Financial Advisor Meeker

Are you trying to find a financial advisor to help with your financial planning and retirement planning? If that’s right, you’ve arrived at the right place. We are Oklahoma City Financial Planning Pros and we are smart financial advisors. First of all, congratulations on being wise enough to look for professional help in this critically important area of your life.

As you know, we only get this one chance in life and one chance to get this right. Life goes by far too fast. If we try and go it alone and fall short of where we should be, it’s often hard to make up for lost ground. The longer you delay, the more difficult it will be to come back and obtain your retirement goals. According to a recent Forbes survey, only 52% of individuals ask for the assistance of a financial advisor or financial planner. They also discovered that pre-retirees who do seek out professional help have more successful financial results than investors who do not. It’s really smart to obtain help from a knowledgeable financial advisor.

Many people start with basic questions like: (1) How much do I need to retire? (2) How much money do you need to retire? (3) How much will I need to retire? (4) What alternative investments can I invest in? (5) How can I save on taxes? 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 investors reach your financial and retirement goals. After all, we realize if a solution it too complex to understand, it will be too complicated to put in place and monitor and thus will not be acted upon in the first place. That’s why we always keep things simple.

Financial Planning Meeker

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 achieve your financial and retirement goals? Most people have no idea at all. As we know, before you can get to where you need to go, you first need to determine where you are right now.

With our plan and with keeping things easy, 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 simple and easy to use, yet very effective. Our simple retirement calculators are 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.

Many of our clients use them very often running various “what it” ideas to see how small shifts in their financial planning can impact their end results. The first simple retirement calculator we suggest you use could not be any easier to use. You simply key in your age, the age you want 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 earning on your portfolio and the rate of return that you think you will achieve during your retirement years. That’s it. Next you simply click the calculate button.

The results of your inputs pull up immediately. It will tell you if you are on track to reach your retirement goals or not, and if not, it will tell you exactly how far away you are in funds, years and percentages. If you’re not on track, the retirement calculator will even show you the four key areas that you can change to insure you obtain your goals. Based on those findings you can go back and plug in some different combinations of numbers and keep going back and forth to see if you can reasonably make changes to reach your retirement goals.

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

Note: We work with a lot of high net worth people who love using our plans to grow their portfolios and protect themselves from rising tax rates, creditors, soaring fees and keeping their funds 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 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 goal 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.

Meeker Financial Planners

As financial planners, most 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 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 any other expense.

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

You contribute post taxed dollars to the program. Yes, unlike an IRA and 401(k) (which are called qualified plans) where you invest pre-taxed dollars, our program requires you to pay the tax on the money before you contribute it. On the surface this may not look as good as your IRA or 401(k) but please trust us. We will clearly demonstrate how our plan will 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 sickness, 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 exactly how you will be able to get your funds at any time with zero 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 advocating 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 amaze 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 choice but to rise significantly.

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 plans.

Retirement Planning Meeker

The next step we take in successful retirement planning is to get you protected from market losses. Second to taxes, stock market losses are the next big cause that can destroy your retirement dreams and keep you working for much longer than you planned to. Many investors lost upwards of 50% of their accounts in the Dot Com crash of 2000. Then, just as soon 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 about half of everything they had spent a lifetime creating, 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 really is possible.

With our powerful plan you are completely 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 brings to our clients. Imagine how much better you could sleep at night knowing that you were totally guaranteed not to lose a cent in market declines. This one feature of The Barefoot Retirement Plan can make the difference between you having the retirement of your dreams or not.

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 all of your previous gains are locked in and protected from losses. This plan is smart on steroids.

Wealth Management Meeker

We also assist our clients with wealth management to insure they reach their investing and financial goals. One of the amazing benefits of our unique and patented flagship plan that we offer is that the plan gives you the option, if you choose to use it, to leverage your returns and actually earn two different returns, on the exact same funds, 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 primarily been used by wealthy families, politicians and mega corporations. Believe me, they certainly 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 main stream and not just the rich.

Here is a high level look at how the leveraging option could work. Many clients choose our blended index plan that has a 0% floor and a seventeen percent cap. So if the value of the indexes’ tracked goes up 20% 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 0% floor and experience 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 world 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 can choose to put your money into anything you want or need to, no problem.

Let’s use an example. Say you have 100k in your Barefoot Retirement account. That 100k earns between zero percent to 17% each year. Then you decide to borrow $80,000 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 $80,000 that you put into your real estate deal. 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 amazing 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 could 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.
