In fact, whether the rich tax should be levied or not is a topic in many countries that are plagued by deficits during the financial crisis.

The purpose of the rich tax was to reduce the debt deficit. But in fact, even if the "rich people's tax" is actually implemented, those taxes that may be received are really a waste of money for the billions of deficits in each country or state.

The rich tax has a long history of being a policy tool for countries to adjust income and wealth distribution and resolve disparities between the rich and the poor, so New York State is not the first region to operate on the rich.

Just whether it can pass, even if it passes, whether it can persist, is an unknown.

After all, over the years, many countries have been eager to tax the rich. However, few countries actually do this.

The main reason is that excessive taxation will lead to an irresistible immigration frenzy in the wealthy world, and the direct result will be the loss of social wealth and the shrinking tax base. To be honest, the levy of "rich people's tax" is really "drinking thirst and quenching thirst." In the long run, it will inevitably have a negative impact on the introduction of external investment and the long-term development of enterprises.

See why so many rich people are heading to the United Kingdom, you can clearly understand the choice of rich people.

However, one thing that will not change is that the rich are always the target of taxation in various countries.

In fact, from the point of view of Andy, it is really not that important to levy a wealthy tax. It does not matter who owns the wealth. The more efficient use of capital is the key.

Wouldn't it be better for a super-rich man to make use of the huge wealth in his hands to continue to grow his company, create more jobs, and make more people rich?

In particular, those who rely on the development of the real economy or those with a high-tech development are very respectable. As for building a house, haha ​​...

Of course, for New York State to levy a wealthy tax, the rich in the United States will not obediently give the hard-earned money to the U.S. government, and the "old drivers" who have worked hard in the capital market for half their lives will not Silly, tax avoidance methods are constantly emerging.

For example, the stock **** Buffett told investors more than once in public that he chose a stock and held it for a long time. This is not only his investment strategy, but also his tax avoidance method. Buffett paid $ 1.85 million in federal income taxes last year. Some people wonder how, as the world's top richest person, it is possible to pay so little a year. The secret lies in holding stocks.

According to the laws of the United States, holding stocks for more than one year, as long as they are not cashed out, no tax is charged on the investment principal and profits. If cashed out, the low- and middle-income groups will be completely exempt from taxes, and the tax rate of the top rich will not exceed 20%. Compared with the maximum tax of 43.4%, the tax has more than doubled. Therefore, long-term ticket holding is not only a reflection of value investment, but also a treasure trove of tax avoidance.

Therefore, this time Andy spent so much money to buy the US stocks, not just as simple as the bottom, but also to avoid taxes.

Not to mention other charitable donations, the mainstream tax avoidance methods of offshore companies, and various tax avoidance methods commonly used by rich people.

Of course, there are also tax avoidance methods that are risky by the Bank of America, that is, misrepresentation of income. Since the US Internal Revenue Service only audits 1% of the country's tax returns every year, it is entirely possible to successfully avoid tax. The bad situation is to make up for taxes on time. And this trick, Andy's prospective father-in-law played the sixth most, has been doing so for more than ten years, and can give him at least 50 million dollars in tax avoidance each year.

In fact, the line between legal tax avoidance and illegal tax evasion is often blurred. American courts or the Internal Revenue Service itself are very familiar with various tax avoidance methods. The richest Americans will avoid taxes through various means and will never seriously pay the full tax. Amount of taxes.

This is also the main reason why rich Americans, including Andy, spend money to support a group of tax lawyers.

Whether it is the wealthy tax or other tax issues, it does not cause much trouble for Andy, so although the next few days, the issue of the taxation of the wealthy in New York State has caused discussions and concerns throughout the United States. But, Andy's main energy is still to arrange a series of work after he left the United States.

As the chairman of the three listed companies of Qualcomm, Starbucks and Gales Apparel, Andy can no longer be a wayward shopkeeper like that before. Although he still wo n’t stay in one of the companies, he will appear in one week. Once, presided over the meeting. After all, for these three companies, he Andy Smith is not an absolute controlling shareholder, and there is still a risk of sidelines.

Some time ago, I made a bottom-up of U.S. stocks. Andy took advantage of the opportunity to conduct a large-scale stock repurchase of these three companies, which increased his shareholding ratio again, especially for Starbucks' control.

However, because Qualcomm's stock price has been performing well since he took over. Although it has also acquired a lot in the secondary market, it still cannot occupy an absolute right to speak. It also needs to attract some institutional shareholders to cooperate and seek their stand by.

Andy wants to get rid of this constraint, and Alvitre has always made high-priced acquisitions of shares in the hands of some institutional shareholders. Therefore, it is only a matter of time for Andy to completely control Qualcomm. After all, Many institutional shareholders will abandon long-term investments for high short-term returns.

So, after a few days, Andy was really busy staying on the ground, waiting until he had everything arranged and boarding the flight to Hawaii, it was already the morning of April 3.

"Sorry, my dear, I've already flown to Hawaii and I can't accompany you to the 44th American Country Music Awards ... Well, don't be upset, you'd better go to Hawaii for a holiday and rest after the award ceremony. Just a moment, you have been really tired recently. "

On the plane, Andy smiled and coaxed Taylor Swift, who was a little unhappy on the phone, concerned.

"It's a bit tiring. You're awful. Say good. Come to Australia to participate in my" fearless "tour. You release me pigeons ..." Talking again, Taylor condemned the phone again.

"Sorry, sorry, dear, you know, I have big things to do, but that night, your golden long dress sparkled across Sydney. It was really great and I am really proud of you." Andy smiled and said good things to coax her.

"Hum! I will never forgive you again next time!" Taylor's tone became a little happy on the phone.

"Yes, do you like the gift I gave you?" Andy laughed.

"Oh, thank you Andy, I like it very much, but will there really be a box office?" Speaking of this, Taylor on the other side of the phone was also very happy, because Andy made her "fearless" tour into After the documentary is ready to be released on the big screen, Taylor is a little worried about the box office. After all, once the box office is too bad, it will be shameful.

"Don't worry, your fans will buy it very much. Your presence will undoubtedly bring country music that has been quiet for many years into a dynamic world. Because of you, country music is more appealing to fans outside the United States than before. This is a fait accompli to the fans of the city. Dear, you have to believe me, maybe it will surpass the box office of many movies, know that everything is possible! "Andy knows how big the market for the fan economy is, touring Earn money once, make money again with disciplinary films, and then release a collector's edition of Blu-ray DVDs, and you can make another.

"Andy, seriously, I really appreciate my fans' love and support for me." Taylor thought of the pursuit during the tour, and she cherished those fans.

"Ha ha, then be nice to them. When the documentary is released, you can run a few more theaters and give them some big surprises." Andy laughed.

"Good idea, great ..."
