When you are protecting your assets, the most important thing to realize is that there will be people looking to get your money and assets from underneath you. Think about it, what would be the point of even sending these assets offshore if there was no one out to get you? You have to be very careful and keep your eye out for sneaky people who will find ways to innocently become a part of your life. Don't let all your hard work be lost because of a stupid mistake.

One particular occupation to look out for are private detectives. These people are usually very trained and motivated, as they work for themselves, and they are also a little bit desperate, as their success depends on their results, to find something on you. They have no problem bending the law, as long as they don’t get caught, to try to pin some assets onto you. If you have an enemy who seems to reach a dead-end, watch out for private detectives who may be under their salary.

How can private detectives get information about you? Think about it this way, what if you have cable television. Your provider has your information, maybe even your bank account number that you are paying from. How easy would it be for a private detective to steal your bills from your mailbox or call the company pretending to be you? How easy would it be for them to dress up as an employee of the cable company and walk into your house, with your permission, and look for evidence to use against you? These guys are smart and sneaky and will stop at nothing to earn their paycheck.

So how can you protect your assets from these people. Frankly if you are keeping all your eggs in one unsafe basket, the United States, there is a good chance you can’t. Detectives are very good at what they do and can operate unnoticed because of the fact that they are usually unknown and keep their identity secret, funny how they won’t let that go both ways huh?

So what can you do? Put your most valuable assets in Panama as discussed before. You have a less chance of having them compromised by some detective looking to make a name of himself and are protected further by the laws of the country.
