So think of 47 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 4: the phone a three to three Maggie Tax, Visit our 48 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 4: website at Maggie Tax dot com, and don't forget. Every 49 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 4: Sunday on ABCTV at ten thirty am, tune in for 50 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 4: the half an hour Maggie Tax and Financial Show. 51 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 3: So nearly all Americans believe a myth. 52 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 2: And every time savers look at their iras, they take 53 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 2: part in what they call the Great American Savings myth, 54 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 2: and they believe that money is theirs. And it's an 55 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 2: easy myth to accept. So when you look at your 56 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 2: IRA statement and let's say you have a balance of 57 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 2: five hundred thousand, and you start thinking of ways you 58 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 2: can spend the five hundred thousand, How much income can 59 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 2: you generate, What trips you're going to might want to take, 60 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 2: or where you want to finance a car or something. 61 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 2: Those are things that go through your mind. But listen 62 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 2: to me. Your account is not worth five hundred thousand. 63 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: That's because you're IRA and all qualified accounts have a 64 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 2: silent partner, Uncle Sam and the irs, and Uncle Sam 65 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 2: owns a part of your IRA and he's going to 66 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 2: collect it in taxes. And Chris, I think that's the 67 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 2: problem right now that people do not see at the 68 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: end of the rainbow as you and I do every 69 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 2: day we talk about this, and then people are just 70 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 2: totally shocked, like, Oh, I don't have that much money. 71 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 2: Why would you be shocked? You know you have to 72 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 2: pay this bill. 73 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 5: Well, that's just it. 74 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 4: I mean, you have a pile of money just sitting 75 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 4: there and it's been growing tax deferred for so many years. 76 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 4: But now it comes to the point where the distribution 77 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 4: phase is right here for you, and it's approaching or 78 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 4: you're in it right now. 79 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 5: So what do you do? But think of it this way. 80 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 4: If you have a twenty five percent tax liability, Uncle 81 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 4: Sam owns twenty five percent of that account of that IRA, 82 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 4: So that's one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars. In 83 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 4: our example that we just used, you only own seventy 84 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 4: five percent of your IRA, so you only own three 85 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 4: hundred and seventy five thousand worth of it, But so 86 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 4: think of it that way. Is that enough money for 87 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 4: you to retire? Is that enough money that you can 88 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 4: generate interest on so you can supplement that income that 89 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 4: you need every month when you retire. That's the questions 90 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 4: that you have. Those are the questions that we can 91 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 4: answer for you. So pick up the phone, schedule time 92 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,839 Speaker 4: to meet with us, because this is very crucial. Can 93 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 4: you work, should you work? Do you need to work? 94 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 4: So when we say stop funding Uncle Sam's retirement, that's 95 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,359 Speaker 4: exactly what we're speaking about. Tax deferred savings have become 96 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 4: a mainstreay of American retirement plans, and with it has 97 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 4: come the Great American savings myth. When savers plan based 98 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 4: on their IRA account values, their risk overestimating the amount 99 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 4: of assets that they actually have in retirement because they 100 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 4: forget about the tea word. Taxes, taxes, taxes. So that's 101 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 4: why it's so important to meet with us. Pick up 102 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 4: the phone, schedule time to meet with us. Let's look 103 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 4: at your tax plan, your income plant, and your investments 104 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 4: plan to show you how they all work together. 105 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 5: Do the best thing for you. 106 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 3: So what do we do about this? 107 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: So conversion strategies are gaining popularity as savers convert the 108 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 2: tax deferred assets to assets with tax free growth. And 109 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 2: we get that question every time, how do we convert 110 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 2: our money? Is it the right thing to do? What's 111 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 2: the tax going to be? And when we run a 112 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 2: mock tax return, we can strategically show you the right 113 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 2: way to do it. The naysayers often can't stomach the 114 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 2: large tax bill today, but they forget that part of 115 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 2: their IRA was never there to begin with. 116 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 3: And that's the deal you made. 117 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 2: Back when you said I'm going to take tax deferral 118 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: and pay the taxes later. And I'm sure some of 119 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 2: you are true followers of Dave Ramsey. How many know 120 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,119 Speaker 2: Dave Ramsey. Many of you are committed to getting debt 121 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 2: free in all aspects of your finances. But Ramsey and 122 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 2: his followers overlook a huge debt. Nearly every American carries 123 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 2: and it's their debt to Uncle Sam. So do you 124 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 