It's income planning, tax planning, investment planning, 37 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 3: a state planning, social security maximization planning, and real quick 38 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 3: before we get going in today's show, at a client 39 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 3: that came in last week. They were paying unnecessary taxes. 40 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 3: They paid three thousand dollars a year in federal taxes 41 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 3: that they did not have to pay. Why because the 42 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 3: advisor that they're working with does not do complete planning. 43 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 3: They showed the current client how to take money out 44 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 3: of their IRA, a wrong distribution and it caused them 45 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 3: three thousand dollars in taxes for the past three years. 46 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 3: If they would have done proper sold security maximization planning 47 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 3: and investment planning, guess what, they would have avoided the 48 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 3: three thousand dollars a year federal tax for the past 49 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 3: three years. We got to save them nine thousand dollars 50 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 3: in taxes. So when they came in and met with us, 51 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 3: we did the sold Security Maximization report. We showed them 52 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 3: how to take solid security and guess what now they 53 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 3: get the same income on a most tax efficient way. 54 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 3: That is complete planning and that's what people need out there. 55 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 3: So pick up the phone, schedule time to meet with us, 56 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 3: eate three to three Maggi Tax.

So when he came in and 65 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 2: we showed him what Chris just mentioned, he was blown 66 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 2: away because he said, this is ridiculous. You know, I'm 67 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 2: not getting the proper training or the proper information from 68 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 2: my advisor.

You don't get at the workplace, 124 00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 3: you don't get at home. You know, you don't go 125 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 3: out with your friends to get this information. You need 126 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 3: this information, So pick up the phone, schedule time to 127 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 3: come to visit us at a three to three Magi 128 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 3: tacks or visit Maggi tax dot com. 129 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 2: And one thing we always say, simple and easy to understand. 130 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 2: And you know, we encourage open and honest communication. So 131 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 2: when you come in, if we meet with you, there's 132 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 2: a question and answer time that we want to give 133 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 2: you so we can answer your questions and you can 134 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: answer ours honestly, because if you don't tell the truth, 135 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 2: then it's going to disrupt the plan. The most important 136 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 2: part about discussing financial plans with your partner is for 137 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 2: both sides to be completely honest and transparent about personal 138 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 2: financial goals and concerns. And Chris, many times when we 139 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 2: see people they say, well, you know, I want risk 140 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 2: and my husband want I want safety. My husband wants risk. 141 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 2: That's a tough road to cross because we got to 142 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 2: get in the middle. But the way I look at it, 143 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 2: you've seen this, they just don't understand what they're saying. 144 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: That's it. 145 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 3: But the main concern that we see amongst a lot 146 00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 3: of people is the common theme is they need income. 147 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 3: They want income. They don't want to run out of money. 148 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 3: They need income sources. So it doesn't matter if you 149 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 3: have two hundred thousand or or fifty million, it doesn't matter. 150 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 3: The fact of the matter is most people out there 151 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 3: they want the same thing. They don't want to run 152 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 3: out of money. So that's why it's important to meet 153 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 3: with us because let's put together those types of plans 154 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 3: for you. 155 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 2: So any thoughts that. 156 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 3: You might have are withheld could come back to serve 157 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 3: as a point of contention later on. So that's why 158 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 3: we talk about clarity and openness. It's best to get 159 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 3: everything out on the open while you both have high 160 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 3: hopes for a brighter future. So take a moment to 161 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 3: evaluate your current financial situation and we can help you 162 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 3: make it easy to understand. So after discussing your main goals, 163 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 3: you need to compare them to your current financial situation. 164 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 3: And when you come in to meet with us, you 165 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 3: can't get a second opinion from your current advisor. So 166 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 3: that's why it's so important to meet with us. We 167 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 3: will give you that second opinion. So when you meet 168 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 3: with us, we will compare your current plan and show 169 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 3: you options to improve what you have, and then you 170 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 3: can make a decision on what you want to do. 171 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 3: If it's better, then make it. If it's not, then 172 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 3: you don't have to. But the end of the day, 173 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 3: you need to embrace what you have and also have 174 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 3: the goals be accomplished at some point so you can 175 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 3: move on with clarity and confidence in your retirement. 176 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 2: Well, one thing you mentioned before, We had a client 177 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 2: that basically said they were intimidated by their advisor. And 178 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 2: my question is what we asked her? How long of 179 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 2: you had the advisor? Well, we've had him twenty years 180 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 2: and I just can't break the relationship. Guys, Well, the 181 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,679 Speaker 2: question is, look what he's done for you. He hasn't 182 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 2: done anything for you. So when we did the comparison, 183 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 2: Chris is talking about our plan was more, was better 184 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,199 Speaker 2: than their plan? And she said it, she said, guys, 185 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: this is the plan that I want. What do I do? 186 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: But she was afraid to be talking to her advisor 187 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 2: and many of you are because she was intimidated. That's ridiculous. 188 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 3: Career, you don't have to be, you know, in the 189 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 3: new plan. She had an income plan. She had a 190 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 3: tax plan. She was getting income on the most tax 191 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,319 Speaker 3: efficient way. Now, she had an investment plan. When she 192 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 3: had bucket planning, she knew where all her investments were 193 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 3: and what they're doing and the risk she was taking 194 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 3: with it. She had an inflation bucket plan to that 195 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 3: she sprinkled on her plan to go ahead and have 196 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 3: the adjustments for inflation in the future. This is what 197 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 3: we're talking about. And to make it all come to fruition. 198 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 3: She had an estate plan. So God forbid, something happens 199 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 3: to her. Guess what, It stays in her family that 200 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 3: she didn't even have for twenty years. So her advisor 201 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 3: wasn't doing the good job for her. But guess what 202 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 3: she didn't. She thought that was the case for so 203 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 3: many years, but it wasn't because the advisor did not 204 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,719 Speaker 3: do complete planning. So pick up the phone, schedule time 205 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 3: to meet with us. Let's get together. Let's talk about 206 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 3: your situation and see if we can help you. 207 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 2: And one other thing, we talk about estate planning without 208 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 2: a will, probate court and the estate decide what happens 209 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 2: to your assets after you're gone. What Chris just mentioned, 210 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 2: many of you that we meet with. Do not have 211 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 2: a state planning folks, It's very simple. It's very simple. 212 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 2: It costs you less today than more later on, and 213 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 2: that's what a lot of people want to avoid probate. 214 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 2: What about your tax bill and retirement? Is it too big? 215 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 2: Do you even know what it is?

