It seems that the Stones' financial deals are often in the media. Google shows countless articles in the last 20 years centered specifically around the bands tax aversion tactics. Fortune Magazine even made a cover story of it in 2001. With that, I ask, is what the Stones are doing with Dutch banking really all that unique? Why is it a constant Stones story if anyone with deep pockets can do it? Wouldn't any number of hugely successful actors or music artists (or their business managers) making tens of millions of $$$ each year such as Tom Cruise, Shania Twain, Taylor Swift, etc. also have access to and be thoroughly well versed in these same tax havens? Yet we never see similar articles about their financials at all. Why The Stones ?
Just one of many examples:
Stones Rolling in it, Thanks to Dutch Firm, Tax Havens
Are The Rolling Stones infamous tax shelters really all that savvy ?
