So, Chris, we have a lot 27 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 2: to talk about. We're going to talk about tax risk 28 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: and legislative risk. So let's get started. 29 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 3: Well, let's just say so welcome everyone, Thank you so 30 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 3: much for listening to our show today. There's so much 31 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 3: to cover, and let me talk about what my dad 32 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 3: was mentioning before. When you go to our website, the RTB, 33 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 3: the retirement tax bomb, if you have an IRA A 34 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 3: four to one K, you have to stop and you 35 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 3: have to understand what's going on because that is a 36 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 3: huge tax liability you're going to pay in the future, 37 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 3: and many people just keep deferring taxes and put money 38 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 3: away in the form one ks and iras well. Maybe 39 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 3: that could be a bucket that year used to having, 40 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 3: which is fine because you get a nice tax deduction, 41 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 3: but think about creating other buckets that are tax free 42 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 3: because as things change in this country, taxes are going 43 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 3: to go up. And that's what we're talking about today, 44 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 3: tax risk and legislative risk. So what the heck is 45 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 3: the difference? 46 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 2: Well, as things stay hot in Washington, and they have 47 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 2: been and they always will be. I'm getting asked this 48 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 2: question more and more, Chris, and I see clients every day. 49 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 2: But both are intertwined risk that can dramatically impact us 50 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 2: savers like you, like all of us, and both are 51 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 2: risk on most savers are underprepared to address. So let's 52 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 2: talk about the first one, because this is the biggest 53 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: one tax risk. Tax risk is the risk that a 54 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 2: person's taxes are going to be higher in retirement than planned. 55 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 2: And Chris, most of the people that we see don't 56 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 2: see that because they're not ready to retire or they 57 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: have like you just talked about with the retirement calculator. Yeah, 58 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: they're going to defer it. They don't have to take 59 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 2: it out till seventy three. Now, no problem, But that's 60 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 2: the window that you have to do. The tax strategy 61 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 2: you're talking about bucket planning and reducing the tax risk absolutely, 62 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 2: and those are the strategies that we can use and 63 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 2: we do it each and every day. 64 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 3: But the misconception is that many people think, well, I'll 65 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 3: be in a lower tax bracket when I retire, And 66 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 3: maybe that might be the case, but is a lot 67 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 3: of times it's not. And as taxes increase and people 68 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 3: take more out of qualified accounts like iras and form 69 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,639 Speaker 3: and case, it's creating tax on solid security. It can 70 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 3: be up to eighty five percent tax on social Security, 71 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 3: and that's where tax rates are going to increase and 72 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,399 Speaker 3: you're gonna pay more in tax. So that's where many 73 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 3: people think, well, I'm just sixty five, I'm gonna pay 74 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 3: less in tax. 75 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 4: It has nothing to do with your age. 76 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: It has to do with the income and the sources 77 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 3: of income that you're putting on your tax return that's 78 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 3: generating the tax. 79 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,679 Speaker 2: And that's a great point you make there, because a 80 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 2: lot of people don't see that. And then the other 81 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 2: side of it is when you start transferring money from 82 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 2: a taxable account and you pay the taxes. Now, it 83 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 2: could if you're over sixty five, or if you're on Medicare, 84 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 2: could affect the arm attax on your Part B. 85 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 3: Which is the Medicare tax that you pay for Part 86 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 3: B and premium for Medicare. 87 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 2: People don't see that, Chris, It's ridiculous. So what does 88 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: that mean. It means more of a retire's income is 89 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: going to the irs as taxes and less of the 90 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 2: income is staying with the retireee like you to spend 91 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 2: on living expenses. Because think about this, you should be 92 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 2: putting a budget together, Chris, and I always ask you 93 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 2: when you come in, what's your budget because a lot 94 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 2: of people don't know what they're spending. And you know 95 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: it's not good if you spend more than you make. 96 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: And to prove this, visit Maggie tax dot com and 97 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: on the top right you're going to click on the 98 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 2: retirement calculator.