So my guess is many 269 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 2: of you do not know this information, and it's because 270 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 2: you're not asking your advisor why. Because it's the language 271 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 2: we talk about the language and many of you do 272 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 2: not understand, so we can help. We call it the 273 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 2: Maggie Plan, simple and easy to understand. And for many 274 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 2: of you that have met with us, you understand what 275 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 2: I'm saying because we made it simple and understand. Chris 276 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 2: talked about some clients that came in before we talk 277 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 2: about this every week. They came in and they were shocked, Wow, 278 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 2: I really could do that. So many people in our 279 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 2: country believe that the government's going to take care of them. Look, 280 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 2: in fact, isn't it the majority of people many of 281 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 2: you listening, Sure it is. So how do we get 282 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 2: you to understand that it has now become mathematically impossible 283 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 2: that the government's going to take care of you? Christen, 284 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 2: what's happening is they're doing the opposite. They're making it 285 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 2: worse for us. Well, that's just saying, and you can't 286 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 2: control that. 287 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 3: Right where in Ayoyo economy, you're on your own and 288 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 3: many people work hard, you know, they go to have 289 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 3: a job, they put money away, they don't know what 290 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 3: to do with it. That's where we come in. You know, 291 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 3: how do you structure all this where you can have 292 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 3: income in the most tax efficient way. How do you 293 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 3: structure this where you can have a tax plan where 294 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 3: you pay the least amount of taxes possible, but do 295 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 3: it legally. How do you put together an investment plan 296 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 3: where you have different buckets doing different things to combat inflation? 297 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 3: How do you make sure that everything you put together 298 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,679 Speaker 3: stays in your family and doesn't have to go through 299 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 3: the probate process or has to go through taxes or 300 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 3: just heartache with other beneficiaries. It doesn't have to happen. 301 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 3: It's called succession planning. And how do you put this together? 302 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 3: So that's what we're discussing here, And if you have questions, 303 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 3: now's the time to stop for a minute, take a 304 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 3: deep breath, you know, pick up the phone and schedule 305 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 3: a time to meet with us. You know, a goal 306 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 3: without a plan is really not going to be achievable. 307 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 3: So what do you do. You have to have to 308 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 3: schedule time to meet with us. You have to come 309 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 3: in and let's let's have a conversation why. Because you 310 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 3: deserve it, you put away money. Now is the time 311 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 3: to put together a plan. 312 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 2: You just brought something up that just hit me. You 313 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 2: call it succession planning. Many people call it enhanced planning 314 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 2: or estate planning. But talk about succession planning for a minute, 315 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 2: because it applies to everything that we're talking about, Chris, 316 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 2: about income planning, about tax planning, about four oh one 317 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 2: K rollovers. It's about succession planning. How do you get 318 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 2: to the next level because people do not understand the language, 319 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 2: and if you do not take action, you're simply just 320 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 2: going to lose. And if you do take action, you 321 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 2: can win. It's that easy. And what I'm saying, it's 322 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 2: that easy. Once you learn the and you learn the rules, 323 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 2: you can make something happen. And we can help all 324 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: of you arrive at this important determination because you're probably 325 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 2: worrying too much. Why are we sharing this with you? 326 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 2: We do this every week, we do our TV show. 327 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 2: You know. I've been speaking in person, you know, and 328 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 2: on the radio and on TV for years, and I 329 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 2: have been stunned to discover how few people understand this 330 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 2: vital information because they don't take the time, Chris, to 331 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 2: stop for a second and let me put this. It's 332 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 2: an hour an hour and a half of your time 333 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 2: instead of going to the beach or going bowling or 334 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 2: going whatever, or drinking. Am I right around? 