So these are things 89 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 3: that are happening. So pick up the phone, schedule time 90 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 3: to meet with us. Eight three three, Maggie tax. 91 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 2: We'll stay with what you just said, your plan. The 92 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 2: question is what is your plan? Is it a tax plan? 93 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 2: Is it an income plan? Is it an investment plan? 94 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 2: Is it social security plan? Is it a state plan? 95 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 2: We do seminars every month on a state and taxes, 96 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 2: and you'd be surprised how many people come to our 97 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 2: seminars and they do not have a plan, Chris. And 98 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 2: it's disappointing because they're adults. Okay, they know this, and 99 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 2: yet they do nothing about it until it hits the fan, 100 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 2: and that's too late. So even now with this new bill, 101 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 2: a lot of things are going to change, so it's 102 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 2: really important to understand it. And a couple things that 103 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 2: they went over was the bill includes cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, 104 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 2: and the Affordable Care Act. I'm not going to go 105 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 2: into that right now, but there are answers that we 106 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 2: can give you. There's new Medicaid work requirements and stricter 107 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 2: eligibility checks. Again, it might apply to some of you, 108 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: but we'll go over that as well. There's clean energy 109 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 2: tax credits. They're being eliminated. Listen to this, despite campaign promises. 110 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 2: There's no repeal of Social Security taxes. Up to eighty 111 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 2: five percent of benefits may still be taxed for higher earners. 112 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: And thresholds haven't been adjusted since the nineteen eighties. And 113 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 2: this is the thing you and I see all the time. 114 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 2: The thresholds are the same, they've never changed. So now 115 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 2: what has to happen is people think, because of what 116 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 2: they were saying, no tax on Social Security, it only 117 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 2: goes a certain extent. And let me give you an example. 118 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 2: Social Security tax repeal. They're blocked by rules. And this 119 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: is important for you to understand. It's called the Bird rule. 120 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 2: The Bird rule prevents major changes to social security through reconciliation, 121 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 2: making a full repeal of Social Security taxes procedurally off 122 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 2: limits in this bill. Okay, but what they did give 123 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 2: you is a bonus deduction instead of repeal. So this 124 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 2: bill offers a six thousand dollars bonus standard deduction for 125 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 2: adults sixty five plus. Okay, phased out above seventy five 126 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 2: thousand for individuals and one hundred and fifty thousand for couples, 127 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 2: and it stacks on top of the regular senior deduction. 128 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 2: And Chris, the reason why that's important is because the 129 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 2: standard deduction now for seniors for single and couples has changed, 130 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 2: and now if they qualify for this to get another 131 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 2: six thousand, that basically helps them take more money out 132 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 2: of a retirement account, right and pay no tax and 133 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 2: do a conversion. 134 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 4: Well that's just it. 135 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 3: You sit a lot there, So let's kind of digress 136 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 3: here a little bit. A lot of people talked about 137 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 3: how there's going to be no tax on Social Security. 138 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 3: Well that's not going to happen. It's still going to 139 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 3: get taxed if you're over the limits. And that's why 140 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 3: it's so important to do tax planning, especially with your investments, 141 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 3: because if you're pulling money from your investments the wrong way, 142 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 3: then guess what your Social Security could be taxed up 143 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 3: to eighty five percent. So with this bill, there's still 144 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 3: going to be taxed on Social Security, but they're giving 145 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 3: that bonus deduction for you six thousand dollars if you qualify, 146 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 3: So it looks at your other income too, and if 147 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 3: you make over sev seventy five thousand dollars for individuals, 148 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 3: and if your married file and jointly, it's one hundred 149 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 3: and fifty thousand. So you have to make sure that 150 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 3: you're under these numbers. And that's why planning and tax 151 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 3: plan and investment planning is so important, and that's why 152 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 3: we can show you how to maneuver through these things. 153 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 3: But there's still going to be a deduction for you 154 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 3: on SOLI security and if you're married, then you get 155 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 3: the twelve thousand dollars, but if you're individual at six thousand, 156 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 3: you got to make sure that you're looking at those limits. 157 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 3: So what we're saying here is that planning is so crucial. 158 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 3: You know, my dad's been talking about the specifics of it, 159 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 3: but you need to understand that we can make this 160 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 3: simple for you.

