Turn Your 401K Retirement Account Into A High-yielding Retirement Vehicle

 

“My friend and client Mark was able to liquidate and leverage his 401(k) successfully. When we were creating his portfolio game plan, we were torn between using his home equity or his 401(k). We decided to use his 401(k) because he was living month-to-month, and refinancing his mortgage would have increased the monthly payment by several hundred dollars. Even though we knew that his new investment cash flow would offset that payment increase, we wanted to make sure he would be safe. He liquidated his 401(k) and bought two investment properties that together generate $650 per month of positive cash flow. Furthermore, those properties will most likely yield him $225,000 net profit within four years.”

This experience of Mark’s was detailed in our book, “The Straight Path to Real Estate Wealth”. Mark’s experience show one example of how Strongbrook has been able to identify and leverage someone’s hidden assets (assets that someone has that are under-performing or not producing a real income).  You can get a free copy of this book on our website by signing up for our weekly newsletter.

Our Children Can Do The Impossible

“All parents believe their children can do the impossible. They thought it the minute we were born, and no matter how hard we’ve tried to prove them wrong, they all think it about us now. And the really annoying thing is, they’re probably right”

- Cathy Guisewite

There's a Problem With Our Retirement Accounts

Our government  and most companies encourage us to save for retirement in 401K’s.  Our tax accountants recommend saving in IRA’s.  And society tells us to pay off our homes so we won’t have a mortgage payment to worry about.  Each of these investment vehicles provides a way for us to save money for our retirement.  But there is a problem inherent with each of these savings vehicles: do any of these actually pay you money on a monthly basis?

Once we hit retirement these vehicles don’t really have the ability to sustain our lifestyle.  We have to start withdrawing money from our IRA’s and 401K’s which reduces their ability to produce.  Our homes, while they don’t have a mortgage, continue to have taxes, insurance payments and utilities expenses to keep them going so they still drain our monetary resources.  Even if these retirement vehicles have increased in value over time they still lack the ability to pay us monthly when we need them, in retirement.

What we need is a vehicle that will go up in value over time but that has the ability to create income that we can use in retirement.  If we don’t find and utilize such a vehicle then our retirement will fall into the sad statistics of those dependent on social security.

 

Fortunately, we have an alternative to the traditional retirement plan.  We can put together a retirement game plan for you that can show you exactly how to get to retirement in the next 5-10 years, starting with your current situation, and creating the assets and income to sustain you through those golden years.  To see the possibilities visit http://revolution.strongbrook.com and click on the “Get your free game plan report”.  It is FREE and there is never any obligation.  It’s just a chance to see the possibilities.

Will You Be Relying on Social Security?

Did you know that at age 65, 2 out of 3 people rely on social security for 50% of their income? 1 out of 3 relies on it for 90% and almost 1 out of 4 people relies on Social Security for 100% of their income.

You may be thinking “Too bad for those people but I won’t be one of them.”  Chances are pretty good that 20-30 years ago they were thinking the same thing.  However, no matter how much you want to believe otherwise, odds are pretty good that this could be your future or the future of someone you love.

 

Why do you think so many people are dependent on social security?  What did they do wrong to put them in this predicament?

Take Action - Have An Opportunist Mindset

Dear Optimist, Pessimist and Realist,

While you guys were busy arguing about the glass of water being half-full or half-empty, I came and drank it.

Sincerely, the Opportunist

Our mindset is absolutely critical and will determine whether we will be successful in our lives. The situations that we find ourselves in can be distilled down to a few basic details. But how we interpret those details determines our actions and reactions to those circumstances. The circumstances are neither good or bad, they are simply the facts of our situation.

Chances are good that you live in a structure with four walls, a floor and a roof. That structure has an exact location and a relative value. Inside that structure are an array of furnishings and belongings. Those are the facts. But how we interpret those facts determines so many things. Our structure may be a house, home, trailer, mansion or something else. It may be in a “good” part of town or “bad” part of town or it may not be in town at all. This structure may be “big” or “small” and may be worth a lot of money or not very much money. We may have a lot of possession or a little. Those possession may be worth a lot or a little. But regardless, we begin to interpret and assign personal value to everything.

Based on those interpretations we begin to act in certain way. If we feel that our circumstances are “poor” and everyone else always has better then we will make a decision not to do anything to change our circumstances because there is no hope, we’ll always have less. And if we feel we are “rich” and everyone else has less then we’ll be scared that we’ll lose what we have to others. However, if we can realize that we have what we have and that there are circumstances better than ours and circumstances worse than ours, then we can make a conscious decision and do something about it.

What I’m talking about is not being an optimist and saying the “glass is half full”. It’s not being a pessimist and saying the “glass is half-empty”. It’s not even about being a realist and saying “there is a glass with water in it”. We need to be opportunists and take action, we need to do something about our situation. At some point it is no longer about analyzing the situation but it’s about taking action and doing something about it.

So if you find yourself sitting on your couch thinking “I wish things were better” then it’s time to change your mindset. It’s time to make a decision to do something about it. Be an opportunist and take action, do something about it right now!
