Wealth Building Programs

Hey Doctors! Thanks for the calls this weekend on my post about tax planning high income solutions for the medical professional. Asset protection for clinics, hospitals, and doctors is a very hot topic right now. Any tax planning needs to include a strategy for protecting your assets from those pocketbook preditors!

Review this video Podcast I did a few months ago about the tax planning techniques for doctors and dentists and double check your financial thinking!



Have a healthy and wealthy day!

P.S. If you're facing some tax challenges, cash flow issues, or need solid asset protection strategies give me a call! We have a number of powerful wealth building programs to help you in the process of building financial freedom.

Traditional retirement planners don’t always like what I have to say but that’s what I’m here for… to get people to think a little deeper, a little harder before they make financial decisions. For example, I don’t put a lot of stock in the stock market.  It’s tied to a win-lose relationship and a lot of retirement strategies are built around this model. But hey, if it’s working for you then go for it but there are better ways to plan for retirement with built in safety and security features that will let you sleep nicely at night.

Unfortunately 98% of people in America at age 65 are far from financially self sustaining, able to live out rest of lives with what they have in their retirement accounts. My goal, is to switch that number and have 98% of us in full control of our estates, legacies and our destiny. I referenced the 401 k article in Time magazine recently and I’m still thinking a lot about it. Here’s the problem.

It wasn’t until the last few years that people started seeing that giving blind faith to financial advisors was not the best ideas in the world. Even if they appeared to be wildly successful, you know like… Prisoner # 2523 aka – Bernie Madoff.

Tax Planning Techniques - First, Dump Your 401(k)?
If you’re contributing to your 401(k) and the company is also providing some significant benefit like “matching,” then maybe it’s okay. If not, then you might want to get with your CPA, tax attorney or other trusted advisor and take a hard look at your retirement plan. The problem is often unnoticeable until the day you actually retire. If the stock market happens to be in the toilet around the start of your retirement, you’re screwed. You can’t go back, you can speed it up, you take what you get when you take it.

Here are two things to do to protect yourself from this retirement nightmare so many people have been going through lately.

1.    Evaluate your 401(k) right now. Get a hard-nosed assessment of what it’s worth, where it’s invested, and where it is guaranteed to be at your ideal retirement date.

2.    The problem with the first tip is that there is usually little “guarantee” in the typical 401(k) plan. So, tip number two is this. Look into insurance-backed products that allow you to insure or guarantee the stability of that retirement asset. This requires working with a knowledgeable and trusted life insurance agent that understands your goals.

Life Insurance as an Investment Tool
At this point many people think, “Oh, those agents are just in this for the commission!” Well we all need to get paid but the smart agent is the one who recognizes that when she helps you set up your own banking system (like we teach in our Infinite Wealth System workshops) YOU will have an INSURED retirement plan and she will have a long-term income stream because she is helping you retire rich!

If you want to know how to select the right agent or would like a referral, feel free to give me a call or drop me a note! And… do your homework and review that 401 k right away!


Have a prosperous day!

P.S. Whether you are interest in tax planning courses, online investment classes, or planning your retirement, we have an individual wealth coaching program for you. There's no obligation to chat! Don't forget to sign up for our free wealth program - Wealth Principles Online.

Why doesn’t your CPA tell you about certain tax deductions? Maybe he's buried in paperwork. Maybe she would like to but doesn't want to take too many risks. Why don't CPAs tell you about those really unique tax deductions?

Some will some won’t! Most CPAs care about their clients and want to do a great job but the reality is, it’s your money and nobody is paying as close attention to your money as you are(or as close as you should be)! CPAs certainly will show you some tax deductions and make sure your tax returns are accurate. But they’ve got you and dozens or hundreds or thousands of other clients to think about at the same time.

The best way to get the most out of your CPA relationship is to be organized, detail oriented, and financially educated! I always say never count on any single financial advisor to know it all. At WealthClassesCoaching.com we believe it's important to create a wealth team.

And... you are the leader of that team. You are the one that needs to be challenging the thinking of your CPA. Ask why. Ask why not. Ask what if. Be careful here or you’ll spend a bunch of time getting an education from your CPA and a hefty bill at the end of the month. But put your CPA on the team. I believe “Teamwork makes the dream work!”

Help your CPA do a better job by learning everything you can about your money. It’s amazing how in just a couple hours a week how much you can learn and earn. Skip a few of those Seinfeld reruns or tonight’s episode of Dancing With the Stars and take our totally FREE home study course instead!

