States.
*Free education and health care - even free entertainment *
In Andorra there is no crime. There is free health care for everyone,
including old age pensions. All internal mail is free, too! Schools are
free for everyone. Most entertainment is free. Dining out in a first
class restaurant before a free classical music concert is cheap. Andorra
has 250 restaurants, some of Europe's best skiing and the largest number
of Mercedes limousines per capita in the world. Its people are affluent.
They do not pay any taxes at all.
Andorra is cosmopolitan. More than two thirds of all residents are
wealthy, self-made foreigners, most of who moved to Andorra because they
were fed up with government red tape and destructive bureaucracy. The
adult literacy rate is 100%.