2: have funds and qualified accounts? If so, then you are 125 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 2: not debt free. And here's why. When you look at 126 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 2: your IRA statement you see a balance of five hundred thousand, 127 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 2: and you start thinking of how you will manage and 128 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 2: spend that five hundred thousand, But you will forget that 129 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 2: account is not worth five hundred thousand simply because every 130 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 2: IRA and four to one K includes a debt to 131 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 2: Uncle Sam, and you begin paying back that debt the 132 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 2: day you start with drawing funds and they have to 133 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,799 Speaker 2: pay taxes on them. And Chris, from a tax standpoint, 134 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 2: you and I see this every day when you do 135 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 2: a mock tax R and then you start adding into 136 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 2: R and D, it kind of blows these people away. 137 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 5: Well that's just said. 138 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 4: I mean people are just not aware of what is 139 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 4: really going to come in the front door when they 140 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 4: need their income from those accounts. 141 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 5: I mean, think about it. 142 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 4: You know, you retire, you take social Security, maybe you 143 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 4: have a pension, but then you have to fill this 144 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,119 Speaker 4: income gap. So where do you take your money from? 145 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 4: And most people to say, oh, let's take it from 146 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 4: my four one K, or I'll take it from this IRA, 147 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 4: or I'll take it from my husband's IRA. Well then 148 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 4: again you have to take more out just to net 149 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 4: the amount you need. So what are you doing about it? 150 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 4: That's why we talk about creating an income plan for yourself. 151 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 4: What's an income plan. It's not just taking money out 152 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 4: of those accounts and draining them. Why not put together 153 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 4: buckets of money where you have guaranteed income where you'll 154 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 4: never outlive it. 155 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 5: I don't care how long you live. 156 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 4: It'll always pay you, like your own family pension plan. 157 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 4: And you can have other buckets out there that you 158 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 4: can grow and keep growing on a tax deferred basis. 159 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 4: But you don't need to if you can get some 160 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 4: of this money out and pay the taxes now so 161 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 4: you have tax free money in the future. So put 162 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 4: together a plan we can help eight three to three 163 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 4: Maggie tax. 164 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 3: And one thing we always talk about. 165 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 2: The Trump tax cuts are going to expire in two years, 166 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 2: and the question is what are you doing about it? 167 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 2: So talking today about this, you need to be thinking 168 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 2: about it today and stop planning on it. When the 169 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,559 Speaker 2: Trump tax cuts expire. We don't know what the tax 170 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 2: bill is going to be. So taxes are your biggest 171 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 2: debt to Uncle Sam. And you have to remember that 172 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 2: you owe money. Everyone out there does. In truth, you 173 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 2: pay back the debt with interest. After all, you decided 174 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 2: to defer taxes on your IRA contribution, which was a 175 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 2: good thing, but you're paying taxes on the contributions and 176 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 2: your account growth. So think about it. Grow, grow, grow, 177 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 2: that's the message, right, Chris, grow, grow grow. But at 178 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 2: the end of that, guess what you have. You've got 179 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 2: a big oak tree with a lot of branches and 180 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 2: those are going to be taxes you're going to pay. 181 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 5: And that's just it. 182 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 4: So that's why we have and we say each and 183 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 4: every day those accounts that are infected with taxes. So 184 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 4: who wants to be infected with something not good things 185 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 4: if it comes to your health or even taxes?

That's what it's 197 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 4: not about. It's about the end of the story.

Do you have an investment plan? 326 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 4: Do you have an estate plan? Do you have a 327 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 4: Social Security maximization plan? What about a Medicare plan. These 328 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 4: are questions that many retirees are answering in each and 329 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 4: every day, and they just don't get the answer because 330 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 4: they don't know where to go. Well, it's very simple 331 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 4: eight three to three Maggie Tax. 332 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 3: So think about it. 333 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 2: Without these techniques that we're offering, you are at the 334 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 2: mercy of circumstances beyond your control. 335 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 3: What do I mean by that called legislative risk. 336 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 2: Legislative risk means the Congress can change the rules anytime 337 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 2: it's written in pencil, and every year we see this. 338 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 2: So things are changing right now. So like it or not, 339 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: taxes are likely to rise, and now is the time 340 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 2: to reposition your assets now to avoid higher taxes in 341 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 2: the future.

