We are Oklahoma City Financial Planning Pros and we are smart financial advisors. First of all, congrats on being wise enough to look for professional help in this super important area of your life.

As you already know, we only get one chance in life and one chance to make this right. Life goes by much too fast. If we attempt to go it alone and come in short of where we ought to be, it’s often hard to make up for lost ground. The longer you hold off on this, the more challenging it will be to produce better returns and achieve your financial goals. According to a recent Forbes survey, just 52% of investors look to get the assistance of a financial advisor or financial planner. They also found that those who do obtain professional help have stronger financial results than people who do not. It’s wise to seek help from a experienced financial advisor.

Most people start with basic questions like: (1) How much money 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) Do I need alternative investments? (5) ROTH IRA vs 401(k), which is better? The list of questions goes on and on. Finance and investing can be very complex and mind blowing sometimes.

We pride ourselves on providing simple, proven and very effective financial strategies to help people reach your financial and retirement goals. After all, we know if a solution it too complicated to learn, it will be too challenging to use and monitor and thus will not be acted upon in the first place. That’s why we like to keep things simple.

Financial Planning Davenport

Our first goal in financial planning and helping you reach your financial goals is to first get a benchmark of where you are today financially. Are you on track to reach your financial and retirement goals? Most people have no idea what-so-ever. As we know, before you can get to where you wish to go, you first need to find out where you are at this time.

With our plan and with keeping things simple, 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 go online and use them at any time it is convenient with you and your schedule.

Many of our clients use them all the time running various “what it” scenarios to see how small tweaks in their financial planning can impact their overall results. The first simple retirement calculator we suggest you start with could not be any easier to use. You simply type in your age, the age you want to retire, the amount you currently have saved for retirement now, how much you contribute on an annual basis, your desired yearly income during your retirement years, the approximate rate of return you are currently getting on your investments and the rate of return that you believe you will achieve during your retirement years. It’s that simple. Now you just click the calculate button.

The results of your numbers pull up right away. It will show you if you are on track to achieve your retirement goals or not, and if not, it will show you exactly how far off you are in funds, years and percentages. If you are not on goal, the calculator will even show you the four main areas that you can change to help you obtain your goals. Based on those findings you can go back and enter in some different combinations of numbers and keep going back and forth and see if you can reasonably make adjustments to achieve your financial goals.

It’s really quite fun to do. For most people it’s a real shocker. Discovering where you are right now and being honest about your current finances 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 soaring tax rates, creditors, soaring fees and keeping their investments private and off the Government grid. However, most of our clients consider themselves to be pretty average.

If you are not on track to obtain 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 do.

Davenport Financial Planners

As financial planners, often our next step is to help protect you from spending more than you should on taxes and also protect you from what we think 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 time? Many people have no clue, 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 most important to focus on this major cost and reduce your taxes as much as you can. We believe that our best financial plan that we happen to call The Barefoot Retirement Plan is the single most effective way to protect yourself and save on taxes that is legally allowed in this fantastic country of ours. It truly is that powerful. In a nutshell, this is how our plan works.

You contribute post taxed dollars to the plan. Yes, unlike an IRA and 401(k) (which are called qualified plans) where you contribute pre-taxed dollars, our program requires you to pay the tax on the funds before you put them in. On the surface this may not appear as good as your IRA or 401(k) but please keep an open mind. We will clearly demonstrate how our program will blow away these other plans, bar none!

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, college savings or anything under the sun, you can simply take your funds out at any time. We will show you how you will be able to take out your funds at any time you wish with zero 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 such a powerful thing. 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 shock you.) It only took us 13 months to go from 18 trillion to 19 trillion. With the way things are going at this time, 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 dreams.

Retirement Planning Davenport

The next task we take in our retirement planning is to get you protected from losing money in the market. Next to taxes, stock market losses are the next big cause that can ruin your retirement dreams and keep you working for much longer than you hoped to. Many investors lost upwards of 50% of their money 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 next market crash of 2007/2008 and many investors lost another 40% to 50% of their retirement accounts.

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

With our one-of-a-kind plan you are completely guaranteed not to lose a single dollar due to market downturns, losses or crashes. I cannot even begin to tell you how much peace of mind this brings to our clients. Imagine how much deeper you could sleep at night knowing that you were totally guaranteed not to lose a dollar in stock market declines. This one feature of the plan can make the difference between you having the retirement of your dreams or being devastated.

When you get our plan set up, when the market goes up, you 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. Our unique plan is smart on steroids.

Wealth Management Davenport

We also assist our clients with wealth management to insure they reach their investing and financial goals. One of the strong benefits of our unique and patented flagship program that we offer is that our program gives you the option, if you want to use it, to leverage your returns and actually earn 2 different returns, on the 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 guarantee 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 mega corporations. Believe me, they do know the best ways to protect their funds 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 our blended index option that has a zero percent floor and a 17% cap. So if the value of the indexes’ tracked goes up twenty percent in a given year, you earn 17% on your funds, and your gains are always locked in. Or, if the value of the indexes goes down 20%, you maintain your zero percent floor and suffer no losses at all.

You then have the option to borrow the majority of the funds from your account. (You have to do this correctly and we’ll show you how), and you can then invest those funds into ANYTHING under the sun that you wish. You don’t have to seek permission from anyone to do this. You are not limited to a list of investment options. You get to 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 100k earns between zero percent to 17% each year. Then you decide to borrow 80k from the account and put it into a profitable 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 seventeen percent 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 affectively earning two different returns on the same money 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 powerful plan but we are limited in space here. The best way to get more information on this plan 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 may 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.
