Concerned You Will Not Retire In Comfort?

Traditionally people have considered their retirement 401Ks and
IRAs to be like safety nets rather than wealth builders
However, with the self directed IRA, you need not be satisfied
with growth rates in the single digits It is possible to
realize phenomenal growth potential outside of the traditional
IRA markets, tripling and quadrupling your IRA’s value is not
uncommon, within relatively short period of time It will not
just happen, however You have to take the reins of your
retirement portfolio, put in the time and effort, and do your
research The possibilities are endless to those who are
prepared to make the investment paradigm shift
Most savvy investors, due to the ups and downs of the stock
market, are frankly not as confident as they once were in the
old financial planner adage that the stock market is going to go
up forever If your memory is a little foggy, then reflect back
just a few short years
Concerned that you will not retire in comfort? Put your IRA
money to work and truly diversify your IRA portfolio with
alternative investment vehicles Your banker and broker will not
allow you to invest in alternative investments because they want
complete visibility and control over your IRA In the meantime,
they are earning fantastic returns on your money Isn’t it time
you take the driver’s seat
Fundamentally, what do you need?
· Sufficient funds in your self-directed IRA
· Intimate knowledge of a permissible alternative investing
strategy for the IRA (such as real estate investing, purchasing
discounted paper, private money lending, or gold investing)
· A Self-Directed IRA Advisor that can share valuable
information and advice
· A low fixed annual fee to pay your custodian, while you
maintain full checkbook control at all times You – not they -
issue the checks for managing your investment
Provided you satisfy IRA regulations on the type of investments
allowed for your self-directed IRA funds (real estate is only
one of several possibilities), you can take charge of your
financial future by turning that IRA into a high-earning
instrument
The IRS’s position is clear, as defined in their publication
590: your IRA should be a separate and distinct entity from
yourself Whatever investments you make should benefit your IRA,
and not you directly Your self directed ira advisor will be
able to explain the subtleties and refinements of this IRS
publication
It’s your money If we told you that there are about $7 trillion
dollars sitting in IRAs but of that amount, only 3% are
self-directed, wouldn’t you be curious about how you can be part
of that 3% that unknown to most, are enjoying unheard of
returns?