And unless you sit 123 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 2: down with a tax person like us who does tax planning, 124 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 2: advanced tax planning, you're not going to know. You're not 125 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 2: going to know until you file that tax return. So 126 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 2: we're talking about your IRA, your four H three B 127 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 2: or your TSP plan. It's a tax time bomb. And 128 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 2: people come in and they laugh and they go I 129 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 2: didn't know that it was a tax time bomb. Well 130 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 2: it is, and it's going to be worse as time 131 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 2: passes by. So check it out and see what we mean. 132 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 2: We're about to see tax risk in action. In twenty 133 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 2: twenty five, several provisions from the twenty seventeen tax will expire. 134 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 2: This includes that reduction in individual income tax brackets. And 135 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 2: if you want to copy of the tax brackets, send 136 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 2: me an email or call me and I'll send it 137 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 2: to you to prove my point, because when we do seminars, 138 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 2: we give this out and it's going to change, meaning 139 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 2: that your tax bracket's going to go up three percent 140 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: and you're going to be paying more in taxes. And 141 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 2: I'm telling you, people just hear it, and they hear 142 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 2: it and they don't do anything about it. And it's 143 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: like when you open up the door and there's a 144 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 2: big win com and you're going to get hit with it. 145 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 4: So let's try to avoid that. Now. Well that's just it. 146 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 3: So when as you listen to our show today, you 147 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 3: know we're talking about taxes, and many people say, I'll 148 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 3: just deal with it during tax season, but it's not 149 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 3: the way to go about this. Taxes are our biggest 150 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 3: expense and they're going to get worse, especially if you're 151 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 3: a savior. So if you have iras and form on case, 152 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 3: we need to start doing bucket planning. What do I 153 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 3: mean by bucket planning? We need to position accounts that 154 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 3: are a taxable into non taxable account accounts. We talk 155 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 3: about the level of risk that you're taking with your money. 156 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 3: Do you need an income plan? Well, we can develop 157 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 3: an income plan where you can have investment safety and preservation, 158 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 3: also investment growth, and also make sure that the money 159 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 3: that you receive is income tax free. 160 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 4: So think about this. 161 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 3: Would you rather be in an environment where you're going 162 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 3: to get taxed on everything you take out or would 163 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 3: you rather be in an environment where it's tax free, 164 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 3: it's never taxed anymore. And you can develop these buckets 165 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 3: if you meet with the right advisors. So pick up 166 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 3: the phone, schedule time to meet with us. Eight three 167 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 3: to three magi tax. That's eight three to three maggie tax. 168 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 3: And a simple word as we call it, strategic planning. 169 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 3: You don't want to just put everything in one bucket. 170 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 3: You want it strategically spread it out.

He thought he 268 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 2: had one point five million in his IRA and once 269 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 2: we sat down and show him the retirement tax bill 270 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 2: and a calculator. I'm not laughing, but he was shocked 271 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 2: that half of that was not his money. So he 272 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 2: saved all his life for this and now he has 273 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 2: to do something. So education from Maggie Tax is so important. 274 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 2: And why financial education is important, it's because due to 275 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 2: recent tax law changes. We talk about legislative risk, an 276 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 2: uncertain future for social security, and the shift toward employee 277 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 2: directed retirement plans. The need for sound financial strategies has 278 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 2: never been greater. That's what Chris and I talk about, 279 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 2: a complete plan. So if you're listening to this and 280 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 2: you don't have an income plan, or a tax plan, 281 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 2: or an insurance plan or an investment plan, you have 282 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 2: an incomplete plan.

