Financial Advisor Eakly

Are you trying to find a financial advisor to assist with your financial planning and retirement planning? If so, you’ve come to the most perfect place. We are Oklahoma City Financial Planning Pros and we are experienced financial advisors. First of all, congrats on being brilliant enough to seek out professional help in this most important area of your life.

As you already know, we only get one chance in life and one chance to get this right. Life goes by way too fast. If we try and go it alone and fall short of where we need to be, it’s often difficult to make up for lost growth. The longer you delay, the harder it will be to come back and reach your retirement goals. According to a recent Forbes survey, only 52% of investors seek out the help of a financial advisor or financial planner. Forbes also discovered that those who do look for professional help have more successful financial gains than pre-retirees who do not. It’s smart to obtain help from a good financial advisor.

Many people start with basic questions like: (1) How much money do I need to retire? (2) What’s the real difference between an Individual Retirement Account and an 401k? (3) How much do I need to save for retirement? (4) What alternative investments can I invest in? (5) What can I do to insure I never lose money? The list of questions goes on and on. Finance and investing can be very complex and mind boggling sometimes.

We pride ourselves on 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 difficult to learn, it will be too challenging to set up and monitor and thus will not be acted upon in the first place. That’s why we keep things simple.

Our first step 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 reach your financial and retirement goals? Many people have no idea in the world. As we know, before you can get to where you need 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 really easy to use, yet very effective. Our simple retirement calculators are totally 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 them frequently running various “what it” calculations to see how small shifts in their financial planning can impact their end results. The first simple retirement calculator we suggest you begin with could not be any simpler to use. You simply type in your age, the age you wish to retire, the amount you currently have saved for retirement now, how much you put in on an annual basis, your desired yearly income during your retirement years, the approximate rate of return you are currently realizing on your accounts and the rate of return that you hope you will achieve during your retirement years. That’s all there is. Then you simply click the calculate button.

The results of your numbers 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 are not on track, the calculator will even show you the 4 main areas that you can change to help you reach your goals. Based on those 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 obtain your retirement goals.

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

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

If you are not on track to obtain 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, most often 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 expenditure 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 their mortgage payments, car payments and college for their kids, etc.

That’s why it is so important for us to focus on this major cost and reduce your taxes as much as you can. We believe that our flagship 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 program works.

You invest after taxed dollars to our plan. Yes, unlike your 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 contribute 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 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 funds out at any time. We will show you exactly how you will be able to access your funds at any time 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 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 totally 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 Eakly

The next action 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 event that can end your retirement dreams and keep you working for much longer than you hoped to. Lots of investors lost upwards of 50% of their accounts in the Dot Com crash of 2000. Then, just as most 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 portfolios.

Millions of hard working Americans were just getting ready to enter into retirement. When the crash happened and they lost just 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 want to get our clients 100% protected from market losses and crashes, and yes, it truly is possible.

With our powerful plan you are completely guaranteed not to lose a single dollar due to market downturns, losses or crashes. I cannot even begin to express to you how much peace of mind this makes possible to our clients. Imagine how much easier you could sleep at night knowing that you were guaranteed not to lose a cent in stock market declines. This one feature of our 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 stock market goes up, we 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. Our plan is smart on steroids.

Wealth Management Eakly

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 our program gives you the option, if you want to use it, to leverage your returns and actually earn 2 different returns, on the exact 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 it 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 average person and not just the rich.

Here is a high level look at how the leveraging option could work. Many clients choose the blended index plan that has a 0% floor and a seventeen percent 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 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 in the planet 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 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 0% to seventeen percent each year. Then you decide to borrow $80,000 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 0% to 17% on the entire 100k account value.

Additionally you earn whatever return you get on your $80,000 that you put into your real estate deal. So you are actually earning two 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 amazing 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 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 could 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.
