War On Wealth Series – Asset Growth
Even though an annuity is sold like securities by insurance companies, they are much different from insurance policies. The best way to explain annuities is to imagine a hybrid product that combines the advantages of long-term investments with the advantages of life insurance. With an insurance policy you typically pay monthly premiums, whereas an annuity generally has you making a lump sum payment upfront to guarantee a periodic payout immediately or starting at some future date that you choose.The exciting part is these payments continue as long as you live.
In case you are thinking you do not have a large lump sum there are some annuities that will allow you to deposit a modest upfront say $500 to $2500 and allow you to pay into it like you would your 401k or IRA.
The length of time people are living is getting longer and longer and this is creating financial planning nightmares for financial planners and their clients. Outliving savings has become a major source of distraction around the typical financial planning model. Investing in an annuity will allow you to save for retirement and ensure that your money lasts as long as you do.
Annuities generally fall into two categories, deferred and immediate-income. Read the rest of this entry

War On Wealth Series
This is the first in a series of writings designed to inform, educate, and instruct you how to win this battle that you have unsuspectingly been drawn into. Obtaining Financial Independence and becoming Wealthy is simply the process of continually increasing the gap between the amount of money that comes in and the amount that goes out. It’s the amount that goes out that devastates most of us. In case you haven’t noticed, you are right smack in the middle of a war zone. Over the last century a stew of born entitlement, government inefficiencies and waste, continuing financial illiteracy, and greed (corporate and consumer) has been brewing and simmering to the point where the lid bursting from the top was all but inevitable. Well, we are at the point. At no other time in our young history Read the rest of this entry

Annuity Pros(Advantages)
One of the largest benefits touted is that annuities offer you tax-deferred income, as annuity income is taxed only when you elect to receive it. So you can avoid taxes on annuities if you never want to use it, however that usually is not the objective. It is taxed evenly no matter when you put the money in if it is annuitized (“flip the switch” and start taking income from the annuity). If you take it out some other way i.e. IRS rule 72t, withdrawals etc. then… Read the rest of this entry

Not only is the average American unable to save money but there is a serious negative savings rate taking place that is piling up the debt owed in this country at a pace that is mind-boggling. These families are spending huge amounts of money to finance debt on the largest purchases such as, homes, major appliances and autos.
During a lifetime the interest paid on these purchases can add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Infact 34.5 cents of every dollar is being spent on interest to finance our american lifestyle through banks and finance companies.
It is possible to recapture the principle and interest that you’re paying to banks and finance companies, thereby putting that money away for the future. This can be done by creating your own private bank using cash value life insurance, which would enable you to take loans from this private bank. As you repay the principle and interest, it’s going back into your policy, where it is growing tax-deferred and can be taken tax free for your financial future.