Robert and 426 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: Chris Maggie. 427 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 2: Welcome every want to thanks for joining us. My name 428 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 2: is Robert Maggie. I'm here with my son Chris Maggie 429 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 2: and today we're talking about what we do for a 430 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 2: lot of people on the Roth conversions and why it's 431 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 2: so important to get it done correctly. So if you 432 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 2: have an account, a Brokente account, or you have just 433 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 2: a savings account and you need some information on how 434 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 2: to put a plan together, that's what Chris and I 435 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 2: are going to talk about, because it's not just investments, 436 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 2: it's more because it's an income plan, it's a tax plan, 437 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 2: it's a legacy plan, and what about your beneficiaries. So 438 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 2: we're going to talk about how we put this together, 439 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 2: because now we're going to put this car, this vehicle 440 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 2: together so you can drive away in the tax free environment. 441 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 2: So Chris, let's start with you know, a typical client 442 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 2: comes in and they bring in their statements and we 443 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 2: see they have brokered statements and there's non qualified and qualified, 444 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 2: which brings up another point. Sometimes I don't even know 445 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 2: what they have. So how do we start to make 446 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 2: it easy for them to understand how to separate that 447 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 2: money and start putting it into bucket planning. 448 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 3: Well, that's it, you know a great question. My gosh, 449 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 3: many people come in with all these statements and they 450 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 3: have piles of money they don't know where and what 451 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 3: those accounts are. Are they taxable, they non taxable? Can 452 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 3: you generate income from them or can you not? So 453 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 3: they're just confused, right, and they've been with their advisor 454 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 3: maybe for a couple of years or for a long time, 455 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 3: it doesn't matter. 456 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 4: But maybe they're not doing the complete plan for them. 457 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 3: Maybe they're just doing transactional an account or I've had 458 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 3: this advisor or brokerage account for ten years and it's 459 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 3: just sitting there. Well is it? Are you taking the 460 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 3: right risk with that account? So what we do is 461 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 3: we can do a couple of things. Number one, we 462 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 3: set up a balance sheet. We show you where your 463 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 3: accounts are, it's taxable, it's non taxable, all on one sheet. 464 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 3: We show you type of income you're currently taking. And 465 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 3: this makes a lot of sense to people because it's 466 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,959 Speaker 3: about education. So we educate you on what you have. 467 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 3: And then we can go into step number two, go 468 00:20:59,240 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 3: back to. 469 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 4: The balance because it's always some enlightening. 470 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 2: A lot of advisors don't do a balance sheet, and 471 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 2: we do it from the ground up. You know what's 472 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 2: sood security, what there's savings accounts are, if it's non qualified, 473 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 2: if it's qualified and goes into the beneficiary. 474 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:15,479 Speaker 4: And who you want to leave it to. 475 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 2: So the biggest concern that I think people have is 476 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 2: that when they meet with an advisor that they're gonna 477 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 2: come in and they're gonna take all their money and 478 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 2: they're gonna put all their money into one bucket. 479 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 4: And they don't want to do that. 480 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 2: So how do you separate to educate the client that 481 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 2: you can put money in safe buckets. You can still 482 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 2: put money in some risky buckets, but not all of it. 483 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 2: And we've seen this every single time when a client comes. 484 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 4: In with a statement. 485 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 3: Absolutely, So leading into step two is that we can 486 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 3: analyze your accounts and you're right, this is your money. 487 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 4: Let's just talk about this. 488 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 3: It's not your advisor's money, it's not your CPAs, it's 489 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 3: your money. So if you come in and you have 490 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 3: a million dollars and you have two hundred and fifty 491 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,479 Speaker 3: thousand in a stock that you love because you've been 492 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 3: with it for a long time, why can't you keep 493 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 3: sure you can. There's nothing wrong with saying you can't, 494 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 3: but let's see how it plays in your plan. Let's 495 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 3: get educated and let's show you what type of risk 496 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 3: that will take and maybe we have to peel off 497 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 3: a little bit of that money to get the income 498 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 3: that you need or for the right risk level that 499 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 3: you're looking for. 500 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 4: So Dad, you're right. 501 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 3: We can create the buckets of money, and a lot 502 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 3: of people are looking for safety for their core. They 503 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 3: want to protect their money. We call it green money buckets. 