1. Asset Protection
We specialize in helping retirees protect their retirement assets, while moving forward. Traditionally, if you wanted to achieve strong gains, you had to incur higher risk. And if you wanted greater safety, you had to accept very low returns. That is no longer the case. Now you can give yourself the opportunity for higher gains, without any of the usual risk. Contact our office to learn about newer alternatives that are perfect for today's volatile environment.
Through a strategic partnership, we are also able to offer our clients gold and silver – to strengthen and diversify their portfolio. Allocating the right amount of assets in precious metals, serves as a form of wealth protection, when other assets are falling.

3. Tax Minimization
The greatest danger to your retirement assets, is not market volatility. It’s actually the long term impact of state and federal taxes, on qualified retirement accounts, i.e. IRAs, 401ks, 403bs, etc.
Proper planning with qualified retirement accounts – to include strategic roll-overs – can dramatically reduce income taxes, preserve your Social Security and minimize the cost of Medicare premiums.
We use simple, comparison software, to help you see and understand your projected tax bill in retirement – as well as your potential tax savings – by implementing a few simple steps. The difference is profound!

4. IRMAA and Medical / Long-Term Care Costs
It goes without saying that medical and long-term care costs continue to rise substantially. However, directly related to the increasing cost of care is the potentially increasing cost of your Medicare premiums. Based on newer government income brackets (IRMAA), the higher your taxable income in retirement, the higher the cost of your Medicare premiums, which in turn can directly impact your Social Security payments.
It is the very distributions – from the qualified accounts which you were told to fund – which drive taxable income in retirement. Therefore, a strategy to address the increasing costs of care and premiums should be front and center in any retirement plan. Call us to learn how we can illustrate these projected Medicare premium costs, the impact on your Social Security payments and options to address the problem.

5. Legacy and Estate Planning
Many parents and grandparents, would like to leave a legacy to their kids and\or grandkids, but aren’t sure of the best way to proceed. When creating a Legacy Estate plan, three of the most important factors to consider are:
(a) Utilizing financial products, which create strategic leverage – relative to the amounts used for funding.
(b) Cooperative family planning (as applicable), so as to minimize the cost and maximize the benefit of your plan.
(c) Addressing all tax implications, of the accounts and plans that are used.
You’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish, simply by proper deployment of existing assets. This can also include the transfer of private asset gold and silver – to certain family members.