335 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 3: I mean because if you don't understand this information. It's 336 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 3: possible that you will not realize the damage that you're 337 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 3: doing to your financial and retirement success. 338 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 2: And that's pretty simple. 339 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 3: I mean, if you take the time to just carve 340 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 3: out a little bit of time to do what you 341 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 3: need to do to put yourself in good order, then 342 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 3: you can have fun from there. 343 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 2: You know. 344 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 3: We talked about a client of mine that we had 345 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 3: last last segment. We discussed how they had no idea 346 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 3: how to generate the income, and they came to us 347 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 3: and they said, I got this lum sum pension. What 348 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 3: do I do with it? How do I get income 349 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 3: in the most tax efficient way? Well, we created bucket planning. 350 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 3: They'll never outlive that money. Ever, they will have guaranteed 351 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 3: income coming in eight thousand dollars a month for the 352 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 3: rest of their life, you know what. And how settling 353 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 3: is that? How comforting is that? So when I say 354 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 3: the question is what are you doing about it? Or 355 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 3: if you don't understand this information that we're talking about, 356 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 3: is possible that you will not realize that the damage 357 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 3: that you're doing to your financial your future of financial 358 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:38,479 Speaker 3: and retirement success. 359 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 2: You know, And again, it doesn't matter if it's intentional 360 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 2: or unintentional. And one of the things that you know 361 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 2: what you brought up about education, about language, about teaching 362 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 2: our young folks and our kids how to save for 363 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 2: retirement because nobody's doing that. Why because they're not making 364 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 2: enough money to even save. But there is a way 365 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 2: to save a portion of your money if you understand 366 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 2: the way it works. And here's the worst part. Many 367 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 2: of you are unaware of the poor choice that you're 368 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 2: making because you are being informed in ways that are 369 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 2: beneficial to the sellers of these non beneficial products. You 370 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 2: don't understand what you have with mutual funds and stocks 371 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 2: and what the fees are and what the risk is. 372 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 2: And Chris talk about the comparison when we do that 373 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 2: with many clients because when we ask them, are you 374 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 2: married to that stock or do you know what you have? 375 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 2: The answer always is, uh, I don't know. Well, let's 376 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: just say it. How many people follow the crowd. 377 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 3: How many people just try to keep up with the 378 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 3: Joneses right their neighbors, and they just don't know what 379 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 3: they don't know, And that is the biggest thing. So 380 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 3: we have clients that come in and they say, just 381 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 3: like my dad mentioned, the well I don't have a 382 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 3: lot of money, but meanwhile they do. They have enough 383 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 3: money so they can retire. They have enough money where 384 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 3: you can create a guaranteed income plan and they stay 385 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 3: within their income and their budget, and they're great. They 386 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 3: can do that. They don't have to have millions of dollars. 387 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 3: You don't have to get to a certain number like 388 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 3: the TV tells us or these advertisements tell us to do. 389 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,719 Speaker 3: You don't have to. You don't know what you don't know. 390 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 3: And that's the thing, and that's why when you come 391 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 3: to meet with us, we'll tell you.