504 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 3: Those are safe money where you don't lose anything, there's 505 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,439 Speaker 3: no fees where you protect your money. So if the 506 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 3: market goes down, guess what those are your protection buckets. 507 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 3: Then you can have yellow money. Yellow money's we're actively 508 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 3: manage the money. That's where you can have different purposes 509 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 3: with accounts. You can have an inflation protection bucket. You 510 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 3: can have an account that generates dividends, you can have 511 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 3: an account that has growth stocks, ETFs a lot of 512 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 3: different positions that are managed effectively. And you can have 513 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 3: a red bucket where if you want to have your 514 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,239 Speaker 3: own account that you actively manage or play with, then 515 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 3: you could do that too. But having a holistic, a 516 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 3: pro coach with your accounts and knowing where your money's 517 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 3: at is so crucial, and many people, we find out 518 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 3: don't have that in place. 519 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 4: You mentioned a keyword holistic. 520 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 2: We had a client call last week and I've had 521 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,239 Speaker 2: it many times and they say, can you explain what 522 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 2: holistic means? Because I've never heard that word before. And folks, 523 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,360 Speaker 2: it's a simple word because it's about your money. It's 524 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 2: about all your money and where you're going to put it. 525 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 2: And the cool thing about it is that think about 526 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 2: this for a second. You save money, you put it 527 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 2: in a savings account, or you put it in a 528 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 2: checking account. Why do you do that because it's liquid 529 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 2: money and you don't want to take the risk of 530 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 2: losing the money. 531 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 4: Right. 532 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:37,719 Speaker 2: I know it's a low interest rate, we get that, 533 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 2: but we can show you some ways to make that better. 534 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 2: But then you've got to start thinking about the rest 535 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 2: of your money. Like Chris is talking about, has anyone 536 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 2: sat down with you and said, hey, you know what, 537 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 2: you're taking ninety percent risk in your investments and if 538 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 2: the market goes down, you're going to lose. And the 539 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 2: question is then what do you do now? Okay, you're 540 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 2: going to go back to your advisor and say, well, 541 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 2: you know, you put it in the wrong bucket. You've 542 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 2: got to sit down, you have to have a conversation, 543 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 2: you have to understand what we're talking about, because you 544 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 2: are going to make the final decision where when when 545 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,440 Speaker 2: you put to bucket planning, how much you want in income, 546 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 2: how much you want green money, how much you want 547 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 2: in yellow money. And I bet people listening right now, Chris, 548 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 2: their advisors aren't talking about red, green, and yellow. 549 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 4: No they're not. And that's the thing. 550 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 3: They just have you this broker's account and it's just 551 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 3: sitting there and this is what it's done over the 552 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 3: past year, and don't worry, it's going to come back 553 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 3: when if it goes down, but over time it's going 554 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,959 Speaker 3: to be okay. Yeah, those are the general answers to 555 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 3: the questions that people are having. But at the end 556 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 3: of the day, you've done working, you're retired, you're about 557 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 3: to retire. So many people are in the accumulation phase 558 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,199 Speaker 3: of their life, and when they retire, they're still in 559 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 3: the accumulation phase of their life. But there's the distribution 560 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 3: phase that you have to shift to. And it doesn't 561 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 3: mean just hunker down and protect your money with all 562 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 3: of it. That's not what we're saying. We're saying here 563 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 3: is that you have to have a clue, you have 564 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,360 Speaker 3: to have a plan. You have to have a purpose 565 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 3: with every dollar you have, and that's why you create 566 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 3: When you come in to meet with us, we're going 567 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 3: to put together an investment plan. We're going to show 568 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 3: you where one your risk, what your risk level is, 569 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 3: and if you are reaching that or not, maybe you're 570 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:11,959 Speaker 3: taking more risk than you need to. Maybe you're not 571 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 3: taking as much risk than you need to as well, 572 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 3: so we can evaluate that for you. That's step number two. 573 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 3: Step number three is put together a plan. We can 574 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 3: allocate the different buckets and your money into different buckets 575 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:23,719 Speaker 3: where you're going to have a purpose. 