I just want to touch on 438 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 2: it because when everyone comes into our office, we ask 439 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 2: him why are you here? Okay, and they tell us 440 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 2: because maybe your taxes or we're not sure about our advisor. 441 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 2: But Chris, you mentioned one thing before. You asked the gentleman, 442 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 2: is safety important to you? Just elaborate on that question 443 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 2: with this client, because it took you in a total 444 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 2: different direction, and even. 445 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 3: Took him in a direction. 446 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 5: That's exactly right. 447 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 4: You know a client that came in last week and 448 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 4: he's got over two million bucks and the number is 449 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 4: not important to us. But the fact of the matter 450 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 4: is is when we ask him that question, it does 451 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 4: make sense because we asked them, is safety of your 452 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 4: money important to you? And guess what he said? He 453 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,719 Speaker 4: said absolutely at this age it is. So he had 454 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 4: all his papers all over my desk and I'm looking 455 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 4: at them, and he had a variable annuity here, a 456 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 4: mutual fund here, a four one k here, he had 457 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 4: a stock portfolio there, And I looked at everything and 458 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 4: I said it again, as safety of your money important 459 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 4: to you, and he said absolutely. And I said, well 460 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 4: you're all you're a risk. All your money is in 461 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 4: risk and he said, I know, but I don't know 462 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 4: how or what to do with it. He said, I 463 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 4: just been trained for years to put money away, and 464 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 4: I just did what everyone else was doing, and I 465 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 4: put the money in a form on K and I 466 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 4: got an advisor who just deals with stocks and I 467 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 4: and I put money with this insurance guy and he 468 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 4: deals with variable annuities. And that's that's what I did. 469 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 4: So it was more like a He just told us 470 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 4: a story. It was great, but he said, that's why 471 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 4: I'm here. I want a plan. I want to create 472 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 4: something because I know I can't keep doing what I'm doing. 473 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 4: If if the market goes down and the volatility is 474 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,199 Speaker 4: the way it is, I will not have what I 475 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 4: have on this on this desktop. 476 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,120 Speaker 3: Stop you gotta stop you. My heart is bubbling right here. 477 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 2: The thing that what Chris just said, and this is 478 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 2: for many of you, and you'll understand, you are going 479 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 2: by the old rules of retirement. They're old, they don't work. 480 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 2: So we want to teach you the new rules of retirement. 481 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 2: We have a book that we wrote, New Rules of Retirement. 482 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 2: I can send it to all of you in an 483 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 2: email if you want. I'll be glad to let you 484 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 2: read it. Because as Chris and I go through the 485 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 2: show and through the TV show, we talk about bucket planning, 486 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 2: and most of the people that we talked to and 487 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 2: Chrys will agree, they don't know what bucket planning is. 488 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 3: It's a pile of money. 489 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 2: It's putting your money in variables, it's putting your money 490 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 2: in mutual funds and stocks. Where's the plan, Where's the 491 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 2: income plan, where's the tax plan, Where's the investment plan? 492 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 2: And like Chris said, it's an old advisor who just 493 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 2: gives you the same thing. Because we're taught to stay 494 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 2: in the same line with everybody. Chris mentions about being 495 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 2: with the herd. You don't have to you can get 496 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 2: off the exit and go in a different direction, and folks, 497 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 2: I don't know.

But you know, the education is 514 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 4: so important that we can deliver to you so you 515 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 4: can make a sound decision. So you now can know 516 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 4: about what you have. You can know it and you 517 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 4: can feel confident and that's what builds clarity and confidence 518 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 4: moving forward in retirement, and that's why you could be 519 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 4: happy during retirement. You don't have to worry about these 520 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 4: ups and downs and the volatilities. So you know, where 521 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 4: is it printed that you have to lose twenty thirty 522 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 4: forty percent in the market. Where is it written that 523 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 4: that's what you have to do? And the truth is 524 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 4: it's not written anywhere. You don't have to be there 525 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 4: if you don't want to. You know, let's discuss what 526 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 4: this means, because there are poor choices out there, many 527 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,199 Speaker 4: of you contribute to form one case or I areas 528 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 4: without determining if you're receiving a worthwhile upfront tax deduction. 529 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 4: You know a lot of people talk about by term 530 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 4: and invested difference. But when you do that, do you 531 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 4: really understand what they're saying? Do you understand what that means? 532 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,439 Speaker 4: You know, many people out there are on the radio, 533 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 4: many people out there are on TV. But guess what 534 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 4: are they really delivering the right message? Are they just 535 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 4: selling a product here on TV all time, by gold 536 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 4: in your IRA, by gold in your Is that what 537 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 4: you need to do? That's a transactional advisor, Chris, it's 538 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 4: not a plan. It's not a plan. 539 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 5: You know. 540 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 2: And again the language that we talk about and trying 541 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 2: to teach everyone on the radio show in TV for years. 