A 174 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 2: lot of you hear our show and watch our TV show, 175 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 2: and there are a lot of strategies and concepts that 176 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 2: we can apply. But you have to sit down and 177 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 2: here's the word I'm going to use, get serious. If 178 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 2: you're serious, that's fine. But if you're just curious and 179 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 2: you're just looking, that's not a problem either, because you 180 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 2: have to be curious about what's going on, like we're 181 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 2: talking about today and throughout the show to understand how 182 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 2: serious you need to take this, because if you don't 183 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 2: take it serious, your tax situation is going to change. 184 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 2: Your income situation is going to change, your investment situation 185 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 2: is going to change, your estate planning is going to change. 186 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 2: And Chris, this is what people I don't know if 187 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 2: the word is panic, they come in and not only 188 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 2: with us, but any advisor. They're just so concerned about 189 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 2: being sold something but not really overlooking this whole plan 190 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 2: of what everything here. From a holistic approach applies. 191 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 3: That's exactly right, and many people just don't know what 192 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 3: they don't know. And you know, they get their taxes 193 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 3: done and they have a tax liability and they have 194 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 3: no idea, and then they're all upset because they don't 195 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 3: want to pay taxes. But in theory they could have 196 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 3: really just they're in a low tax bracket, but they 197 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 3: just didn't withhold enough. So there's a lot of things 198 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 3: that people just don't understand where we're getting to. And 199 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 3: we talk about distributions. That's why the investment side is 200 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 3: so important. People have investments that I'll call qualified accounts 201 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 3: like iras and formal case, then they have non qualified 202 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 3: accounts that in your checking account or your savings account, 203 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 3: or your non qualified brokerage account. So when we look 204 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 3: at where to take money from, we see this time 205 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 3: in and time out again all the time that people 206 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 3: take a distribution. You know, I need thirty thousand dollars, 207 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 3: and some people go to their IRA and then take it. Well, 208 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 3: they got to pay tax on it, so instead of 209 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 3: getting thirty thousand dollars, they have to gross that up 210 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 3: by maybe twenty percent, so that causes a taxable event, 211 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 3: whereas they can just take a certain amount from their 212 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 3: non qualified account or from their roth IRA and pay 213 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 3: no tax. So that's why it's so important to meet 214 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 3: with us because when we do investment planning, we can 215 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 3: put together an investment plan for you as a fiduciary. 216 00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 3: What we talk about is doing the right thing for 217 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 3: you and also bucket planning.

And if you 415 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 3: think it's just about brackets and deductions, well to start 416 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 3: thinking bigger.

This isn't the time to guest. And today 420 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 3: we're breaking down how smart investment planning intersects with the 421 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 3: latest tax changes and what you can do right now 422 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 3: to protect gains, minimize exposure, and stay strategic. 423 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 4: That's what we do. And so Dad, let's talk about here. 424 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 3: One of the things that we talk about is investment 425 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 3: planning and how it correlates to taxes. 426 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:55,919 Speaker 2: So what do you want to add, Well, let's talk 427 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: about one of the biggest thing. People ask about capital 428 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 2: gains and timing strategies. How does that apply? And we 429 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 2: get these questions all the time. What do we normally 430 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 2: explain to our clients, what strategies, what you know, concepts 431 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 2: we could use. 432 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 3: Well, we want to explore how changes the capital gains, 433 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 3: tax rates, or the threashows affect when and how investors 434 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 3: should realize these gains. Let's talk about what realizing gains means. 435 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 3: Because there's unrealized there's realize gains. Many people have no 436 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 3: idea what that means. But let's use this example. Say 437 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 3: you put one hundred thousand dollars in an investment and 438 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 3: maybe six months from now it's worth one hundred and 439 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 3: twenty thousand. Well, that one hundred thousand went up to 440 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty that's a twenty thousand dollars what 441 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 3: we call unrealized meaning it hasn't been sold, so it's 442 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 3: unrealized gain. So if you sell it, then you got 443 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 3: to pay tax on the twenty thousand dollars gain. Once 444 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,239 Speaker 3: you realize the gain is when you actually sold it, 445 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 3: so then you got to pay tax on that twenty thousand. 