576 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 4: You're going to have a plan. 577 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 3: So if this market does go down, you have now money, 578 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 3: they just protect it. Your later money you can let 579 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,879 Speaker 3: it grow, you can invest that money. If you are 580 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 3: a forty year old, that's fine, or fifty year old, 581 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 3: that's fine. But making sure that you have segments of 582 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 3: money and buckets put together with the right purpose. 583 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 2: And here's the question that all of you should be 584 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 2: asking yourself, what if what if something happens to me 585 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 2: today I'm working, I've got money coming in. How much 586 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 2: do you have put aside that's going to give you 587 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 2: the income that you need every month? Where is it 588 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 2: going to come from. Is it going to come from 589 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 2: solid security? Is it going to come from a pension 590 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 2: without disrupting the rest of your account? And Chris, I 591 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 2: think that's the biggest fear of people have is running 592 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 2: out of money and they don't know where to get it. 593 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 3: When they do, well, that's it. You hit it on 594 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 3: the head. I don't care if you have fifty thousand 595 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:09,880 Speaker 3: or ten million dollars. 596 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 4: I'll tell you what. 597 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 3: Most people who have a lot of money, their main 598 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 3: concern is running out of money. And many people say, well, 599 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 3: they have plenty of money. Know what they're worried about 600 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 3: is losing it. They're worried about if the market goes 601 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 3: down and running out of money. So how do you 602 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 3: combat that? Well, that's where the income plan comes into play. 603 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 3: And that's why it's so important to make sure you 604 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 3: have an income plan. If we asked you, what's your 605 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 3: income plan? Can can you define it? Well? 606 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right. 607 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 3: You have soci security from a husband and spouse. Some 608 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 3: people have a pension. Maybe some people don't even have 609 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 3: a survivor benefit. So if anything happens to that person, 610 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 3: it stops. So what are you doing? Those are three 611 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 3: income streams. But what if you need more money, where 612 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 3: do you take the money in a most tax efficient 613 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,439 Speaker 3: way so you can have the income, preserve your money 614 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 3: and not have to worry instead of going back to work. 615 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 3: That's generating an income plant.

Now your 711 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: host with Maggie Tax and Wealth Advisors, Robert and Chris Maggie. 712 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 2: Welcome back, and you're listening to the Magne Tax and 713 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 2: Financial Show. And today we've been talking about tax risk 714 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 2: and legislative risk and a whole bunch of other things. 715 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 2: But what thing I want to bring back this is 716 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 2: for the person out there that has been investing in 717 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,239 Speaker 2: this for a long time. In the advisor community, they 718 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 2: learn to identify that risk by they created using fancy 719 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 2: terms like alpha and beta. How many people know that 720 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 2: and the industry helped create tools like Monte Carlo simulations 721 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 2: to quantify that risk for clients. 722 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 4: How many know that? Okay, I'm not worried about that. 723 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 2: Finally, advisors would use those tools to build act allocation 724 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:42,959 Speaker 2: models to mitigate market risk, not mitigate tax risk. So 725 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 2: the question is every time we see a client come in, 726 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 2: did you open up your statement? 727 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 4: Do you know what you have? 728 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 2: And they say no, I don't. They don't know about alpha, 729 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 2: beta and all this other stuff. They just look at 730 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 2: the bottom line and they look at how many fees 731 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 2: they're paying. Well, what is the advisor doing for you? 732 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 2: He's not doing tax risk, he's not doing income risk. 733 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 4: So what was he doing? Just grown your assets? 734 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 2: The focus on accumulating wealth was the primary focus until 735 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 2: a few things happened. The dot com bubble burst, followed 736 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 2: shortly there after by the financial crisis, and suddenly savers 737 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 2: were reaching retirement age with depleted assets and no plan 738 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 2: to generate income. And that problem was compounded by the 739 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 2: reality that retirees were living longer than ever. So none 740 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 2: of these advisors talked about future tax free money or income. 741 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 2: And I asked it before, how much income do you 742 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 2: need for the rest of your life to go to 743 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 2: that mailbox every month and get the check that you want. 744 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 2: Advisors learned to identify that income risk, go a longevity risk. 745 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 2: That's what we do. And suddenly it wasn't enough to 746 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 2: just accumulate funds. Savers needed a plan to make those 747 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 2: funds last a lifetime. 