#042 - How To Never Pay Income Tax In Australia (2026 Guide) · Beyond Sovereignty

• 0:00
  Income tax isn't paid by everybody. Sanitarium Weet-Bix
• 0:04
  hasn't paid it in 125 years
• 0:07
  because a church owns it. Seven Day Adventists, Sports
• 0:12
  Girl, Cotton On, Coles, Woolies, JB Hi-Fi are
• 0:15
  all sitting behind a structure that doesn't pay it either.
• 0:19
  Most people believe income tax is just what you pay if
• 0:22
  you earn money in this country. But the reality is, income
• 0:25
  tax attaches to the structure you're in. not to
• 0:29
  you as the person. And there are four things you
• 0:32
  need to understand about who's exempt and how they got
• 0:35
  there. Over the past 20 years, I've helped hundreds of
• 0:39
  entrepreneurs to set up and run not-for-profit structures legally
• 0:43
  and compliantly. So in this episode, I'm going to be stepping you through
• 0:46
  what income tax actually is, who in this country
• 0:50
  doesn't pay it, and the email the ATO sent us
• 0:54
  the day they made one of our organisations tax exempt.
• 0:57
  You want to know how to not pay income tax? It's actually not that hard.
• 1:01
  Our system, our legislative system will tell you how if
• 1:05
  you're looking in the right places. So, learning to
• 1:08
  be income tax exempt is simple. All
• 1:11
  you need to know is what is income tax and who pays
• 1:15
  it and who doesn't pay it. So,
• 1:19
  income tax is for middle class people to pay
• 1:22
  taxes. Now, you don't have to
• 1:26
  be a middle income earning taxpayer. You
• 1:29
  can have structures that you direct that pay
• 1:33
  different taxes or that are tax exempt and
• 1:36
  it's completely up to you. Now, when you have structures set
• 1:40
  up the right way, you get messages from the ATO like
• 1:44
  this As you can see, this is from the Australian Tax Department
• 1:48
  and they have approved our charity and they have
• 1:51
  said, congratulations, you are now income
• 1:55
  tax exempt. If you would like further endorsements
• 1:59
  from the ATO, we would love to support you. Not
• 2:03
  only that, we're going to backdate you so
• 2:06
  that you are income tax exempt from six months ago.
• 2:11
  So when you know how to deal with your authorities in
• 2:14
  your country, whether that be Australia or another country, when you know
• 2:17
  how to deal with them, when you know what structures to set up, then
• 2:21
  you can be income tax exempt and you can avoid
• 2:25
  paying income tax legally and the government is
• 2:28
  there to just say, congratulations, you're doing a great job.
• 2:32
  Okay, now I'm also putting these other two organizations that are Australian
• 2:36
  well-known. So, in most local shopping centers, we've
• 2:39
  got a Sports Girl. Sports Girl is a retailer that is
• 2:43
  known everywhere across Australia. Now, look at their charity.
• 2:47
  This is how they offset taxes in Sports Girl. And
• 2:52
  you might be thinking, okay, maybe that's just one of these organisations, one
• 2:55
  of these retailers. In your local shopping centre in Australia,
• 2:59
  we've got Sports Girl, we've got Cotton On, we've got Woolworths, we've got
• 3:02
  Coles, we've got JB Hi-Fi. They all have
• 3:06
  charities and it's how they offset their taxes.
• 3:10
  So, then we've also got, and as you can see, these are multi-billion dollar charities.
• 3:14
  Then we've got the Pratt Foundation. Now, this is from Visi Packaging. Now,
• 3:18
  this is a very well-known Australian brand. Most people are like, who the hell's that? Look
• 3:21
  on all the freight trucks that go past, and anybody
• 3:25
  that's doing packaging, it comes generally from Visi Packaging, a lot of
• 3:28
  it in Australia. Weet-Bix, Australian sanitarium
• 3:32
  Weet-Bix. you probably have no
• 3:35
  idea that they have been an income tax entity for
• 3:40
  125 years. That's right, 125 years
• 3:43
  of Weet-Bix, Australia's number one morning cereal, is
• 3:47
  tax exempt because it is a charity. What
• 3:51
  the hell charity owns it? The Seven Day Adventist Church. The
• 3:55
  Seven Day Adventist Church of Australia owns Weet-Bix. Weet-Bix
• 3:59
  is its health promotion product. And
• 4:03
  this product is completely tax exempt. And
• 4:07
  the Seven Day Adventist Church, multi-billion dollar
• 4:11
  organisation because they don't pay tax.
