A good introductory account

This brief tutorial on offshore banking of course omits various advanced complexities. But it is a fine first look. The author constantly has an eye on compliance issues which is a good approach, because this is not a place for people to tread uninformed.

Worthless

What disappointed you about Offshore Banking & Foreign Bank Account Reporting (FBAR) Guide?

The quality of information in this book is as close to being a zero as I can imagine. It was a total waste of my time and energy.

What could Curt Matsen have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

He could have eliminated droning on and on about addresses and telephone numbers and set forth substantive "why's" for filing. This was like reading a first grade book: See Sally run? See Jane run?

Would you be willing to try another one of Phil Baker’s performances?

Doubtful.

What character would you cut from Offshore Banking & Foreign Bank Account Reporting (FBAR) Guide?

There are no characters other than an author who apparently gets paid by the word, thus squeezes everyone of them to death and beyond.

Any additional comments?

Don't buy this; keep looking and avoid anything this author offers. He uses this form to try to solicit new business. If I were on my last leg being pulled into the prison cell by the ugliest G-Man, I would NOT hire this fellow. Ever.
