Comment on How can a US citizen invest outside the reach of the federal government?

well, first you would need to set up a brokerage account outside the US…

For now, though, you can invest in an Ex-US ETF, Vanguard has one that is essentially the total world stock index minus US companies.

Can a US citizen set up a brokerage outside the U.S.? If so, where?

I’m not talking about investing in foreign companies; I’m talking about where I can keep my money (other than “under the mattress”) that the federal government can’t seize/freeze.

  Well, they can seize a lot of things because of reciprocal anti-terrorism money laundering agreements with most of the countries you’d want to trust with your money.
  
  resources aimed at wealthy people offshoring their assets might be useful to you

  Put it around a pretty woman’s neck.

  Look for a decent country’s citizen. 😉