Tax Let's discuss 427 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: your situation, answer the questions you have, because I know 428 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 2: a lot of people are con so I want to 429 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 2: go back to a couple of things we talked about. 430 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 2: But here's an example of what we're trying to help 431 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 2: you with. And let's just say that you're sixty three 432 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 2: years old, you have a two hundred thousand dollars IRA, 433 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 2: and you may want to convert it. So let's also 434 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,120 Speaker 2: say that you have a twenty five percent tax liability 435 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 2: and your account grows at five percent per year. And 436 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 2: you can really put any numbers in here, but I 437 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 2: just want to use this for illustration. So here's the 438 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 2: total amount of taxes that you could potentially pay from 439 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 2: that two hundred thousand dollars from today through age ninety. 440 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 2: So if you keep the qualified account, the total taxes 441 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,679 Speaker 2: that you're going to pay on the RMDS is going 442 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 2: to be about seventy three thousand, nine hundred and forty 443 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 2: three dollars, and then you've got to pay tax on 444 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 2: the reinvested rmds, which a lot of people don't think 445 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,679 Speaker 2: about about thirty thousand, and the tax is paid on 446 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 2: the remaining account when you pass away of forty seven 447 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 2: thousand dollars. So the total taxes paid is one hundred 448 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 2: and fifty two thousand on that two hundred thousand dollars IRA. 449 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 2: Why are we breaking this down because this is what 450 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 2: you don't see when you start taking money out of 451 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 2: your RA. Now, if you converted that irate to a 452 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: tax re option, you would pay taxes on the conversion 453 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 2: of fifty thousand, and that's it. You don't pay any 454 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 2: more taxes. Is that shocking because a lot of people 455 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 2: see Chris and they go, wow, how can that be? 456 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 2: Because you're taking off one thing? You say, you're ripping 457 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 2: off the band aid? That's it. 458 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 3: So can you rip off the band aid? Should you 459 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 3: rip off the band Aid? The answer is yes and 460 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 3: depends on your situation. 461 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 2: Right. So that's why it's so important to meet with us. 462 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 3: Because what this client did was they went ahead and 463 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 3: said I don't want to be in an area or 464 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 3: an environment that's infected with taxes. I want to be 465 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 3: in an environment that's totally income tax free, where he 466 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 3: can breed the clean, fresh air of tax free income. 467 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 3: And that's what he was looking for. So what are 468 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 3: you looking for? That's the question that we are going 469 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 3: to ask you. So when you come to meet with us, 470 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 3: we're going to ask these questions. We're going to show 471 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,919 Speaker 3: you what the tax liability is going to be, and 472 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 3: we can do some strategies. We could do a lump sum, 473 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,919 Speaker 3: we could do a strategic rollout, we can do it 474 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 3: over time. Whatever we got to do to see if 475 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 3: we can help you benefit you. And so you now 476 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 3: you have tax free money. That's what it's about. So 477 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 3: when taxes increase, guess what. If you have tax free money, 478 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 3: you don't have to worry about it. So why not 479 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 3: put yourself there if you can, and we can show 480 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 3: you how. Eight three to three, Magi Tax.

