Hi Carol,

Thanks for asking. The first part or Beginner's Guide to Toll Positions should be available before winter is over, maybe sooner. As far as "completed" goes, well...

I'm astonished at the amount of information, after all he's been doing this for 53 years now...and it may take a couple of years, working full speed, to get the whole of it "completed". But that doesn't mean we won't have some very useful, and practical...

no theory, pulled from the 53 years of success...

information on HOW TO GET STARTED that will help us all get established in the Toll Positon, or Toll Booth aspect of passive income.

Your patience will be rewarded, there is NO ONE out there that teaches this kind of stuff...I've been at it over a year, and I've just scratched the surface...although with Mr. Brody's help, I have gained not only knowledge but also have put into practice his methodology too.

IF you have a specific question regarding Toll Booth prosperity, I'll include it in the question sheet I send to him, OK?

One of the best books I've read and tapes I've listened to is Roger Dawson's Secrets of Power Negotiating

Thanks Mack for the recommendation!

I'm sure I've seen his book around in bookstores... When I find it again, I'll pick it up and leaf through it to check it out... (and most likely get a copy)...

Cheers,

Hi friends, I work at a University and I have some visiting researchers coming over for weekly periods to engage in research. They get their salary by the company in France but I wanted to know whether we should tax them as according to my interpretation of Article 21 of the double taxation agreement, they should not pay tax in the UK. Is anyone else who have helpful suggestions on this as I am not sure if we are following the correct procedure?

Hi,

I'm no expert in this - for an expert opinion, you probably need to see an accountant.

However, many countries have double-taxation agreements. That generally means that if a person is receiving a salary from one place, and paying taxes on it, they should not be taxed in the other place. (Otherwise they would be taxed twice.)

I don't know for sure, but I would be very surprised if the UK and France didn't have such an agreement. However, to be sure, you probably need to see an accountant. You probably have accounting professionals working at your university who can tell you the answer, since I'm sure this can't be the first time this has happened...

Best of luck,

Dien

Not sure if any of this helps but it might contain some answers...

CCSharon,

Thanks for asking.

You are Not their employer or payer, so why would you want to tax them?

They don't live in your country and are not employed by anyone in your country nor paid by anyone in your country. Hence, you do not tax them. Simple. Leave their employer to do what needs to be done. They are not residents for tax purposes.

Also...Read this book:
"The Risk-free Entrepreneur: The Idea Person's Guide to Building a Business With Other People's Money"
Amazon Link
Its quite a simply written book, and gives you a good grasp of the concepts, parties, and agreements one should put in place when outsourcing products/services for a deal.
(if you look it up in google books, there are about 100 pages of the book on sample)

Thanks Johnny for the recommendation! I'll keep a lookout for it in the bookstores...

Here's a link that will take you to the Google Books page for it (it's the first link on this page)...

I've only had a quick look at it so far there - but it looks useful!

Thanks,

Thanks Phil... Great links!

(Good story too...)

I am still visiting Vietnam... I'll look into the property situation! However, I don't know what the laws are here on foreigners owning property... I know some countries put strict restrictions on it. I'll have to check it out.
