PT, Permanent Tourist, Perpetual Traveler
First, Look At This 2 Minute Movie.
The grand old man of investments and freedom marketing, Harry Schultz, has put together information that is seldom talked about. There is a book list on a perpetual traveler Squidoo lens of powerful PT books that can help you expand your life. Also available online are downloads of Dr. W.G. Hill's P.T. -- The Permanent Tourist; a classic road map to the PT lifestyle.
PT has many meanings besides permanent tourist; from the old Paper Trippers to modern seekers of a Post Tyranny lifestyle. Ultimately it is what the PT lifestyle can do for you as an individual that counts.
The basic PT concept is also called three flag theory.
- Have your citizenship somewhere that does not tax income earned outside the country.
- Have your investments in a low or no tax stable country.
- Live as a tourist in third countries where what you enjoy is legal, maybe even valued.
Countries usually treat tourists better than their citizens - believing they own their citizens and treating them as cows. Their citizens are herded, penned, branded, milked, and/or slaughtered. Tourists however are courted and treated well as they bring in cash.

Do you find it horrible to think of not being owned by the government where you were born? If not bureaucrat tipping (BT) is a way to find a bit of freedom, and humor, in our slavery prone world.
If you are serious about investing, here are the basics for success in any type of investment, in any investing climate. And here is a bit on investing that deals with rules for financial success and a route to financial freedom. Or if you want to start your own business that will travel with you, check this business opportunity page.
You will also find some information on Possibility Thinking at the Bastiat Free University College of Liberty. If this is all too much, start simple. List all of your beliefs, and question where you learned them and who taught them to you. Now -- make up your own mind to your own satisfaction.
Most of what you believe was taught to you by someone taught by another, taught by another. Like in the game post office, time and repetition change the original meanings. Original uncertainty tends to be replaced by those taught to act certain. Delve into your commitments and decide for yourself which beliefs you will retain, which beliefs you will modify or abandon.
Don't be more committed to any institution or person than they are willing to be directly committed to you.
The Sovereign Life newsletter provided this extended list of PT meanings: Perpetual Traveler, Permanent Tourist, Prior Taxpayer, Possibility Thinker, Post Tyranny, Privacy Tactician.

How many people live as Permanent Tourists? That would be interesting to know about how many people are citizens without a country.
A good name, Phoenix.
Thanks for the comment.
Technically they have a country. They choose to live in another where they are treated better and that better reflects their world view.
For instance if you love to drive fast, live in Germany with the Autobahn. If you smoke grass - live in Amsterdam where it is served in a cafe; - rather than somewhere it is a lifetime in jail if caught.
There are just a few countries in the world that tax their citizen's world wide income, no matter where their citizens live. Other countries force military service on citizens, and engage in constant unpopular wars. Those are some of the countries where someone might give up their birth citizenship and switch to another.
Otherwise, most will retain their birth citizenship, and may add another citizenship to it for safety and other reasons.
If you have a job that moves with you, even changes within a country, from New York to New Hampshire say, can make a huge difference in your retained earnings and lifestyle.
Most countries even allow an expatriate, or expat, to visit home for extended periods. As long as you are a qualified legal resident of another country, your first flag may treat you as a tourist for short stays.
There are many who travel, work, or live in foreign countries who know nothing of PT theory. A PT is someone that does it intending to optimize their life.
The BFU privacy statement puts our slant on a part of PT:
We believe that privacy is a basic tenet of freedom; we will not use your information without a request from you. We will never willingly share your information without your permission.
As a "PT" who lives and trades currencies from Panama, it was enjoyable running into your blog. Keep the good ideas flowing...