That's just the 491 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,439 Speaker 2: way it is. I mean, there's nothing we can tell 492 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 2: you that's going to be different. It's real. So when 493 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 2: you run it from a tax standpoint, this is what 494 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 2: you folks need to see. And by the way, we 495 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 2: can run this tax analysis for all of you when 496 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,479 Speaker 2: you come in, and it's part of what we do 497 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 2: every day at Maggie Tax.

And that's confusing because they're not educated on this. 521 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 2: It's the language that they don't understand. Well that's just said. 522 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 3: I mean, everyone thinks they have to go through those risks. 523 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 3: You know, if the mark goes down, they think, well, 524 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 3: everyone's going to lose money.

And that's why 544 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 3: it's so important to get a review. Pick up the phone, 545 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 3: schedule time to meet with us. Let's get together. Let's 546 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 3: have a conversation. When you come in, we're going to 547 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 3: look at your tax return, we look at your investments, 548 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 3: and we look at your income plan. And if you 549 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 3: don't have an income plan, we'll show you how to 550 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 3: get one, We'll do it for you. Eight three to 551 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 3: three MAGI tax. 552 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 2: So tax risk is the risk that a person's taxes 553 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 2: they're going to be higher in retirement than what you 554 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 2: plan for. And this means more of a retires income 555 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 2: is going to be we'll go to the I R s. 556 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,639 Speaker 3: As taxes, which means less income to you. So you 557 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:38,719 Speaker 3: have to do something about this. 558 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,199 Speaker 2: And that's that's a great point there, and Chris, they 559 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 2: don't see this more to I RS and less to 560 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 2: you because if you a big question when we ask 561 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 2: everybody when they come in, how much income do you 562 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 2: need every month to come in the front door to 563 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 2: pay your bills, to live and do what you want 564 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 2: without worrying? And that's a you know, that's a question, Chris, 565 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 2: the people can't answer. They don't know the answer to 566 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 2: when it's confusing because that's the groundwork that you and 567 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 2: I start with, so we could see what's going to 568 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 2: happen when it comes. 569 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 3: To taxes exactly we're talking about net You know, we 570 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 3: can we can gross up the rest or if we 571 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 3: have strategies. We don't have the takeout taxes because we 572 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 3: don't have to pay them. So That's why it's so 573 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 3: important to make sure that you know how much you 574 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 3: need per month, especially approaching retirement. What is the amount 575 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 3: you need for the next thirty days to spend. I'm 576 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 3: not talking about put it going on a vacation or 577 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 3: I'm not talking about going on a cruise or to 578 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 3: go on a trip. Those things we can plan for. 579 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 3: I'm talking about day to day or month to month 580 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 3: activities that you need to cover to make sure that 581 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 3: you have income coming in. So these are things we 582 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 3: can help you with. It's called budget planning. Schedule time 583 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 3: to meet with us.

A lot of 586 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 2: people out there listening today don't even know about a budget, 587 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 2: don't have a budget. Well, folks, it's real important when 588 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 2: you sit down and look at what you're spending and 589 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 2: what you owe. You know what's coming in the front door, 590 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 2: how does that balance out. So from a standpoint that 591 00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 2: Chris and I do, we do a balance sheet on 592 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 2: every clock to see where your assets are, which ones 593 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 2: you're using for income, which one you're using for taxes, 594 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 2: because that's part of the plan. It's a tax planet. 595 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 2: It's an income planet, it's an investment plan, and it's 596 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 2: a legacy plan. So folks, if you're missing that, you know, 597 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 2: I encourage you to call right now eight three to 598 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 2: three Maggie Tax.