Challenge yourself to learn one new financial concept each week and in 52 weeks you have gained a ton of money making wealth building ideas!

Have a prosperous day!

Last Minute Tax Tips and a Free 8-Week Class to Boot!

The end of the year is closing fast and now is the time to get the tax deductions you deserve by knowing what information to share with your CPA. Here are a few year-end tax tips to consider right now.

Year-End Tax Solutions:
Read a few of these tax-saving, money making tips and I’ll give you a wonderful financial educational tool for absolutely free at the end of this post.

1.    If you might owe taxes…  review the list of potential deductions. Do you know what’s available? Diane Kennedy’s book, Tax Loopholes of the Rich has a great list.   Also, Jackson Hewitt Tax Service has a quick list of tax deductions for free that are often overlooked. Review these lists and look at where you spend money. Then bring this list to your CPA. I have a list of around 300 deductions that I use with my wealth coaching clients.

2.    Prepare for next year with a system… What is your wealth building strategy? What is your money management system? What is your process for building lifelong wealth? If you are shrugging your shoulders at these questions then you need a system. Our most popular workshop is called the Infinite Wealth System and it teaches you how to be your own banker, get paid like a banker and reduce risk like a banker. But first, you must start thinking like a banker. This workshop is quite powerful but don’t take my word for it, listen to some of the students.

3.    Create a Tax Advantaged Environment… What that means is that you should be doing everything legally available to maximize your tax advantages and minimize your tax liability. For example, There are four ways you can protect your income and your assets for a more joy filled retirement.

• Entity Structuring – set up an LLC, a C Corp, an S Corp or other legal business structure that will give you the greatest tax benefits and asset protection. You never want to hold real estate personally and LLCs are often great vehicles for protecting your investment and your family from legal hassles.

• Banking System – Utilize the proper life insurance products to establish a system of managing your cash flow and earning the interest on things you finance instead of paying interest to the bank or finance company.

• Self-Directed IRAs With Checkbook Control - A lot of peoples’ retirement accounts have taken a beating in the last year but there is a way to recover some and do better next year. Set up a checkbook controlled IRA and tie it into your banking system to maximize your earning power while reducing tax liability.

• Elite Family of Trusts – Trusts are powerful vehicles for creating long-term wealth and setting up a financial legacy.

4.    Tracking Software (Quicken, Quickbooks, etc.) There are many programs to choose from but the most important point I want to make is that if you don’t know where your money is going you won’t know where it went. Solid wealth building strategies require that you track your money well. If you’re not on a good financial management software program this is the ideal time to set it up so you can be ready for the new year and a fresh start.

Now… about that free gift. Sign up for our free eight week Wealth Building Secrets program that you can take from home. No cost, no obligation. Just 8 weeks of wealth building tips, money making ideas, tax saving strategies and new ways of thinking about wealth, money, and prosperity. There’s no obligation and you can start right now!

By the way, if you are facing some tax challenges, cash flow issues, or need a solid asset protection strategy, there is no charge to give me a call! We have a number of powerful wealth building programs to help you in the process of building financial freedom.

Any wealth building strategy should include a health building strategy. So here are a couple of wealth building tips based on health building tips.

Stress can take the health out of wealth real fast unless you learn how to manage it. Stress is linked to major diseases like cancer, heart failure, even arthritis! Now don’t go getting all stressed out over these nasty stats, there are some simple solutions you can do today to reduce your stress levels while you make your millions.

Stop pulling your hair out and read a little more. The best anti-aging program is a stress release program. And, since you're working so hard at creating your wealth building strategy I know you're going to want to be around a long time to spend all the money!

Here are three effective ways to lower your stress levels today!

Practice the 3-D’s!

The three D’s are: Do it, Dump it, or Delegate it. It’s not rocket science but it can be a lifesaver! Look at everything on your to-do list today with your 3-D glasses on!

• Do it – if you run across something that can be done in two minutes or less, just do it now and get it off your list. One less thing to stress about

• Dump it – Get brutal with the junk mail, email, and mindless tasks that waste time and energy. Get protective of your time and focus your energy to the most important tasks of your job or your personal life. Dump the stress that comes with doing things you really don’t want to or need to be doing.

