Financial Advisor Drumright

Are you in search of a financial advisor to assist with your financial planning and retirement planning? If so, you’ve come to the best place. We are Oklahoma City Financial Planning Pros and we are excellent financial advisors. First of all, congratulations on being wise enough to seek professional help in this most important part of your life.

As you are aware, we only get this one chance at life and one chance to get this right. Life goes by far too fast. If we decide to go it alone and fall short of where we need to be, it’s often difficult to make up for lost funds. The longer you put this off, the more challenging it will be to come back and achieve your financial goals. According to a recent Forbes survey, just 52% of pre-retirees seek out the assistance of a financial advisor or financial planner. The survey also found that pre-retirees who do secure professional help have more profitable financial performance than those who do not. It’s smart to seek help from a smart financial advisor.

Most people start with basic questions like: (1) How much do I need to retire? (2) What’s the real difference between an IRA vs 401k? (3) How much do I need to save for retirement? (4) Do I need alternative investments? (5) SEP IRA vs ROTH IRA, which is better? The list of questions goes on and on. Finance and investing can be very complex and mind boggling sometimes.

We are known for providing simple, proven and very effective financial strategies to help clients reach your financial and retirement goals. After all, we have learned if a solution it too complicated to learn, it will be too challenging to implement and watch and thus will not be acted upon in the first place. That’s why we keep things simple.

Our first goal in financial planning and helping you reach your financial goals is to first get a baseline of where you are today financially. Are you on track to achieve your financial and retirement goals? Many people have no idea at all. As we know for sure, before you can get to where you want to go, you first need to discover where you are right now.

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

Lots of our clients use them all the time running various “what it” ideas to see how minor edits in their financial planning can impact their net 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 would like to retire, the amount you currently have saved for retirement now, how much you put in on an annual basis, your desired annual income during your retirement years, the approximate rate of return you are currently getting on your investments and the rate of return that you estimate you will achieve during your retirement years. That’s it. Then you just click the calculate button.

The results of your numbers pull up right away. It will clearly show you if you are on track to obtain 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 are not on goal, the calculator will even show you the 4 main areas that you can change to help you reach your goals. Based on your findings you can go back and plug in some different combinations of amounts and keep going back and forth to see if you can reasonably make edits to obtain your financial goals.

It’s really quite fun to do. For most people it’s a real eye-opener. Knowing where you are now and being honest about your current standings is half the battle.

Note: We work with many high net worth clients who love using our plans to grow their portfolios and protect themselves from soaring tax rates, creditors, soaring fees and keeping their accounts private and off the Government radar. However, most of our clients consider themselves to be mostly average.

If you are not on track to reach your investment 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.

As financial planners, often our next step is to help protect you from spending more than you need to 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 largest 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 expenditure

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

You put in 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 invest it. On the surface this may not seem as good as your IRA or 401(k) but please keep reading. We will clearly demonstrate how our program will significantly out perform 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 emergency, an unexpected expense, an unexpected opportunity or investment, college savings or anything under the sun, you can simply take your money out at any time. We will show you how you will be able to take out your money at any time you wish with no penalties, no fees and no taxes.

Then, when you retire, ALL 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 proposing 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 now, most experts believe that our future tax rates will have no option but to rise sharply.

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

Retirement Planning Drumright

The next step we take in successful retirement planning is to get you protected from losing money in the stock market. Second to taxes, stock market losses are the next big issue that can destroy your retirement dreams and keep you working for much longer than you wanted to. Many investors lost upwards of 50% of their money in the Dot Com crash of 2000. Then, just 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 enter into retirement. When the crash triggered and they lost about 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 market losses and crashes, and yes, it really is possible.

With our powerful plan you are 100% guaranteed not to lose a single penny due to market downturns, losses or crashes. I cannot even begin to tell you how much peace of mind this gives to our clients. Imagine how much deeper you could sleep at night knowing that you were completely guaranteed not to lose a cent in market declines. This one feature by itself can make the difference between you having the retirement of your dreams or not.

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

Wealth Management Drumright

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 plan that we offer is that our program gives you the option, if you choose to use it, to leverage your returns and actually earn two different returns, on the same funds, at the same time. Yes, we know the first time most people 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 primarily been used by wealthy families, politicians and giant corporations. Believe me, they do know the best ways to protect their wealth from taxes and losses. That’s why they use these plans so widely. Now these plans are more available to the main stream and not just the wealthy.

Here is a high level look at how the leveraging option could work. Many clients choose our blended index option that has a 0% 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 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 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 get permission from anyone to do this. You are not limited to a list of investment options. You get to choose to put your funds 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 zero percent to 17% each year. Then you decide to borrow 80k from the account and put it into a great 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 deal. So you are affectively 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 plan is to give us a call. We’re happy to talk 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 would 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 wait. 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.