446 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 3: So the tax brackets changed. Sometimes it's zero percent tax 447 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 3: on these gains. Sometimes it's fifteen percent, sometimes it's ten percent, 448 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 3: sometimes as much as twenty percent on capital gains, depending 449 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 3: on your income. So why is tax planning and investment 450 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 3: planning so important to work together and have the right advisor. 451 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 2: Well, because when you get your taxes done and you 452 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 2: start to see what the bottom line is and you 453 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 2: pay a lot of tax, and the question we get, 454 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 2: I think I'm paying too much in taxes, and the 455 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 2: answer is no, you're not. You're not paying enough. And 456 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 2: there's a perfect example what you're talking about. If they 457 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 2: sold a stock or they had a large capital gain, 458 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 2: that applies, and it applies in income that they have 459 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 2: on their tax return, and it's either going to raise 460 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 2: their taxes, which I would bet ninety percent of people 461 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 2: and you and I know this, don't withhold enough taxes 462 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 2: when they do something like this, when they sell a 463 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 2: stock or a piece of property, they just get the 464 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:42,439 Speaker 2: money and they don't do nothing with it. 465 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:43,239 Speaker 4: That's exactly right. 466 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 3: So tax planning throughout the year, whether it's January, February, 467 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 3: March able, June, whatever, August, September, it doesn't matter. We're 468 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 3: always talking about tax planning as well as how it 469 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 3: it relates to your investment. So we can sit down 470 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 3: with you and show you that if you sold that 471 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 3: investment and you had a twenty thousand dollars gain, maybe 472 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 3: this you know tax to pay, Maybe you will be 473 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 3: encouraged to pay the fifteen percent tax. 474 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:04,199 Speaker 4: I don't know. 475 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 3: That's why everything that we look at is your complete plan. 476 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 3: We'll look at your taxes, your investments, your income. We'll 477 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 3: talk about all these different things and then give you the 478 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 3: advice so you can pull a trigger on what to 479 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 3: do is best for you, So pick up the phone, 480 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 3: schedule time to meet with us.

We get roth conversions and retirement accounts. 534 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 2: This is important now in talking today about the deductions, 535 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 2: your standard deduction and now the extra six thousand that 536 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 2: you can put. There's ways that you can reduce the 537 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 2: tax on your IRA in four oh one k. Again, Chris, 538 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 2: if they just use the strategy that we're. 539 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,120 Speaker 4: Talking about, that's exactly right. 540 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 3: So you know, the new bill impacts wroth conversion, timing, 541 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 3: contribution limits, and also requirement and distributions. You know what 542 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 3: our requirement in distributions. While we're on the topic, Dad, 543 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 3: let's talk about that. 544 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 2: Oh man, let me give you an example right now. 545 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 2: I had a gentleman call me the other day. He 546 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 2: had a million dollar IRA and he said, Bobby, you know, 547 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 2: I'm sixty five years old. When do I take this 548 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 2: thing called the R and D it's required minimum distribution. 549 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 2: The that he had and he didn't understand, is that 550 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 2: at seventy three, because of the new rules, he has 551 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 2: to take out the required amount based on a certain percentage. 