[Closed] TwiceT is not afraid of global warming, thus moves to the south

gameplan for upcoming 2 weeks:

collect as many questions/ideas as possible about my moving to gib/spain and post them here in an unstructured way.

01.08.: send in a structured list of questions to hadi aka TwiceTPersonalMoveItToGibConsultant (vodka is on me @ next party my friend )
14.08.: have all questions answered by him/pokerstrategy/pros who are already living down there

so whenever i think about something where i dunno the max value line i will post it here and after 2 weeks im collecting all posts and structure the stuff in "how-to move to gib/spain guidelines"

if i dont think about some issues, pls post your comments here. i would be very grateful.

and ofc, if u plan on moving down there yourself and have some additional questions, dont hesitate to post them.
however, for this thread gib/spain related only.

taxation:
for poker income in gib is 0% (is that everything i need to know?)
difference between online and live winnings? difference in live winnings from europe/asia/usa?

what is the official notation? "poker pro"? is there a differenciation between live and/or online pros?

is it stated in taxation laws that "earnings from poker are tax free" or is there just no law that covers earnings of poker players??

[@ uni i wrote a 90 pages paper with 2 colleagues about tax havens. i focused on gibraltar and from my research 2 years ago, gib seems to be the place to go for companies. so its good to have some bank accounts there already for my future ventures ]

social insurance:
what do i need to know?
in austria i have an "official job" where i automatically have insurance stuff covered.
is there a mix of public/private insurance for poker players?

if i need a job for insurance, u can give me one @ your office, but im just working 4 hours/week or so that i use for disturbing vali/soy/hadi & co and getting vodka coaching by thomas ♦
do some of the pros have an agreement with ps (like working 4 hours a week or producing 2 videos for being employed officially?)

registration office:

i need to register in gib + have an apartment to get bank accounts
how does the registration office check how many days/weeks/months i'm rly in gib? do they check at all?

cuz my plan is to disturb ps employees and produce vids from time to time @ office and party with you guys @ weekends regularly, but im def. not living on a daily basis in gib. is that a prob? (travelling around the globe + house for baller living style in spain close to gib border)

additional question: are there any rooms in apartments free atm? cuz i dont rly need my own apartment. just one room is enough since i wont be living there 365 days a year.
if so, lemme know!

apart from setting up my financial headquarter in gib & travelling around the globe to get to know some cool areas of our world, i need a home in the south of spain, close to gib.

mansion @ spain:

1) can u recommend some good estate agents?

2) which cities/towns should i chose? santa margarita? sotogrande? estepona? marbella? fuengirola (a bit far away already but still ok)

3) i want: golf course rly rly close (yaya, dont flame me guys! golf rockz! ofc tennis court wouldnt hurt either) [and yeah, i will have some table tennis action going in my party room. sidebets anybody?(actually, i also take sidebets @ golf !]

4) at least small town with some potential of action (take some spanish language courses, play some pool, get some vodka in a club, nice restaurants ...)

5) pool in front of my grinding room

6) kart racing next to my house wouldnt hurt either if no cart racing, i need some funky streets to go crazy with my car

car:

what's my line?
- keep my audi tt roadster?
- if yes ..... sign off from insurance contract and get one in spain? or rather wait 6 months and decide then what to do?
- sell tt in austria and get some sicko car in spain (are cars cheap in spain like in germany?!) seat is produced in spain, right? do they have some crazy seat lean cupra R rallye version or so ?!

accomodation while looking for apartment/house

- does ps have a free apartment where i can stay 10-14 days as long i dont have my own? (yeah ofc i pay for it u greedy gangsters )
- does anybody know anybody that has a free room for ~ 2 weeks?

BUMP

About taxation, is there a capital gains tax? I heard in UK there is this tax between 18-28%. So if we live in Gibraltar and we earn money via stocks/options/etc. what are our costs?

Edit: I did look at some other wiki pages about Gib specifically and they told me this: In Gibraltar there is no capital gains tax, wealth tax, sales tax or value added tax.

So can anyone confirm this?

Any info on how hard it is to get a visa for permanent residency (I'm over in Canada though only reason I'm asking is for maybe some plans in the future)

@ joenaes: let's discuss that in skype next days

@ kpk: afaik, this shouldnt be a big problem as soo many germans are living down there atm.

btw: in case u dont follow my main blog: this blog is dying cuz i found a good solution in austria, consulted by tax experts in vienna. wont move to gib (at least for now). however, deffo going to visit the crazy guys down there soon