748 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 4: Chris, And that's. 749 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,959 Speaker 2: What we see every day now because people are confused, 750 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 2: they're isolated, and they're angry. Would you think it's because 751 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 2: they got the wrong information, they were taught the wrong language. 752 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 4: Well, this is what's happening. 753 00:32:57,840 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 3: People coming in for a tax preparation and guess what 754 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 3: when they're not clients of ours, they're clients of other advisors. 755 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 3: They come in and they say, I want to get 756 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 3: a plan, So we do the taxes for them, and 757 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 3: guess what. They're upset they have to pay a tax 758 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 3: liability and they said, well, my advisor never showed me 759 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 3: a tax plan. So what if you could have a 760 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 3: plan where you have buckets of money. Just think about 761 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 3: this for a sec What if you have a buckets 762 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 3: of money that have growth with investments that are allocated 763 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 3: the right way to your risk tolerance. What if you 764 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 3: have a couple other buckets that generate guaranteed income, so 765 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 3: you can go to the mailbox each and every month 766 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 3: and grab that check and spend the heck out of 767 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 3: it and do it all over again for the rest 768 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 3: of your life. And what if you have like an 769 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 3: inflation bucket, right, you can always tap into so when 770 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 3: things hit the fan, you can always tap into and 771 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 3: have income so you don't have to worry about the 772 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 3: inflation or running out of money. Then what if you 773 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 3: had those buckets, every one of them, make sure that 774 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 3: they pass to where you wanted to go and avoid 775 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 3: the probate process. Then what if you had some of 776 00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 3: those buckets that are tax free, so when you use 777 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 3: taxes every year, you take some from a taxable environment, 778 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 3: some from a tax free and you can stay under 779 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 3: the threshold income so maybe you don't have to file 780 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 3: a tax return or your effective tax rate is very low. 781 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,919 Speaker 3: That's how you do planning. What if you can have that, Well, 782 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 3: that's what the Maggie Plan's all about. That's the holistic 783 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 3: plan that we do. It's not about just giving your money, 784 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 3: let me manage it for you. Anybody can do that. 785 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 3: There's more to it. So when you think about what's 786 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 3: happening right now. You're following the crowd. You're the same 787 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 3: as every one of people out there. And there's a 788 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 3: small percentage of people out there that actually have what 789 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 3: I just talked about because there's so many people out 790 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,840 Speaker 3: there that don't know what to do. If you're listening today, 791 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 3: I urge you to pick up the phone, schedule a 792 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,239 Speaker 3: time to meet with us, get a second opinion on 793 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 3: your plan. Eight three three magi tax. That's eight three 794 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 3: to three maggie tax. 795 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 2: So the question is how do you make your money 796 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 2: last a lifetime? And what happened things change in this industry. 797 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 2: Annuities came out guaranteed income riders that people have. That 798 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 2: was the perfect solution to provide a guaranteed check and 799 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 2: clients could retire and outlive their money. 800 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 4: In the year two. 801 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 2: Thousand, advisors became experts in income planning, addressed this major 802 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 2: concern and that's what we do. And shortly thereafter, most 803 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 2: advisors across the industry were using annuities to offset income risk. Now, 804 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 2: don't panic when I say the word annuities, because if 805 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 2: you look at your Social Security and your pension, that 806 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 2: is that's an annuity. So think about it. You just 807 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 2: don't understand the language and how they apply, and some 808 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 2: may be bad. I get it, Chris understands. But until 809 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,360 Speaker 2: you sit down and see how the annuity process works. 810 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,240 Speaker 2: You want guaranteed income for life, you want a certain amount, 811 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 2: we can help you. So today the headlines are all 812 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 2: about taxes, all right. 813 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 4: They just bypassed everything. They shoved it under the blanket. 814 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 2: Advisers who understand tax risks today, like we do with Maggie, 815 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 2: tax are the reason why we are successful. 816 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 4: Many of you know us. 817 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 2: Many of you come in and see us and you 818 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 2: understand the plan, and we do complete planning. And I'll 819 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 2: say it again, you do not have a complete plan 820 00:35:58,239 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 2: if you do not have a tax plan or an 821 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 2: in come plan. And we can apply the same financial 822 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 2: process we used to address market and income risks. We 823 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:09,800 Speaker 2: want to help clients identify your tax risk, quantifying dollars 824 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 2: and cents. That's the bottom line.
