Blair Financial Planning & Retirement Planning – Financial Advisor 405-418-6266

Financial Advisor Blair

Are you in search of a financial advisor to assist with your financial planning and retirement planning? If so, you’ve found the best place. We are Oklahoma City Financial Planning Pros and we are experienced financial advisors. First off, congratulations on being brilliant enough to search for professional help in this super important area of your life.

As you know, we only get this one chance at life and one chance to do this right. Life goes by far too fast. If we attempt to go it alone and fall short of where we need to be, it’s often hard to make up for lost funds. The longer you wait, the more challenging it will be to catch up and achieve your financial goals. According to a recent Forbes survey, only 52% of individuals look to get the help of a financial advisor or financial planner. The survey also found that individuals who do obtain professional help have more successful financial returns than individuals who do not. It’s wise to ask for help from a smart financial advisor.

Lots of people start with basic questions like: (1) How much do I need to retire? (2) What’s the real difference between a IRA and 401k? (3) How much should I save for retirement? (4) What’s the story on alternative investments? (5) How can I save on taxes? The list of questions goes on and on. Finances and investing can be very complex and mind blowing sometimes.

We specialize in providing simple, proven and very effective financial strategies to help people reach your financial and retirement goals. After all, we have learned if a solution it too difficult to understand, it will be too challenging to set up and review and thus will not be acted upon in the first place. That’s why we keep things simple.

Financial Planning Blair

Our first goal in financial planning and helping you reach your financial goals is to first get a starting point of where you are today financially. Are you on track to obtain your financial and retirement goals? Many people have no idea what-so-ever. As we know for sure, before you can get to where you need to go, you first need to discover where you are right now.

With our plan and with keeping things easy, we have created a series of our own, custom retirement calculators like; a retirement savings calculator, a retirement planning calculator and various retirement planning tools that are user friendly to use, yet very effective. Our simple retirement calculators are completely free to use and they are online, so you can log on and use them at any time it is convenient with you and your schedule.

Many of our clients use these all the time running various “what it” calculations to see how little shifts in their financial planning can impact their total results. The first simple retirement calculator we suggest you start with could not be any simpler to use. You simply plug in your age, the age you wish to retire, the amount you currently have saved for retirement now, how much you invest on an annual basis, your desired yearly income during your retirement years, the approximate rate of return you are currently getting on your accounts and the rate of return that you hope you will achieve during your retirement years. It’s that easy. Now you simply click the calculate button.

The results of your inputs pull up immediately. It will tell you if you are on track to achieve your retirement goals or not, and if not, it will tell you exactly how far off you are in funds, years and percentages. If you’re not on goal, the retirement calculator will even show you the 4 main areas that you can make changes to to make sure you obtain your goals. Based on the findings you can go back and plug in some different combinations of amounts and keep going back and forth and find out if you can reasonably make changes to reach your financial goals.

It’s really much fun to do. For most people it’s a real shocker. Finding out where you are right now and being honest about your current situation is half the battle.

Note: We work with a lot of high net worth people who love using our strategies to grow their funds and protect themselves from rising tax rates, creditors, soaring fees and keeping their accounts private and off the radar. However, many of our clients consider themselves to be pretty average.

If you are not on track to reach your financial goals, please don’t be discouraged. Today 61% of Americans fear running out of money during retirement more than they fear death itself! Our objective and our job is to work with you and help you get your finances on track and help you create a lifetime, tax-free retirement income that will last as long as you live.

Blair Financial Planners

As financial planners, usually our next step is to help protect you from spending more than you should on taxes and also protect you from what we believe will be, future tax rate increases. Did you know that the amount most Americans spend on taxes is the single biggest financial expense of their life? Lots of people have no idea, yet it is true for most of us. The average American spends more on taxes than they do on on any other single expenditure.

That’s why it is so important to focus on this major cost and reduce your taxes as much as possible. We believe that our flagship financial plan that we happen to call The Barefoot Retirement Plan is the single most successful way to protect yourself and save on taxes that is legally allowed in this great country of ours. It truly is that powerful. In a nutshell, this is how our plan works.

You invest post taxed dollars to the plan. Yes, unlike an IRA and 401(k) (which are called qualified plans) where you put in pre-taxed dollars, our plan requires you to pay the tax on the funds before you contribute it. On the surface this may not appear as good as your IRA or 401(k) but please keep reading. We will clearly demonstrate how our plan will beat the pants off of these other plans, without a doubt!