552 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 2: When we ran the illustration that I'm encouraging all of 553 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 2: you to go to on our tax on our Maggie 554 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 2: Tax website, he was shocked that he had to take 555 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 2: out almost forty thousand out of one account and forty 556 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 2: thousand out of another. But the shocking part Chris was 557 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 2: that it went on his tax return, brought him to 558 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 2: a higher tax bracket and caused him a big tax, 559 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 2: and he didn't want to do it. So one of 560 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 2: the strategies we use a strategic rollouts where we had 561 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 2: seven years from sixty five to seventy three to roll 562 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,439 Speaker 2: his money out based on his tax situation and his 563 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,439 Speaker 2: tax bracket, to pay the least amount of tax and 564 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 2: have more tax free money. How good is that? 565 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 3: My gosh, that's called tax efficient planning with your investments, 566 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,199 Speaker 3: and that's what we do. So, you know, instead of 567 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 3: having a forty thousand dollars distribution that he didn't need 568 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 3: or want. It just raised his income. He didn't want 569 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 3: to pay the tax on it because now he's in 570 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 3: a higher tax bracket. It's still security getting tax eighty 571 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 3: five percent. And guess what he's saying, this is not 572 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 3: what I want to do. I wish I had the planning. 573 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 3: So that sixty five year old who was in a 574 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,959 Speaker 3: similar situation, we did some strategic planning. So now when 575 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 3: he got to seventy three, because that's the age that 576 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 3: you have to start taking what they call the requirement 577 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 3: in distribution, he didn't have to take out forty thousand. 578 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 3: Now we just create a tax free bucket for himself. 579 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 3: Now the RMD requirement in distribution was a lot less 580 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 3: and guess what Now his tax on Social Security was 581 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 3: zero and he had the income that he wanted in 582 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 3: the most tax deficient way. So where we're going with 583 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 3: this is pretty simple. I know a lot we're talking about, 584 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 3: but complete planning.

Where's the best spots to 588 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 3: take your money in the most tax efficient way. Investment planning. 589 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 3: We'll get into that in a little bit.

We have always 704 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 3: on both sides of the bay to help you. So 705 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 3: the first part of this whole thing is integration is 706 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 3: everything you know. A strong financial plan aligns with tax strategies, 707 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 3: investment opportunities, insurance, and estate planning into one cohesive system, 708 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 3: not silated decisions. And when we do this, we see 709 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 3: because we've been in the business, we've been in this 710 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 3: business so long that we see that many people come 711 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 3: in and they have a retail advisor. What's a retail advisor? 712 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 3: Retail advisor someone who just sells a product. Maybe they 713 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 3: sell them an investment. Maybe they just do the tax preparation. 714 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 3: They don't do any planning, they don't do any tax 715 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 3: strategies to harvest, they don't do any estate planning. So 716 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 3: what we're talking about here is when you work with 717 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 3: an advisor and you deserve this. That's where the big 718 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 3: boys are. They have complete planning. When you think about athletes, 719 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 3: they have many people working for them, they just don't 720 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 3: have They don't sign these deals, these record breaking contracts 721 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 3: and have one advisor just selling them a product. They 722 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 3: have a team, and that's where we are at Maggi 723 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 3: Tax Advisor and Financial Group. We have the components to 724 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 3: help you put together your plan, a three to three 725 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:17,479 Speaker 3: mag atax. 726 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 2: And one of the things that's important is most plans 727 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 2: that we see miss the mark because it's not prepared correctly. 728 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 2: Common gaps include outdated assumptions they were maybe a year ago, 729 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 2: two year ago, not like today. Lack of coordination between advisors. 730 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 2: Does your advisor talk to your tax person? Does your 731 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 2: tax person talk to your advisor? Not really? And failure 732 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 2: to stress test for real life scenarios. What's the situation 733 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 2: today as opposed when you did that a year ago. 734 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 2: So your plan should be proactive, not reactive, and the 735 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 2: best plans anticipate change because that's what it is. Change 736 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:54,479 Speaker 2: is happening everywhere every day on everything from market shifts 737 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 2: to life transitions and adjust with precision, not panic. And Chris, 738 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 2: I think what happens is a lot of people they panic, 739 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 2: they don't know, and they do until they come in. 740 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 2: And we've seen it many times. The person the couple 741 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 2: will sit here and go like, wow, my guide does 742 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 2: and tell me about that, and you know what the 743 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 2: problem is you as well, you should be asking, don't 744 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 2: be afraid, And that's the way it works. 