Description

The counter-economy is big business and it is worth £150 billion in the UK. Taking its principles from Libertarianism and Agorism, the shadow economy will always have its place in society. As long as there are people from low economic backgrounds who struggle to make ends meet in the 'white' economy then shadow markets will exist. For some, it is a dream to ignore the taxation, controls and regulations set by a government. This book looks at the various markets in the UK with case studies of people who ran a profitable enterprise only to be eventually caught. The book also explores how to set up and run a black market business and how to keep it away from trouble. After reading this book you will be amazed at how enterprising individuals achieved amazing amounts of income by going against the rules!
