If we attempt to go it alone and come in short of where we ought to be, it’s often challenging to make up for lost ground.

According to a recent Forbes survey, just 52% of individuals look to get the assistance of a financial advisor or financial planner. They also revealed that investors who do seek out professional help have more profitable financial returns than people who do not. It’s wise to find 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 do I need to save for retirement? (4) Do I need alternative investments? (5) Do I need life insurance? The list of questions goes on and on. Finance and investing can be very complex and mind boggling sometimes.

We specialize in 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 complex to grasp, it will be too difficult to set up and monitor and thus will not be acted upon in the first place. That’s why we like to keep things simple.

Financial Planning Minco

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

In our alignment 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 user friendly to use, yet very effective. Our simple retirement calculators are totally 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 these all the time running various “what it” concepts to see how small tweaks in their financial planning can impact their end results. The first simple retirement calculator we suggest you start with could not be any easier to use. You simply enter in your age, the age you desire to retire, the amount you currently have saved for retirement now, how much you invest on an annual basis, your desired annual income during your retirement years, the approximate rate of return you are currently earning on your portfolio and the rate of return that you hope you will achieve during your retirement years. That’s it. Next you simply click the calculate button.

The results of your inputs 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 tell you exactly how far off you are in funds, years and percentages. If you’re not on goal, it will even show you the 4 key areas that you can make changes to to make sure you reach your goals. Based on the findings you can go back and key in some different combinations of amounts and keep going back and forth to see if you can reasonably make changes to reach your retirement goals.

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

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

If you are not on track to reach your 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.

Minco 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 dollars most Americans spend on taxes is the single largest financial expense of their life time? 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 expenditure 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 most powerful way to protect yourself and save on taxes that’s legally allowed in this amazing country of ours. It truly is that powerful. In a nutshell, this is how our program works.

You contribute 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 invest it. On the surface this may not appear as good as your IRA or 401(k) but please stay tuned. We will clearly show you how our program will blow away these other plans, without a doubt!

You funds then grow tax differed within your account. If you need the funds for any reason at all like an illness, 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 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 such a big thing. At the time this is being written, Bernie Sanders is running for President. He is suggesting a 92% top Federal marginal tax rate. Yikes! 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 choice but to rise sharply.

By setting up a Barefoot Retirement Plan you can totally protect yourself from having 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 Minco

The next step we take in our retirement planning is to get you protected from losing money in the stock market. Next to taxes, market losses are the next big thing that can end your retirement dreams and keep you working for much longer than you hoped to. Many investors lost upwards of 50% of their funds 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 their money.

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

With our one-of-a-kind plan you are completely guaranteed not to lose a single dime 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 deeper you could sleep at night knowing that you were guaranteed not to lose a dime in market declines. This one feature of The Barefoot Retirement 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. Our unique plan is smart on steroids.

Wealth Management Minco

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 plan gives you the option, if you wish 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 it 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 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 wealthy.

Here is a high level look at how the leveraging option could work. Many of our clients choose our blended index plan that has a zero percent floor and a seventeen percent cap. So if the value of the indexes’ tracked goes up 20% in a given year, you earn seventeen percent on your account, and your gains are always locked in. Or, if the value of the indexes goes down 20%, you maintain your zero percent floor and have 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 ask 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 seventeen percent 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 $100,000 and you continue to earn the zero percent to seventeen percent on the entire $100,000 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 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 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 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 put this off. 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.