542 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 2: We know this because we see this every day. And 543 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 2: here's another one, use tax deferral to reduce income taxes. 544 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 2: Now you know life insurances allows the investment. And all 545 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 2: of these are ridiculously inaccurate statements because what Chris mentioned before, 546 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 2: you have a transactional advisor that's going to sell you 547 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 2: a stock bond and mutual fund doesn't talk about anything else. 548 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 2: You have an insurance guy that's just going to sell 549 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 2: you one product, doesn't talk about anything else. 550 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 3: And then you have a. 551 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 2: Fiduciary like Maggie Investments who are talking about income planning, 552 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 2: tax planning, investment planning, and how it pertains to you 553 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 2: to your situation because the government tells you thousands and 554 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 2: thousands of times that they are true, and you begin 555 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,640 Speaker 2: to believe them. You know, tax deferral, Well, you all 556 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 2: know that in two years the tax cuts are going 557 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 2: to expire and it's going to go up at least 558 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 2: three percent. On my website, I have is a spot 559 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,399 Speaker 2: there for retirement calculator. Now they're extending the R and D. 560 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 2: Chris was seventy two. Excuse me, it was seventy and 561 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 2: a half. And then they bumped at the seventy two 562 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,120 Speaker 2: and a lot of people didn't know that. And now 563 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:24,679 Speaker 2: you just found out that they're going to bump at 564 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,160 Speaker 2: seventy three. So here's what they're doing. If you understand 565 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 2: what we're trying to talk about the language, they're pushing 566 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 2: it out so you don't have to take the required 567 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 2: minimum distribution and get a higher tax. What they're telling 568 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 2: you is do some planning, do some planning, and get 569 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 2: that money out now at a low tax bracket, which 570 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 2: we can explain to you from a tax standpoint, and 571 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 2: then later on have what Chris, tax free money. 572 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 4: As you said, over the past year, we've had more 573 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 4: clients I've ever had before want to talk about or 574 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 4: entertain roth conversions and very adamant about doing it. And 575 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 4: we have clients that come in just want to rip 576 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 4: off the band aid and just convert money from iras 577 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 4: which is infected with taxes, to tax free money. They 578 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 4: want to know how to go about doing that. Some 579 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 4: want to do it strategically. That's why we put together 580 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 4: a plan. So when we look at this whole thing, 581 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 4: it's about you. It's about your plan. What's your plan, 582 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 4: not your neighbors, not your brothers or your sisters down 583 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 4: the street. It's your plan. Every situation a little different. 584 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 4: Are you looking for income, Well, we can give you 585 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 4: income the most tax efficient way.

And again we talked about it before. 705 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 2: The most successful appointments that we have are with clients 706 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 2: who listen, and by the way, we listen, who understand 707 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 2: the language and have good questions, Chris, because you mentioned 708 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 2: it before, what about someone? 709 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 3: And we always get this when we do a show. 710 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 2: We get a call on Monday, we get a call today, 711 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 2: my parents passed away and they have money. I don't 712 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 2: know how to get it. They're confused and they have 713 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 2: no direction at all. And it's because they don't understand 714 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 2: the language. And we do not push you to a solution. 715 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 2: We lead you in the direction that you want to go. 716 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 2: That is very important because when you become a transactional 717 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 2: advisor is selling. When you become a complete advisor, you're 718 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 2: asking questions and you are asking questions why because it's 719 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 2: your money and it's simple, it's your life. 720 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 4: And that's what we do, and our goal is to 721 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 4: help you discover the gaps and your plan without accusing 722 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,719 Speaker 4: you of making bad decisions. What's done is done, and 723 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 4: that's okay, But now what do you do moving forward? 724 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 4: In a framework that's been effected across the board is 725 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 4: complete versus incomplete language and we do complete planning. And 726 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 4: it's okay right now if you have an incomplete plan, 727 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 4: we can complete it because we'll show you how to 728 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 4: have an income plan, a tax plan, and investment plan, 729 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 4: and also in a state plan. And I really can't 730 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,239 Speaker 4: say that you're doing anything wrong with your finances, but 731 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 4: based on what you have told me, it's important that 732 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 4: you move on going forward. That there are some areas 733 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 4: that we could make complete, because right now it's incomplete, 734 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 4: so it's entirely different processes. When you come to meet 735 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 4: with us, we plan out your future. We can show you, 736 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 4: based on your goals and the risk, what you want 737 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 4: to complete, and we can make that happen. We had 738 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 4: a girl that came in last week. She said, just 739 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 4: lay it out for me, tell me what exactly I 740 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 4: need to do so I could retire in five years 741 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 4: from now, where I don't have to worry about outliving 742 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 4: my money, where I don't have to worry about