Financial Advisor Washington
Are you looking for a financial advisor to assist with your financial planning and retirement planning? If so, you’ve come to the best place. We are Oklahoma City Financial Planning Pros and we are excellent financial advisors. First off, congratulations on being wise enough to search for professional help in this very important part of your life.
As you already know, we only get this one chance at life and one chance to get this right. Life goes by much too fast. If we decide to 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 more challenging it will be to make up lost ground and reach your retirement goals. According to a recent Forbes survey, just 52% of Americans look to get the help of a financial advisor or financial planner. They also discovered that investors who do secure professional help have better financial gains than those who do not. It’s smart to get help from a smart financial advisor.
Many people start with basic questions like: (1) How much money do I need to retire? (2) How much to save for retirement? (3) How much will I need to retire? (4) Do I need alternative investments? (5) ROTH IRA vs 401(k), which is better? The list of questions goes on and on. Finances and investing can be very complex and mind boggling sometimes.
We pride ourselves on providing simple, proven and very effective financial strategies to help you 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 implement and watch and thus will not be acted upon in the first place. That’s why we keep things simple.
Financial Planning Washington
Our first step in financial planning and helping you succeed financially is to first get a starting point of where you are today financially. Are you on track to achieve your financial and retirement goals? Most people have no idea what-so-ever. 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 easy, we have produced 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 completely 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 very often running various “what it” scenarios to see how minor shifts in their financial planning can impact their overall results. The first simple retirement calculator we suggest you start with could not be any simpler to use. You simply key in your age, the age you desire to retire, the amount you currently have saved for retirement now, how much you contribute on an annual basis, your desired yearly income during your retirement years, the approximate rate of return you are currently getting on your portfolio and the rate of return that you wish you will achieve during your retirement years. That’s all there is. Then you just click the calculate button.
The results of your numbers pull up instantly. 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 are not on goal, the retirement calculator will even show you the 4 main areas that you can make changes to to help you obtain your goals. Based on your findings you can go back and key in some different combinations of amounts and keep going back and forth and see if you can reasonably make adjustments to achieve your investment goals.
It’s really much fun to do. For most people it’s a real eye-opener. Discovering where you are right now and being honest about your current finances is half the battle.
Note: We work with quite a few high net worth individuals who love using our strategies to grow their funds and protect themselves from soaring tax rates, creditors, soaring fees and keeping their accounts private and off the Government radar. However, most of our clients consider themselves to be pretty average.
If you are not on track to obtain 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 last.
Washington 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 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 on any other expenditure
That’s why it is so important to focus on this major cost and reduce your taxes as much as you can. We believe that our primary 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 great country of ours. It truly is that powerful. In a nutshell, this is how it works.
You contribute post taxed dollars to The Barefoot Retirement 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 invest it. On the surface this may not seem as good as your IRA or 401(k) but please keep an open mind. We will clearly demonstrate how our plan will out perform 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, college 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 get your funds 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 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 at this time, most experts believe that the future tax rates will have no option but to rise sharply.
By setting up a Barefoot Retirement Plan you can completely protect yourself from needing to pay any taxes on the money you pull out. This one benefit alone can make or break most people’s retirement plans.
Retirement Planning Washington
The next step we take in successful 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 crush your retirement dreams and keep you working for much longer than you needed to. Large numbers of 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 next market crash of 2007/2008 and many investors lost another 40% to 50% of everything.
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 creating, it was devastating. That is why our team at Oklahoma City Financial Planning Pros works so hard every day. We work to get our clients 100% protected from market losses and crashes, and yes, it really is possible.
With our unique 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 brings to our clients. Imagine how much better you could sleep at night knowing that you were guaranteed not to lose a penny in market declines. This one feature of the 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 Washington
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 plan that we offer is that our plan gives you the option, if you choose 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 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 mainly been used by wealthy families, politicians and huge corporations. Believe me, they 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 investor 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 account 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 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 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 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 $100,000 earns between zero percent to 17% each year. Then you decide to borrow 80k 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 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 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 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 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.
