Get Your Tax & Financial Affairs Organised Now
One of the most common questions Location Independent entrepreneurs have is this: Should I incorporate my business if I want to leverage my location independent status & minimize my tax liabilities?
It’s a great question but one that can’t easily be answered by an ebook (although that can help get you started) since it requires in-depth knowledge of your own individual circumstances together with an excellent grasp of international tax affairs which change on an almost weekly basis.
The problem is that consulting with a professional tax attorney or financial planner is expensive – we know somebody in our community who was quoted $250 per hour for this sort of advice. We know that you, like us, probably can’t afford those sorts of fees.
But for a comparatively affordable sum you can avoid making any expensive mistakes (like the one we made, of incorporating in Panama) – which is why we’ve put together the following options…
The LIP Freedom Financial Packages
The LIP Freedom Financial Packages have been created by LIPs for LIPs…which means that the guidance provided is specifically for people who are location independent. We understand that for this advice to be truly valuable, it must be up-to-date, global and tailored to your personal circumstances. That’s what you’ll get with the following options…
The Individual Consult
An individual consult is ideal if you’d like an affordable option to discuss your personal circumstances with somebody who really knows what they’re talking about and can point you in the right direction. This is a great place to start if you’re not sure whether your individual circumstances & available options warrant a more in-depth review.
Here’s what you get with the Individual Consult:
- Initial questionnaire for you to share your personal circumstances
- A 60-90 minute phone/skype consult to discuss your options
Your Investment: $197, payable in advance.
“Indispensable, unrivaled advice for independent professionals who travel the world. Marion does a great job of breaking down complex concepts and regulations into practical explanations and no-nonsense advice. Simple, structured and targeted to your unique circumstances.
I lost over one year trying to decipher the international tax code and looking for international tax advisors who would not cost the earth yet offer sound professional advice (not the type who suggest you open an offshore this or offshore that). Spare yourself the pain, the money and time lost and achieve peace of mind when you book an appointment with Marion to start sorting out your finances and tax situation.” Mar Higuera
The Personal Review
An in-depth, fully personalized report tailored to your individual financial circumstances. The review equates to around 15-20 hours of work & is possibly the most cost effective option available, if you consider that at $200 per hour (the average rate most professionals of this kind will charge), you’ll usually pay $3,000+ for this information.
Here’s what you get with the Personal Review:
- Initial questionnaire for you to share your personal circumstances
- An initial 60m phone/skype consult to gather more information (if needed)
- An in-depth report outlining your personal options & step-by-step guide to implement the suggested approach
- A 60m follow-up consult to discuss your report & answer any further questions
Your Investment: $1,497, with 50% payable in advance & the balance prior to receipt of your full report.
Follow-up Consult
These are available to existing clients only, after having an Individual Consult or a Personal Review with us:
- A single email response or 30m phone consult for $97
- A 60m phone consult for $147
The Very Important Small Print
The information offered by the Freedom Financial Packages is for guidance and orientation only and is not intended to replace the licensed and regulated advice you will find on offer in individual countries.
Whilst every effort is taken to ensure that facts are correct at the time each case is processed, tax laws and individual plans/circumstances have a tendency to change very rapidly (on the whim of a government or the client!) and as such, no liability can be accepted for actions that you take as a result of following any of the suggestions made.
There is a good reason for this: with the aim of keeping the cost of these services as low as possible, we are not in a position to execute any parts of individual action plans e.g. incorporating a company in a particular country, tax returns or ongoing book-keeping services. That said, we do hold a worldwide list of very reasonably priced and personally recommended professionals at your disposal who do provide such services.
If you’re working on a tight budget, as most location independent entrepreneurs are, you might well find that a cost effective alternative to an international tax attorney is for you to take advantage of a Freedom Financials Package and then engage the services of a trusted member of our network to execute your plan.

Marion Harrington
Marion Harrington has lived a very varied and colorful 47 years and was originally educated as a classical clarinettist. In 2000 she retrained as a financial planner & launched her own company.
She quickly developed a specialty in international tax matters and went on to establish a reputation as “the maverick tax guru” with lawyers, major financial concerns and clients as a result of authoring a very serious academic tax research paper and the fact she chose to do business with high net worth clients in shorts and a t-shirt.
These days, Marion is immersed full-time on her own quest to become location independent. When she’s not consulting with individual LIP clients, writing the next country-specific LIP Tax & Finance Guide or providing daily up to the minute international tax news on Twitter @LIPfinances, she’s working on her first album, having finally reignited her love affair with the clarinet.
