The Millionaire's Favourite Read
The famous out of print collector's
1985 Classic Edition of the original...
From the time PT was first published, we are experiencing a very different world than it was in 1985. Today the world is in a very different and challenging situation. Even tho some information in the original PT book is out of date, people still today read the PT book, which will give you detailed information and new insights on the past compared to the present. Some even use this book today as their first step to secure their future. Many use PT as a road map to a new lifestyle. Therefore we are republishing the Original copy of PT as a paperback for the first time since the book was out of print many years ago. We have added an update to reflect new historical developments.
PT - WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT:
In 1985 the original PT book was published.
This is based on an original document as published in The PT Book by W.G. Hill. A few parts have been updated by "Grandpa" the Author of Bye Bye Big Brother to reflect new historical developments.
The ultimate way to avoid government control of your life and your property is to become invisible.
Ideally, you should never "belong" to any one government.
Big Brother should never know: and perhaps most important,
✔️ Who your are
✔️ Where you live
✔️ How you make your money
✔️ Where you keep your assets
And perhaps most important...
✔️ Where you like to "play."
The philosophy behind these ideals is to become a "PT," that is, a Perpetual Tourist, Parked Temporarily, a Prior Taxpayer who is now a Possibility Thinker and Prepared Thoroughly for the future.

To succeed as a PT you will compartmentalize your life under these FIVE FLAGS:
✔️ 1. Passport and Citizenship. Any country unconcerned about activities of its offshore citizens. Definitely NOT your present home country.
✔️ 2. Business Base. Places where you actually make your money. Again, different from your personal fiscal domicile.
✔️ 3. Domicile. A tax haven with good communication where wealthy, productive people can be creative and enjoy prosperity with bank secrecy and little threat of social unrest
✔️ 4. Asset Haven. A place from which assets, securities, and business affairs can be managed anonymously, by proxy.
✔️ 5. Playgrounds. Places where you actually spend your time, enjoying life to the fullest.
Over 400 pages of possibilities to raise your own Five Flags and become a PT. Multi-millionaire author, Dr. W.G. Hill, details with fascinating case histories and personal anecdotes how he has made-and keeps-both his freedom and his money.
The philosophy behind these ideals is to become a "PT," that is, a Perpetual Tourist, Parked Temporarily, aPrior Taxpayer who is now a Possibility Thinker and Prepared Thoroughly for the future.

About the Author
YOU WON'T FIND W.G. Hill ON ANY BESTSELLER LISTS, BUT IT'S HARD TO FIND A MILLIONAIRE WHO HASN'T READ MOST OF HIS $100 "SPECIAL REPORTS."
Dr. W.G. Hill is the father of the PT concept. Hill is a former American citizen, entrepreneur, self-made millionaire, author, and inveterate traveler, was influenced by the concepts of Harry Schultz. He had found a winning formula on which to base his future. In 1979, after years of living a PT lifestyle and fine-tuning many new ideas, In 1985, Hill wrote the first definitive book on the subject, entitled "PT." This valuable work discusses the essence of the philosophy and is definitely recommended reading for Anyone who aspires to a free and uncompromising way of life.
Hill's Low Profile -- The name W.G. Hill isn't bandied around much in the book-publishing world. No literary society has ever discussed any of the two dozen or so volumes this author has produced. But over the last forty years, in the world of bankers, accountants, high net worth investors, and financiers with offshore interests, Hill has been a seminal influence.
His most famous book is PT, or "Perpetual Traveller." Though this title might convey the idea that it's a book about traveling, it isn't. The subject is how wealthy people can - with proper paperwork - enjoy life more. Its "How to have a good time with your money, but at the same time avoid unwelcome attention that conspicuous consumption and high profile wealth always bring." These negatives include the unwelcome intrusions of tax collectors, insurance salesman, contingent fee plaintiff's lawyers, alimony seeking ex-wives, kidnappers, burglars. Not to mention every description of con-man.
Do these matters concern millionaires? Judging from Hill's book sales, they do, indeed. One of his early fans was the newsletter guru, Sir Harry Schultz, who must have made enough beforehand or sold enough books to live well.
(In 1964, Harry D. Schultz - the world's highest-paid financial consultant, according to "Guinness Book of World Records.")
Sir Harry writes in PT, "I spent my first few years as a tax exile at the Monte Carlo Beach Hotel, interacting with hard-bodied, high maintenance cost divorced women who in their topless bikinis populated Riviera pool sides like motes in the sunshine."
Hill's books always offered his personal services to assist any reader in accomplishing the goals set out. For instance, his 1975 Lloyd's Report promised the reader would "make serious money without any investment, work or risk." This was two decades before many Lloyd's names did, in fact, suffer substantial losses. But Hill wrote later, "If people handled their Lloyd's relationships as I suggested (with stop-loss insurance), they came out way ahead." Hill charged a hefty fee to introduce new names and get them into Lloyd's as insurance underwriters.
Eventually, around 1985, Hill's maneuvers were picked up and, after that, published by Nicholas Pine. Pine was then operating as Milestone Press of Plymouth, England. He was a minor publisher of books for collectors of ceramics. Their typical press run in the pre-Hill days was a thousand copies. With Hill's books for millionaires soon selling like hotcakes, Milestone hit pay dirt. Pine changed his company's name to Scope International.
An ex-employee revealed that at the time he quit, sales of well over 100,000 copies of each Hill book would have been "a low ballpark figure." With ten books being major sellers and a direct mail price of £60 / $100 per book, that means that gross sales of Hill's books passed the 100 million dollar mark some years ago. As marketers who sell direct via advertising and junk-mail, that means most revenues go directly to the bottom line. Although book sales figures are not available to the public (through bookstores), this could mean that little known Scope, by publishing the works of a mystery man who disappeared ye

