Walters Financial Planning & Retirement Planning – Financial Advisor 405-418-6266

Financial Advisor Walters

Are you in search of a financial advisor to help 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 experienced financial advisors. First off, congrats on being brilliant enough to search for professional help in this critically important area of your life.  

As you already know, we only get this one chance in life and one chance to get this right. Life goes by way too fast. If we attempt to go it alone and fall short of where we need to be, it’s often challenging to make up for lost results. The longer you delay, the more difficult it will be to produce better returns and achieve your retirement goals. According to a recent Forbes survey, only 52% of investors seek out the help of a financial advisor or financial planner. They also revealed that people who do secure professional help have stronger financial returns than people who do not. It’s smart to ask for help from a good 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 an Individual Retirement Account and an 401k? (3) How much should I save for retirement?  (4) What about 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 blowing sometimes.

We are known for providing simple, proven and very effective financial strategies to help you reach your financial and retirement goals. After all, we realize 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 always keep things simple.

 

Financial Planning Walters

Our first goal in financial planning and helping you reach your financial goals is to first get a starting point of where you are today financially. Are you on track to exceed your financial and retirement goals? Scores of people have no idea at all. As we know, before you can get to where you wish to go, you first need to learn where you are at this time.

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 quick and 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 these very often running various “what it” scenarios to see how little changes in their financial planning can impact their total results. The first simple retirement calculator we suggest you use could not be any simpler 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 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 investments and the rate of return that you hope you will achieve during your retirement years. It’s that easy. Next you just click the calculate button.

The results of your numbers pull up immediately. It will 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, the calculator will even show you the four key areas that you can change to help you reach your goals. Based on the findings you can go back and key in some different combinations of numbers and keep going back and forth to see if you can reasonably make changes to achieve your goals.

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

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

If you are not on track to achieve 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 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 live.

 

Walters 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 amount most Americans spend on taxes is the single biggest financial expense of their life? Most people have no clue, 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 most important for us to focus on this major cost 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 powerful way to protect yourself and save on taxes that is legally allowed in this great country of ours. It really is that powerful. In a nutshell, this is how our program works.

You contribute after taxed dollars to our plan. 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 funds before you contribute it. On the surface this may not appear as good as your IRA or 401(k) but please trust us. We will clearly show you how our program 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 emergency, 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 how you will be able to access your funds at any time you wish 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 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 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 having to pay any taxes on the money you pull out. This one benefit alone can make or break most people’s retirement dreams.

 

Retirement Planning Walters

The next task we take in our retirement planning is to get you protected from losing money in the stock market. Second to taxes, market losses are the next big event that can end your retirement dreams and keep you working for much longer than you needed to. Far too many investors lost upwards of 50% of their funds 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 retirement accounts.

Millions of hard working Americans were just getting ready to retire. When the crash occurred and they lost almost half of everything they had spent a lifetime building up, 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 market losses and crashes, and yes, it really is possible.

With our unique 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 provides to our clients. Imagine how much deeper you could sleep at night knowing that you were guaranteed not to lose a cent in stock market declines. This one feature of The Barefoot Retirement 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 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 Walters

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 plan that we offer is that the plan gives you the option, if you wish 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 you hear this, it sounds too good to be true and may even question if it is legal. We promise 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 huge 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 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 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 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 that money 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 funds into anything you want or need to, no problem.

Let’s use an example. Say you have 100k in your Barefoot Retirement account. That $100,000 earns between 0% to 17% each year. Then you decide to borrow $80,000 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 0% to 17% on the entire $100,000 account value.

Additionally you earn whatever return you get on your 80k that you put into your real estate investment. So you are affectively 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 patented 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 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 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.