Because in short, 600 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 2: tax risk measures the level of taxation that you're going 601 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 2: to experience in retirement. Now, I know you're saying, well, 602 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 2: I'm not retiring yet, but that's okay because you want 603 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 2: to plan for it, So don't put that off until 604 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 2: the year before you retire. How many people Chris call 605 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 2: us and say can I retire? And we ask him 606 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,159 Speaker 2: when do you want to retire? And in many cases 607 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 2: they can retire but don't even know they can. 608 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 3: Well, let's just say it. So it's a great feeling 609 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 3: when you can tell someone yes, you could retire and 610 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 3: they look at you like, well, where am I going 611 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 3: to get the income from? And we can show them 612 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 3: because we can put together buckets of money where it 613 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 3: has income producing account growing for long term to combat 614 00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 3: the inflation as well, and all. The best thing is 615 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 3: that avoids probat and stage within the family, so you 616 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 3: can leverage your money. You can maximize your soil security benefits, 617 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 3: you can have spousal benefits.

And she said, I wish I would have 625 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 3: found you ten years ago because I would have been 626 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 3: even in better shape.

We 694 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 3: thank you so much for tuning in. Don't forget every 695 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 3: Sunday on ABC TV at ten thirty am for the 696 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 3: Magi Tax and Financial Show. It's our TV show on 697 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 3: Sunday ABC. There's so much information right there, you get 698 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 3: to meet us, you'll see us. We talk a lot 699 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 3: about education on many different topics, and that's what it's 700 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 3: all about. To educate you and make sure that you 701 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 3: are knowing what your options are during retirement. 702 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 2: So let's take this step by step because it's a 703 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 2: basic understanding of income taxes where it all starts. And 704 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 2: literally all of you have little or no understanding of 705 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 2: how income taxes work because you only do it once 706 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 2: a year. You basically put all your stuff together, bring 707 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 2: it to a tax REPAA, and then see what you 708 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 2: have to pay. And how do I know this because 709 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 2: think about this for a minute. Sixty one percent of 710 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 2: American pay no federal income tax, and yet they contribute 711 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 2: to tax deductible four to one k's iras, four or 712 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 2: three b's and four fifty seven plants. So here's what happens. 713 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 2: They get a deduction on the front side, and they 714 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 2: build a pile of money that could be taxed at 715 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 2: twenty thirty forty percent on the backside. Chris, is that 716 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 2: a good thing? Is Is that a good plan where 717 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 2: you're able to, you know, put money away. You get 718 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 2: a tax deduction, But then later on they bang you 719 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 2: with a big tax and they don't tell you. 720 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 3: Well, it's good on upfront, but there's the rest of 721 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 3: the story. 722 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 2: But here's the thing. Upfront might be good because you 723 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 2: get a tax deduction. But we're talking about retirement here. 724 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 2: We're talking about putting money away so that you can 725 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 2: have a great retirement. It used to be stop working 726 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 2: at sixty five, you get medicare, you get solid security, 727 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 2: and you're on your way. My dad did that, my 728 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 2: mom did that. That was the basic thing. Get your 729 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 2: pension because they worked for a company that gave him 730 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 2: a pension. Not many people have that. You talked about 731 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 2: that before design a pension plan, folks, that's what we're 732 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 2: talking about the language. So ask yourself, if you were 733 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 2: a farmer, would you like to pay tax on the 734 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 2: seed or the harvest? And that is not a good 735 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 2: understanding of tax law. And again that's why we have 736 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 2: the Maggie Plan. It's a tax plan, it's an income plan, 737 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 2: it's an insurance plan, it's an investment plan, and we 738 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 2: call it a complete plan. Ask yourself this question, do 739 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 2: you have a complete plan? I sit in front of 740 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 2: people every day, so does Chris, and we ask them 741 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 2: do you have a complete plan? And they go, well, 742 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 2: I don't know, I think so. So when we start 743 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 2: talking to them and pulling everything apart, guess what. They 744 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 2: don't have a complete plan. They have an incomplete plan. 745 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 2: So we call it the Maggie Plan, and get a 746 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 2: complete plan today, simple and easy to understand.