This is without a doubt one of THE greatest books I have ever read. It is a philosophy that I seek to attain as a personal lifestyle.

This is a book about awareness and readiness. It is also samizdat literature. It offers a toolset and a preparedness framework to make you adaptive, flexible, open-minded, and difficult to control. It is much like the concept of being "FI" in the book Your Money Or Your Life, or the concept of "self-sovereignty" in The Sovereign Individual: it's a mentality, a paradigm, and by adopting it you eventually make it so.
In the modern era of creeping neo-feudalism, it has never been more important to remember your freedoms and make sure you hang onto them, even if that means pic... [see the rest on my book review site.]

The moment I received this book, I could not put it down. It changed my whole philosophy of life and world view. While some aspects of the book may be outdated, the underlying philosophy of self-responsibility and individualism regardless of your place on the planet is unchanged.

Although the book is dated now (published in the mid 1990's I think?); this is a must-read for anyone considering or already living the '5-flags' international lifestyle.
Certainly motivates me to start getting more international residencies.

Message from the editor The PTsecrets Web. This is W. G. Hill's Official website.
While PT: The Perpetual Traveler HAS the status of being "collector's item" the buyer should be informed this book was written many years ago and it contains outdated information that DOES NOT work anymore.
While PT: The Perpetual Traveler holds its status as a historical record and a collector's item, no one should use old information as a roadmap into the offshore world.
SOME People buy these books as a guide to the offshore world but today they are no longer suitable due to the many changes in the laws and policies of "Big Brother" after the events of 9-11.
The Offshore world has changed. Some people like to read about the Permanent Tourist life or the offshore world but they never intend to do anything about it. For them PT: The Perpetual Traveler is fine. Why? Because it provides a historical record of the times when it was much easier and cheaper to get second passports and periods where many countries and tax havens were much more open to immigration. Getting residence was free and involved little more than registering with the local police. Nowadays, readers will need the guidance of newer manuals like Bye Bye Big Brother, by “Grandpa”.
Many websites offer ancient, a worthless tax haven and offshore information and long dead solutions. Selling our old outdated information, books and reports are neither authorized by us nor is it ethical. Not only that, only our own book buyers get an email conference with the author, “Grandpa”, an ex-lawyer (who hates lawyers) and a long experienced PT. Our readers can get a preliminary opinion on any move or second passport option. Many readers have saved thousands of dollars by avoiding the scams that are 99% of the bogus deals offered on the internet. Plus, only our readers will be invited to join a free PT (members only) questions and answers forum of experienced travelers who escaped from Big Brother to earn invisible incomes and become "new citizens" of approximately 50 countries.
