You Can't Have My Money!: We are living longer than ever, yet we are retiring earlier than ever. This newfound longevity is not being factored into our retirement planning. Many investments and retirement accounts are subject to heavy taxation which can be avoided. Accepted money-saving strategies, such as overpayment on your home mortgage, are actually costing you hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Our sequence of investment priorities needs to be reversed. A simple change of strategy can double your retirement savings while saving you from the sting of the taxman.
We don't all die from black lung at age 45 anymore, but a whole lot of us are treating our retirement plan like that's our best option. We accept whatever financial advice our local bank teller gives us, and we sign whatever they put in front of us. But what if there are alternatives that the banks don't want you to know about, because they might actually make more money for you than for the bank?
Even across different countries, there are similar strategies that can be followed to maximize investment growth and retirement savings for investors of any age, income, or education level. Whether you are living in the United States, Canada, or other nations with similar opportunities, you can use a parallel sequence to secure your financial future. Young or old, man or woman, country mouse or city mouse, there are financial pathways we all can tread together.
In this simple 6-step guide, Paxton S. Finnegan will join you to explore solutions and strategies which can grow investments, transform retirements, and keep the taxman at bay. With humor, common sense, tough love, and cowboy logic, he will show you that fear of retirement deserves to be left in the dust bin of history, along with alchemy and Polio.
Hunting Purple Elephants You have a good job, you work hard, and your family is depending on you. Yet every month your credit card balance grows while your savings dwindle. Why is it so dang hard to get our debts in check?
Probably because your credit card statement, weekly shopping routine, and even the phone in your hand are crammed full of Purple Elephants.
You think you need every one of them. You tell yourself they are essential. You are not willing to give them up, because each one of them adds a layer of superficial comfort to your life. But the truth is, Purple Elephants will spiral your debt out of control, and damage your retirement and family.
Unacceptable! For the next 7 weeks...
- You will lead an uncompromising expedition through your financial life.
- You will track for sign in your bank statement, credit card bill, mortgage, personal items, leisure time, and even your social media.
- You will learn to partner with your family and make them your most valuable allies, rather than a source of festering resentment.
- You will implement strategies to eliminate, reduce, consolidate, or restructure your debts.
- You will begin a new journey of savings and investments.
It's time to reevaluate what is "essential." It's time to cull the herd.
Gather the whole family together. It's time to hunt some Purple Elephants.