paying 743 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 4: more in taxes, where I don't have to worry about 744 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 4: if anything passes, if I pass away, that my kids 745 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 4: are not going to go through the probate proceecs. I 746 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 4: don't want to have to worry about that, so can 747 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 4: you help me? And that's what she asked me to do, 748 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 4: and we did. We put together a plan for her, 749 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 4: and by the time it was done, she said, oh 750 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 4: my gosh, now I have a plan, I have clarity, 751 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 4: I have confidence, and she's willing to move forward for 752 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 4: the next five years of working and after that she's done. 753 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 4: She has everything in place. So and that was just 754 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 4: a relief for her. And that's why it could be 755 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 4: a relief for you. If you pick up the phone, 756 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 4: schedule time to meet with us. Because there's things on 757 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 4: your mind. Let's address those. If you have an incomplete plan, 758 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 4: let's make it a complete plan. Eight three three Maggie Tax, Yeah, 759 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 4: don't be embarrassed. You know, if we tell you have 760 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 4: an incomplete plan, nothing's wrong with that. We just got 761 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 4: to fix it. 762 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 2: So once you see what a complete plan is compared 763 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 2: to your incomplete plan, Chris and I are confident that 764 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 2: you're going to understand and start to make some changes. 765 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,479 Speaker 2: And many of you listening today that are our clients 766 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 2: that have met with us, understand what we're talking about 767 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 2: because we walk you through it. And I'm confident that 768 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,280 Speaker 2: you're going to understand and start to make some changes 769 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 2: because you want to make changes that are good. You 770 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 2: don't want to make changes just because someone tells you 771 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 2: to do it and it turns out to be bad. 772 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 2: We don't want that. So give us a call eight 773 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 2: three to three Maggie Tax. And when you call again, 774 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 2: we've been saying this throughout today's show. Make sure you 775 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 2: say it's urgent. It's urgent no matter what you want 776 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 2: us to do. Tax is, income planning, tax planning, anything, 777 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:39,799 Speaker 2: just say it's urgent, pick up the phone, come in 778 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 2: and meet with us. 779 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,240 Speaker 3: Eight three to three Maggie Tax. 780 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 4: So that's why it's so important to get together with us, 781 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 4: because you know, hey, it's your money, right, it's not ours, 782 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:49,360 Speaker 4: but we can help you and we can lead you 783 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,359 Speaker 4: in the right direction. So a three to three Magie Tax. 784 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 4: So we have a question, you know, for everyone. You know, 785 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 4: when a witness is understand in a court of law, 786 00:34:56,560 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 4: the lawyer speaking to him does not have to have 787 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 4: the liberty of making statements. They almost exclusively just ask 788 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 4: questions about the facts of the case. Right, So in 789 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 4: the same way what we do here, we always ask 790 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,319 Speaker 4: you questions and the more information we get from you. 791 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 4: That answer is so important to create a complete plan. 792 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 4: So let me ask you a couple of questions, like, 793 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 4: how do you feel about higher taxes? How do you 794 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 4: how does that make you feel? 795 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: You know? 796 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 4: Does inflation affect you? Are you paying more and earning less? 797 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 3: You know? 798 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 4: How does that make you feel when that happens? What 799 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 4: are you doing about it to make it better? You know? 800 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 4: Do you think that it was possible before we met 801 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 4: that you had these questions answered? And many people think 802 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 4: they do, but they really don't. Because when we look 803 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 4: at your taxes, guess what, you might be paying more 804 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 4: tax than you really need to. You could be getting 805 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 4: more income and pay less tax. Is that what you 806 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 4: would want? Well, we can help you. Let's have a 807 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 4: discussion and get deeper understanding and move the conversation in 808 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 4: the right direction to help you and to guide you 809 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 4: and to make sure that you have the clarity and 810 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 4: commence that you need in retirement. 811 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,320 Speaker 2: The more we understand you, the more we can develop 812 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 2: a complete plan. 813 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 3: So two things are true. 814 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,800 Speaker 2: As a financial professional, I want to help you achieve 815 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 2: your financial goals and create a complete plan. Again, Chris 816 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 2: mentioned as a fiduciary, Wane to do the best thing 817 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,400 Speaker 2: for you. So sometimes I need to ask you to 818 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 2: take action. And here's what happens. When people come in, 819 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,880 Speaker 2: are you shopping or do you want to buy? And 820 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 2: when it gets to the end of the presentation or 821 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 2: the question, we ask you, what do we do from here? 822 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 2: And it's a question that you have to tell us 823 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,240 Speaker 2: what to do at that point. And that's certainly nothing 824 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 2: to apologize for. It's the right approach and it makes 825 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 2: all the difference in the world. And so many times, Chris, 826 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 2: we've heard people say because she said, because he said, no, 827 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,279 Speaker 2: this is your money. So let's put this another way, 828 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 2: action versus inaction.