745 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 4: Well, that's the thing. 746 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:18,320 Speaker 3: I mean, many people they seek help, right, they're looking 747 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 3: for the right advisors. You're listening to today's show. You're thinking, well, 748 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 3: should I go see them or should I just stay 749 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 3: with my advisor? Well, think about it. If you're looking 750 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 3: for a complete plan, then come see us. Let's have 751 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,839 Speaker 3: a conversation. We're adults, right, I mean, if things are 752 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 3: in line and you like the processes that we have 753 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 3: to help you, then we can implement the plan. You know, 754 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 3: if you meet with us and you don't like what 755 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 3: we do, or you like what your advisor does, then 756 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 3: you can stay with them. But you owe it to 757 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 3: yourself to do the right thing for yourself and your family. 758 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 3: Because we talk about we talk about the changes and 759 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,280 Speaker 3: tax laws that and the bills and the things are changing. 760 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 3: We just heard that throughout today's show. And if you're 761 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,840 Speaker 3: not doing anything about it, you're missing the opportunity for 762 00:34:58,880 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 3: yourself and your family. 763 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 2: And one thing I'll say, and I said it before, 764 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 2: if you're curious, then you should be. This is what 765 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 2: this show is supposed to do. Make you curious about it, 766 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 2: and then let's get serious because that's the blueprint, not 767 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,800 Speaker 2: just theory, but a framework you can act on because 768 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 2: a complete financial plan isn't built in a day. And 769 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 2: let me give you an example. If someone and you 770 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 2: meet with an advisor and they want to move everything 771 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 2: that you have, whoa slow it down, do a little 772 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 2: piece of a time and build it the way you 773 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,359 Speaker 2: want it. Not just jump in and see how deep 774 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 2: it is. Let's see how this thing progresses. But it 775 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,439 Speaker 2: starts with one decision, Chris. One decision to see where 776 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 2: the groundwork starts and then build it from there. 777 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 3: And that decision is very very simple. I mean, if 778 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 3: you listen today's show, pick up the phone, schedule a 779 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,840 Speaker 3: time to meet with this. You know, we're a family business. 780 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 3: We've helped a lot of people, but we make things 781 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,719 Speaker 3: simple for you to understand and decision that you need 782 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 3: to make is if I want to come in and 783 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 3: meet with you and let's do it. You know, again, 784 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 3: we're adults. Let's have a conversation and we're not going 785 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 3: to sell you anything. That's what we're looking for. We're 786 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 3: looking to help you. We're looking to put together a 787 00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 3: pleatropilian because you deserve it. Eight three three baggie tax. 788 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,399 Speaker 3: That's eight three three magitax. 789 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,760 Speaker 2: And think about it this way, whether you're refining your strategy, 790 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:09,280 Speaker 2: you're building from scratch, the goal is the same clarity, 791 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 2: control and confidence in every dollar that you earn, every 792 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 2: dollar you invest and protect. And that's where I think 793 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 2: a lot of people don't see that because they look 794 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 2: at the whole pile. We talk about piles of money, 795 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 2: but you should be looking at piece of it a 796 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 2: little bit out of time. And that's what we do 797 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 2: because I think the intimidating fact that Chris mentioned it before. 798 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 2: A retail advisor is going to sell you the whole 799 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,439 Speaker 2: ball of wax. Okay, a complete advisor is not going 800 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 2: to do that. That's what we're talking about today, income planning, 801 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 2: tax planning, okay, state planning, and this is what you 802 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,399 Speaker 2: have to think about because things have changing, and now 803 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 2: that you know about the new tax bill and how 804 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 2: it's going to affect you, sit down and let's do it. 805 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 2: Let's do it. Let's do a review. You have nothing 806 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 2: to lose, Okay, nothing to lose, but knowledge and understanding 807 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 2: what the language is in your plan, not the language 808 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 2: in someone else's planning. Chris, I think that's basically where 809 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 2: I see and you see it the same thing. Every day. 810 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 2: We get calls every day, what about this? What about that? 811 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,879 Speaker 2: That means you curious?
