What’s your income today? Is it enough? How much money do you need to be saving in order to live life like you do now or better once you retire and the income isn’t coming in?

If you don’t know or your financial advisor can’t tell you in less than 10 minutes…you might want to talk to us!

Thank you everyone! Here’s to 2023!

Efficiency: Paying minimal tax and interest, maximizing earnings, cutting unnecessary expenses.

Control: Not NEEDING the bank, but being your own source of funding. Access to funds without penalties or extra taxes. Not being stuck in high interest debt.

Minimal Risk: Your foundational wealth systems shouldn’t be exposed to market and/or legislative risk. And “high risk” does NOT always equal “high reward.”

Knowledge: Don’t wing it, you need to know the RULES and the STRATEGIES. There’s a lot of information out there and you might have different preferences than other people. Spend the time to sort through it all and truly understand. Your money is too important to just hope for the best…

If you don’t feel like your finances meet these different criteria, just shoot me a message. We can do a free introduction meeting to see if I can help in these areas. It’s too important to to avoid or wait on!

Most people don’t really know the impact of inflation and taxes on their income.

Saving $10,000 isn’t as much as you think. Having $100,000 isn’t as much a you think.

Planning on having $1 Million for retirement will not get you as far as you think.

Do you know how much money you need to have in retirement to comfortably live how you are now or better?

If you don’t know…I can show you. DM me “RRON” I’ll show you exactly how much you need to save for retirement.

There’s so much information out there in which account your money should be in, what investments to do, etc.

At the end of the day we can all agree that whatever you do…your money better be earning compound interest.

Make sure your savings/investments are compounding, if not, let’s fix that.

Not sure what to do? Message me and let’s see if there’s any info I can give you to help!

“Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. He who understand it, earns it; he who doesn’t, pays for it.” - Albert Einstein

However you choose to save/invest, make sure your money is growing via compound interest! There are better ways to do this than others…

I saw a quote somewhere that said something like “if you only have one source of income, you’re one step away from disaster.”

It’s absolutely critical these days to have multiple sources of income. Your earned income isn’t going to be enough, you have to find the efficient ways to earn other sources!

High interest debt is a nasty thing. From a savings standpoint…you want to pay off the costs that are costing you the most FIRST and then work your way down.

I know the “debt snowball” says smallest amount first, and that’s fine if you want to do that. Just be sure to consider the overall “cost” of the debt and not just the size. Hopefully the highest interest debt is also the smallest debt too 😬

Message me if you have questions or concerns

Taxes, while necessary, are a burden. Unfortunately most of us are paying more in taxes than needed.

Figuring out how much taxes you need to pay as well as tax planning for your investments is pretty simple to calculate and adjust if we sit down with you. We are more than happy to help you keep your hard earned money, you just have to ask!

I love this quote! What a creative way to say that the banks aren't here to help you build wealth.

You have to invest your money in the useful tools available to you outside of the bank.

Every little bit helps right? While none of these are going to make you rich, they do help bring in a little bit of extra cash on items you were already going to pay for anyways.

Coinout is simply taking pictures of your receipts. It is literally 8 or 10 cents per receipt, but hey…it’s something.

Fluz is one of my favorite apps for cash back. The app sometimes has a difficult time working, but when it does (which is most of the time) it is legit…How it works is you find a store/restaurant you want to shop at on the app (starbucks, amazon, gas stations, etc). You will buy a gift card from the app to that place. You will get a percentage cash back for your purchase and you just use the digital gift card. I have used this app a lot and earned over $100.

GetUpside, is legit too. Simply put…you claim offers at local gas stations and you receive cash back depending on the rewards per gallon. You will probably save more with grocery store rewards points, but if you don’t use those then you HAVE to use GetUpside. Especially with gas prices how they are.

The Bumped app is a stock rewards app. You get a certain amount of shares of stock in a company that you shop at. That money moves with the stock market (so it can grow or shrink) and if the stock pays dividends, you get that as well. It is a little limited of an app, but still pretty good!

The Amazon Shopper app is a must for Amazon customers. You simply take pictures of 10 receipts and you get a $10 automatically applied to your Amazon account. It is limited to that per month. But that is $120 year right? Helpful around Christmas time…

If you are interested in any of these let me know. I can send you referral links to the apps and we both get some bonus cash to start. Or just go download them yourself...I just want you to get cash back!

Annuities could be a good option for those who are looking for some safer options to provide income later on in life along with some other benefits.

Annuities can be confusing though as there are many different options for different clients wants and needs. But I have found most people do not even know they exist.

It is best to sit down with a financial professional (me) and see if this could be a good option for you.

When I say you need to start "investing" I don't necessarily mean buying into the stock market. You have to put money somewhere for it to grow or work for you. Whether that's in the market, alternative investments, insurance, savings, whatever!

An example of annuities are regular deposits to a savings account, monthly mortgage payments, monthly insurance premiums, etc.

You can also purchase an annuity for yourself. This is a long-term investment that is issued by an insurance company and is designed to help protect you from the risk of outliving your income.

Ah…the classic debate of if you need life insurance and which one do you get?

I personally would say that if anyone depends on you/your income, you know someone would have to take care of your expenses upon your death, or you want to leave money behind for others…then you NEED life insurance.

That should cover almost everyone…so the question is which one do you get?

Whole (or permanent) has a bad reputation mainly because it costs more and it can be more confusing but Term is slightly misunderstood as well.

So which one is most appropriate for you? How do these work? Depends on your situation… 👇👇

You have probably seen this word before with your IRA's and 401k's, specifically regarding taxes.

If you see a "tax-deferred" account...that means you do not have to pay taxes on that account today. Just know...you WILL have to pay taxes on it eventually though. So don't forget 😉

The average annual tuition and fees for an out-of-state public university was $27,120 in 2019-2020

Do not think that number will be close to that in 12-15 years and that you’ll need to save around $30,000 for them each year.

Assuming tuition follows inflation at the average of 3%...that would make your first year of college in 2045 cost approximately $39,826.63

Unfortunately…studies show tuition outpaces inflation at double the rate. So you’ll want to calculate with 5 or 6%.

Expensive huh? So what is the most efficient way to save for a child’s education? 👇👇

When coins used to be made with precious metals, people would shave some off so they could gradually collect enough to melt down and sell as a large piece of valuable metal, but still try to use the coins they shaved from at full value.

Quarters and dimes aren't made of silver anymore...but they kept the ridges on them.