• 4:15
  And all of that cash goes into their charity so
• 4:19
  that they don't have to pay any tax on it and they can spend it on whatever
• 4:23
  they would like. Now, I want to give you an
• 4:26
  example of this. One of my best friends, and
• 4:30
  she knows who she is, so one of my best friends, her
• 4:33
  son used to work for a church organisation, and
• 4:37
  they got flown all around the world to perform their
• 4:40
  music. How did that happen? How
• 4:44
  did they get wages? How did they travel the world? On
• 4:47
  the charitable donations from their congregation. The
• 4:52
  thing is, this is not a taboo subject. This
• 4:55
  is what every single elite is doing. Even
• 4:59
  just the McDonald's in East Queensland is a
• 5:02
  multi-billion dollar organisation. It's a
• 5:06
  charity, Ronald McDonald House, and that is one of many in
• 5:09
  Australia. Across the world, it
• 5:13
  must be in the trillions that they are making, because if each one
• 5:16
  of them is a multi-billion dollar organisation, that adds up
• 5:19
  to numbers that I have probably never even seen before. And
• 5:22
  again, these are either multi-million or multi-billion dollar
• 5:26
  charities. And all of their financial information is
• 5:30
  up on the ACNC website. Because you
• 5:33
  can deal with the ATO if you wanna pay income tax, or you
• 5:37
  can deal with the ACNC, which is another part of the government,
• 5:40
  which it stands for the Australian Not-for-Profit Commission.
• 5:45
  And the Australian Not-for-Profit Commission is who gives you
• 5:48
  other endorsements so that you can be income tax exempt. So
• 5:52
  why would you have a PTY LTD when you have to pay 30 to
• 5:57
  70% of every dollar you lose to taxes? When
• 6:00
  you could deal with the ACNC who will allow
• 6:04
  you to maintain that 30 to 70% and use
• 6:07
  it for your charitable purposes. Your next
• 6:11
  question might be, well, I'm not a charity. How could I be a charity?
• 6:15
  All you have to do is be of service and
• 6:18
  not be a profiteer. Now, you could be saying, but
• 6:22
  I want to be a profiteer. I want to profit. Do you? Because where's your
• 6:25
  money going to go? Is it going to go to your family? Is it going to go to your community? Is
• 6:28
  it going to go to investments? Is it going to go to property? Is it
• 6:32
  going to go to creating an impact and a legacy? Well, guess what?
• 6:35
  They're all charitable causes. You don't have to be in a PTYLTD
• 6:39
  paying tax for your, and losing all of that
• 6:43
  money that goes to the government. You have a choice in
• 6:46
  Australia and in every country around the world where your
• 6:49
  funds go. But you just need to work with somebody who's a little bit
• 6:53
  awake who can tell you other avenues for
• 6:56
  where your taxes can go. So, when you realize that
• 7:00
  income is just for people who
• 7:04
  want to pay tax, then you realise, okay, wow,
• 7:07
  there's another way that I can structure my whole life and all
• 7:11
  of my entities so I and they can be income tax
• 7:14
  exempt. I just want you to ponder this thought for a second. Can
• 7:18
  you imagine buying a property and
• 7:22
  your stamp duty exempt, and then your
• 7:26
  capital gains tax exempt. Imagine how many
• 7:29
  multiple six figures you would save in that one purchase and sell. And
• 7:33
  a lot of you are going, no, I'd be saving seven figures. Exactly. That
• 7:37
  is how you can save seven figures on every
• 7:41
  single flip of a house or a business. You
• 7:44
  just have to have the right structure purchasing. And
• 7:48
  when you have the right structure purchasing, then your structure and
• 7:51
  you get to be income tax exempt. Because you
• 7:55
  can own nothing and be
• 7:59
  happy. That's the point. This is not a taboo
• 8:02
  area. This is not fringe. This is not unknown to the government. It's
• 8:06
  just unknown to the middle class. because the government and
• 8:10
  all of these big corporations and entities, I'm talking
• 8:14
  BHP and all of the pharmaceutical companies. These
• 8:18
  are the big organizations that are doing this, and these
• 8:21
  are the ones that influence the government. Whilst many of us
• 8:24
  just wanna be influencers on Instagram, these organizations
• 8:28
  are influencing the government. And when we as the middle class
• 8:32
  step up and actually have the same entities
• 8:35
  that the elite do, then we can also, good-hearted, caring,
• 8:40
  kind people, can change the system that
• 8:43
  we really hate. So, don't ever fight the
• 8:47
  system, learn how to infiltrate it from the inside and influence it
• 8:50
  just like one of the corporations. Guys, I have got some amazing freebies
