Yet
others say the rich are simply following the new rule of capital –
money will move where it’s treated best. Technology has allowed the rich
to run their businesses and investments from anywhere in the world. And
while taxes play a role in the decision, relocation experts say
culture, education and climate also play roles among the rich. He said
some of the U.S. rich are looking to Britain and Switzerland as well as
other larger countries in Europe that don’t necessarily have the lowest
tax rates.
“It’s
not just about taxes,” Mr. Lesperance said. “They’re not necessarily
moving to small islands anymore. They want to go where they can
replicate their lifestyle, run their businesses, educate their children
and eat at great restaurants and enjoy the culture. They don’t want to
be on an island where you say, “Well, we’ve eaten at the same three
restaurants already. Now where do we go?’

The Mass Migration of the Super-Rich
It appears from my research that the French, Americans, Russians and the Chinese are the ones most likely to move to protect themselves and their wealth during these times of political and economic uncertainty. However, it is also true of the rich from every nation on earth as well.
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
