Groundwork, it's all about the groundwork. Laying the foundation to ensure that, when you punt, there is no chance of you being caught or found out.
I have stuck to this approach and never been caught in 25+ years of punting.

Hard to explain what it is, you almost need some acumen about it. One example, I've punted plenty of times in HK while still married to my HK ex-wife. We'd travel to HK and stay with relos for weeks on end. On those trips, I'd spend all my time with her, and then allocate 1 or 2 days where I can go out on my own. That's when I punt.

Or as football said, he only punts when he travels for work. That's another solid foundation right there.
