Harsh Reality of Real Estate Investing Today

[Originally Published at JeffNabers.com]

You may be wondering why I haven’t blogged about real estate investing in a while. There’s a very good explanation video at Nabers.TV for you to check out.

Solo 401k in Wall Street Journal Again

Solo 401k was thrust in the spotlight again last week because of its powerful ability to reduce your self-employment income through large tax-deductible contributions.

Unfortunately, the writer of that WSJ article is mildly financially retarded. Take a look for yourself. Read the article to hear about the powerful tax benefits (albeit presented in a fantasy situation), and then read the comments to have some real people bring the concept back to reality.

How To Get Help

Positive Change

Cliff notes version:

  • I will be offering free one-on-one phone consulting to qualified people
  • In order to make room for that, I will no longer be offering free consulting in the form of blog comment responses

Here’s the skinny >>>

I’m making some changes to how I focus my energy and how I am able to help you with your wealth preservation and wealth building, both inside a Self-Directed IRA LLC or Solo 401(k) and outside of retirement funds.

Here’s what these changes will do for you:

  • If you are aimed down a path that is likely to succeed, we may get a chance to work together more intimately
  • If you are aimed down a path that is likely to destroy your wealth and frustrate you, you won’t get my help

Let me explain…

The #1 biggest factor making an impact your wealth right now is inflation.

Some people are trying to “beat” inflation by taking bigger risks to hopefully get bigger returns that will be bigger than inflation.

For 95% of my readers, that won’t work. It won’t work because bigger risks increase the gains and the losses, and over the long term most people will have worse performance as a result of taking bigger risks.

Around 5% of my readers have maybe figured out how to get bigger returns by spending more energy on some sort of system or process that yields larger returns. Moving forward, I don’t think that will continue working either.

Why won’t aggressive investment strategies work in the future?

Well… they will work and they won’t work. They will work in terms of turning your dollars into more dollars. They won’t work in terms or actual value adjusted for inflation.

This is because there is no limit to [Read more...]

What does the Health Care Bill have to do with 401k Accounts?

…a lot really.

Some might say the health care bill is a distraction from what’s next. Peeling back the layers of the politicians’ never-ending string of nationalizations reveals that they may just be ramping up.

Believe it or not, the self-trustee Solo 401k may hold the key to empowering freedom-loving Americans to finally defeat government takeover of private industries.

Enjoy the video, as it contains a valuable game plan.

Weak economy strengthens the incentive for a Solo 401k

This is quite a simple concept so this post will be very brief.

  • Our weak economy has brought very high inflation: as high as 13% over the past year.
  • Future dollars are worth much less than dollars today.
  • With a Solo 401k you can make tax-deductible contributions to your retirement plan in today’s dollars and pay taxes later in less valuable dollars.
  • Successful entrepreneurs and self employed individuals can contribute $49,000 per year or more to their Solo 401k in 2009.

I am thankful for…

thanksgiving_prayer

…our current circumstances. Rather than ignore the current economic problems, I choose to acknowledge this elephant in the living room during our Thanksgiving holiday.

We are bombarded with headlines like “What will fix our economic problems?” It is absolutely silly. The recession is the solution to the problem of the asinine acts of American government, corporations, and consumers. There is no galactic lottery that our country can win. We have to play by the rules of the game that we started. No person or government can perpetually spend more money than they earn. Such behavior can only be temporary and always leads to self inflicted unpleasantness.

I truly am thankful for our recession because it should help cleanse our government and society of self destructive behavior. We are now forced to [Read more...]
