Financial Advisor Perkins

Are you looking for a financial advisor to assist with your financial planning and retirement planning? If that’s right, you’ve come to the best place. We are Oklahoma City Financial Planning Pros and we are top notch financial advisors. First of all, congratulations on being wise enough to seek professional help in this really important part of your life.

As you know, we only get one chance at life and one chance to get this right. Life goes by much too fast. If we attempt to go it alone and fall short of where we should be, it’s often difficult to make up for lost funds. The longer you delay, the more challenging it will be to catch up and achieve your financial goals. According to a recent Forbes survey, just 52% of Americans ask for the help of a financial advisor or financial planner. They also discovered that investors who do secure professional help have more profitable financial performance than pre-retirees who do not. It’s smart to seek help from a smart financial advisor.

Many people start with basic questions like: (1) How much money do I need to be able to retire? (2) How much money do you need to retire? (3) How much should I save for retirement? (4) What about alternative investments? (5) What can I do to insure I never lose money? The list of questions goes on and on. Money 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 have learned if a solution it too difficult to grasp, it will be too difficult to use and review and thus will not be acted upon in the first place. That’s why we always keep things simple.

Financial Planning Perkins

Our first goal in financial planning and helping you succeed financially is to first get a baseline of where you are today financially. Are you on track to achieve your financial and retirement goals? Lots of people have no idea what-so-ever. As we know, before you can get to where you want to go, you first need to learn where you are right now.

With our plan and 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 simple and 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.

Lots of our clients use them all the time running various “what it” ideas to see how little edits in their financial planning can impact their end results. The first simple retirement calculator we suggest you begin with could not be any easier to use. You simply type in your age, the age you would like to retire, the amount you currently have saved for retirement now, how much you add to on an annual basis, your desired yearly income during your retirement years, the approximate rate of return you are currently earning on your accounts and the rate of return that you hope you will achieve during your retirement years. It’s that simple. Then you simply click the calculate button.

The results of your inputs pull up immediately. It will clearly 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, it will even show you the 4 critical areas that you can change to be sure you obtain your goals. Based on those findings you can go back and key in some different combinations of amounts and keep going back and forth and discover if you can reasonably make changes to achieve your 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 situation is half the battle.

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

If you are not on track to reach 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.

Perkins Financial Planners

As financial planners, usually our next step is to help protect you from spending more than you need to on taxes and also protect you from what we believe will be, future tax rate increases. Did you know that the dollars most Americans spend on taxes is the single biggest financial expense of their life? Most 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 for us to focus on this major expenditure and reduce your taxes as much as you can. We believe that our best 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 fantastic country of ours. It truly is that powerful. In a nutshell, this is how our program works.

You invest post taxed dollars to the program. 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 money 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 blow away 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 money out at any time. We will show you exactly how you will be able to access your money at any time you wish 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 such a powerful 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 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 significantly.

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 hopes and dreams.

Retirement Planning Perkins

The next task we take in our retirement planning is to get you protected from market losses. Next to taxes, market losses are the next big event that can destroy your retirement dreams and keep you working for much longer than you needed to. Lots of investors lost upwards of 50% of their funds 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 mortgage/housing 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 building up, it was devastating. That is why the team at Oklahoma City Financial Planning Pros works so hard every day. We strive to get our clients 100% protected from market losses and crashes, and yes, it truly is possible.

With our patented plan you are 100% guaranteed not to lose a single dime due to market downturns, losses or crashes. I cannot even begin to tell you how much peace of mind this makes possible to our clients. Imagine how much better you could sleep at night knowing that you were guaranteed not to lose a dollar in market declines. This one feature alone 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, 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 plan is smart on steroids.

Wealth Management Perkins

We also assist our clients with wealth management to insure they reach their investment and financial goals. One of the amazing benefits of our unique and patented flagship plan 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 mainly 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 average person and not just the wealthy.

Here is a high level look at how the leveraging option could work. Many of our clients choose the 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 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 money from your account. (You have to do this correctly and we’ll show you how), and you can then invest that money into ANYTHING in the world 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 80k 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 $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 affectively earning 2 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 patented 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 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 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.