You funds then grow tax differed within your account. If you need your funds for any reason at all like sickness, an unexpected expense, an unexpected opportunity or investment, university savings or anything at all, you can simply take your money out at any time. We will show you exactly how you will be able to access your funds at any time with no penalties, no fees and no taxes.

Then, when you retire, 100% of your retirement funds that you pull out to live on are completely and totally free of taxes. This is so powerful. At the time this is being written, Bernie Sanders is running for President. He is wanting a 92% top Federal marginal tax rate. Wow! Plus last week the US debt just surpassed the 19 Trillion mark. (If you look at our National Debt Clock, it will blow you away.) It only took us 13 months to go from 18 trillion to 19 trillion. With the way things are going now, most experts believe that our future tax rates will have no choice but to rise sharply.

By setting up a Barefoot Retirement Plan you can completely protect yourself from needing to pay any taxes on the funds you pull out. This one benefit alone can make or break most people’s retirement plan.

Retirement Planning Blair

The next task we take in our retirement planning is to get you protected from market losses. Second to taxes, market losses are the next big event that can end your retirement dreams and keep you working for much longer than you planned to. Large numbers of investors lost upwards of 50% of their funds in the Dot Com crash of 2000. Then, just as soon as many of them were just getting back to where they were before the last crash, we had the mortgage/housing market crash of 2007/2008 and many investors lost another 40% to 50% of everything.

Millions of hard working Americans were just getting ready to begin retirement. When the crash occurred and they lost about half of everything they had spent a lifetime creating, it was devastating. That is why our team at Oklahoma City Financial Planning Pros works so hard every day. We work to get our clients 100% protected from market losses and crashes, and yes, it really is possible.

With our patented plan you are totally guaranteed not to lose a single cent due to market downturns, losses or crashes. I cannot even begin to express to you how much peace of mind this provides to our clients. Imagine how much easier you could sleep at night knowing that you were guaranteed not to lose a dollar in market declines. This one feature of our plan can make the difference between you having the retirement of your dreams or being wiped out.

When you get our plan set up, when the market goes up, we lock in your gains each year. When the market goes down, you lose nothing and your previous gains are locked in and protected from losses. This plan is smart on steroids.

Wealth Management Blair

We also assist our clients with wealth management to insure they reach their investing and financial goals. One of the powerful benefits of our unique and patented flagship program that we offer is that the plan gives you the option, if you want to use it, to leverage your returns and actually earn two different returns, on the exact same money, at the same time. Yes, we know the first time you hear this, it sounds too good to be true and may even question if it is legal. We assure you this is squeaky clean and as legal as legal gets.

Until recently plans like ours have mostly been used by wealthy families, politicians and huge corporations. Believe me, they know the best ways to protect their money from taxes and losses. That’s why they use these plans so widely. Now these plans are more available to the average investor and not just the rich.

Here is a high level look at how the leveraging option could work. Many clients choose the blended index account that has a zero percent floor and a 17% cap. So if the value of the indexes’ tracked goes up 20% in a given year, you earn 17% on your money, and your gains are always locked in. Or, if the value of the indexes goes down twenty percent, you maintain your 0% floor and have no losses at all.

You then have the option to borrow the majority of the money from your account. (You have to do this correctly and we’ll show you how), and you can then invest that money into ANYTHING in the planet that you wish. You don’t have to ask permission from anyone to do this. You are not limited to a list of investment options. You can choose to put your money into anything you want or need to, no problem.

Let’s use an example. Say you have $100,000 in your Barefoot Retirement account. That $100,000 earns between 0% to 17% each year. Then you decide to borrow 80k from the account and put it into a sweet real estate deal you found. Since you borrowed the funds from your account and did not take them out, your account value remains 100k and you continue to earn the zero percent to 17% on the entire 100k account value.

Additionally you earn whatever return you get on your 80k that you put into your real estate investment. So you are actually earning 2 different returns on the same funds at the same time. This is a powerful strategy and can have a very positive impact on your total returns.

We could go on and on about all of the many benefits of this unique plan but we are limited in space here. The best way to get more information on this program is to give us a call. We’re happy to speak with you and answer any of your questions. More importantly we are happy to schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation with you to best determine if this might be a good fit for you and if so, we can run some numbers and show you exactly what a Barefoot Retirement Plan could look like for you.

I encourage you to take action now. You know how things pop up and our attention can be lost in a moment. This is far too important to leave to chance. Don’t hesitate. You have nothing to lose. Give us a call right now and at least take the first step towards what could be the best move of your life. We’re looking forward to talking with you.
