What strikes me, from my browsing on the PT subject, is that it
is so easy. You don't even need a starting capital, only you're able
to be more or less flexible with where and how you get your income.
Opening an offshore bank account doesn't seem more difficult than
doing it at your local bank. (It's sad that, at least here in Sweden,
tax-crime is regarded as one of the most serious crime you can
commit, in fact much worse that murder).

I think you're right when emphasizing on *structure* and not money.
For example, if you take the money you spend on an apartment and
your office (and add the none-tax bonus), you'll probably get a decent
hotel room where you can sleep and work.

The family still is and will continue to be important. But still,
its not an obstacle for the PT. Event if you travel a lot, you'll
probably want to return "home" once in a while.
