Better Alternative to the High Premiums of Long Term Care Insurance
Posted by Philip Pent in Finance, Long Term Care, on Feb 20, 2013
Many people who bought long term care insurance were shocked when they found out their premiums were going up. To make it worse, industry insiders acted like it was okay. See this article from Kiplinger.com.
Fortunately there is a much better alternative...
A Better Alternative to Long Term Care Insurance
Posted by Philip Pent in on Feb 13, 2013
I don't likelong term care insurance. It's expensive and it may never be needed or used. On top of that, did you know that the premiums of any long term care policy can go up if the state deems it necessary? Yikes.
There is a much better way. Call us today at 1-877-797-7285. We will send you a free illustration showing how you can designate a small portion of your assets to cover all of your assets from the exesive costs of health care in later years.
A couple of high points: This type of coverage is 100% liquid and if you never use the coverage it doesn't cost a dime.

Act Now Teachers: Take Advantage of The Federal Part of Your Pension
Posted by Philip Pent in Finance, on Nov 08, 2012
There are two parts to your pension.
- State
- Federal
The state part of your pension, which is meant to provide about 40% of your retirement needs is automatic but the federal part, which is intended to fill in retirement income gaps, is not.
Many teachers don't know that for every $100 deferred from your take home pay and placed into a 403(b), $133 is saved in your name and on your behalf in a retirement account of your choosing. (example is based on the most common 25% tax bracket)
Now what? It's easy.
403(b)'s are set up at no cost to you through a third party administrator. That's where we come in. Call or e-mail us to start the process and we will explain to you your options for the federal part of your pension and you can start taking advantage of this huge benefit today.

Protect Your Retirement Savings from the Next Market Crash
Posted by Philip Pent in on Jun 15, 2012

A Year ago, Bob (62) came to our office for a Financial Second Opinion. He had a mix of mutual funds and annuities with a total value of about $150,000. In his mind, Bob knew he needed to grow that money to $375,000 by the time he was 72, to fund a shortfall in his budget of $15,000.
He was going by an old rule of thumb taught by many money managers and brokers. It goes like this: If you have a nest egg and you want it to provide income for your retirement and you don’t want to run out of money, a safe withdrawal rate is 4%.
$375,000 x .04 = $15,000
The big problem? He needed a growth rate of 9.6% per year for 10 years to grow his money to his goal. The previous decade of the market had only done 2.23% and he had lost faith in the value of investing in mutual funds with asset fees of 1%.
2.23% - 1% = 1.23% (after fee)
Here’s where the problem was solved. Bob came in , and through a Financial Second Opinion, we showed him that he didn’t need $375,000. In reality he only needed to grow his supplemental nest egg to about $175,000.
The big question. Why? How? The answer: When you eliminate risk in your portfolio it is easier to promise higher pay-outs. Brokers quote a 4% withdrawal rate because they know your money is at risk and have to take loss of principal into account.
The pay-out Bob will receive at age 72 will be 7.9% for life. So if Bob’s account only grows to $175,000 he will be right where he needs to be.
$175,976 x .079 = $14,976
Bob came to us stressed and feeling behind in saving for his retirement. He left feeling relaxed knowing a larger portion of his savings was protected from the volatility of the market.

The 5 Year CD Rates are hovering at about 1.69% according to BankRate.com. At the time of this posting I can't think of any good reason to buy a 5yr CD. There is a much better alternative.
There is a 5yr FIA with an "A" Rated company that will keep your money from market risk and pays interest based on the Barklay's Capital Bond Index. In the last 5 years it returned 4.74%, 1.64%, 5.4%, 3.3%, and 4.72%. On top of this interest, owners have 10% liquidity each year. You can't do that with a CD. On top of this liquidity benefit, the account is tax deffered. This means you won't be getting a 1099 each year and owing taxes on the annual growth, further depleating your annual return, until distribution.