• Delegate it- Leverage your time by letting others do what you’re not good at or committed to. Ask for help, develop support systems, but don’t do it alone! Share the love, the work, and the stress! If it's not an activity that is creating you money then you should't be doing it.

Have a prosperous day!

To continue a few more ideas from our Monday night’s Connector Coaching call, here are a few more thoughts on the best legal entities to consider. There’s a lot more to know about the tax advantages and asset protection features of each of these but this will give you an overview of the pros and cons of each legal entity (Check out yesterday's post for more).

Limited Partnerships – In this legal structure the partners cannot be actively involved in the management of the business. It’s important to be realistic with this. If you’re the kind of person that has to have your voice heard and you can’t avoid getting involved, this structure is not for you. Limited means limited.

If you do get involved you can lose your status as a limited partner and that opens a whole different set of issues and defeats the original intent. All income coming into limited partnerships flows through to the members, the partnership does not pay taxes.

Family limited partnerships where members are family members have some unique tax advantages.  Family limited partnerships can be used to pass tangible assets that wouldn’t normally be found in a business such as jewelry, art, heirlooms, etc. to the next generation. In limited partnerships it’s a good idea to have separate CPAs, bookkeepers and administrative functions. Downside – these can be tough to sell and costly to set up.

S Corps or Subchapter S – This is a standard corporation that has elected a special tax status with the IRS. The basic information requirements are the same as a C corporation wherein formation documents must be filed with the state agencies and necessary filing fees paid, of course. The S corp is different from the C corp in that it does not suffer double taxation like the C corp. With an S corp the profits and losses pass through to the shareholders and must be reported on their individual tax returns.

S corps also have unlimited life extending beyond the illness or the death of its owners. Stock can be sold, business expenses may still be deductible, and ownership is relatively easy to transfer. Downside – The number of owners must be fewer than 100, they cannot be non-resident aliens and all income tax obligations flow through to the individual owners.

This is just some of the material we covered in my last coaching call. Learn how you can participate in an ongoing wealth building program. Connector Coaching Program 

Limited Liability Companies or LLCs.  An LLC is a cross between a limited partnership and a corporation. You can have more than one owner. You file a 1055 tax form to do your return. From asset protection standpoint an LLC has many tax benefits. With single member LLCs you can add an S election that allows you to run it as an S corporation to get some additional advantages. An LLC limits your legal liability. Like a C corp you are only personally responsible when there is gross negligence or fraud involved. So, don’t do anything stupid and your LLC will protect you and your assets just fine!

You can have as many members as you want and you can have foreign investors. This is great when you are trying to come up with additional capital and you need flexibility in how you have structured the business. Income and losses flow to members so there is no double taxation. Great for holding real estate.

You don’t have to have formal meeting minutes like a C corporation. An LLC may protect assets better than any other structure. If you do get sued, you usually cannot lose stock to new members taking over because the current members decide who gets stock. If creditors put a lien on your interest in an effort to get paid, they may be liable for a tax on that debt. Bad for creditors, good for the LLC.

Rules vary by state so check your local laws although most states allow LLCs. Downside – Some states require LLCs to terminate at 30 years or at the death of a member but there are ways around that when structured properly.

Corporations  or C corps. A lot of accountants underestimate the tax advantages of C corporations. One big advantage of a C corp is you can control the income and you can pick the fiscal year end. Most other entities are based on the calendar. If you have a huge income influx, you can make adjustments to offset tax liabilities. You can also do what is called upstreaming income – legally shift income from your LLC to your C corp. The C corp is great to use as a financial planning tool.

Bottom line - You have time with c corps, lots of deductions and you can take advantage of many fringe benefits with minimal restrictions. The downside- lots of paperwork and double tax. You are going to be taxed on the income you draw and on the income created by the corporation.

C corp requires planning but if you are expecting higher income a C corp could be good. Use an attorney to set this up.  Again, these are just general and condensed points to consider when setting up your new business or looking for legal and safe ways to building financial freedom. Always use professional financial, legal, and tax advisors.

Andddddd... just as importantly, learn for yourself how to take charge of your wealth building strategy.

We had a great call last night with my students who are working to discover new ways to grow and protect their wealth. Each Monday night during our Connector Coaching Program give specific wealth building ideas and actions to help build lifelong wealth.
Here are some of the points I shared last night about setting up the right type of entity structure to protect yourself and your assets.

Having the right legal entity structure does two very important things. 

1.  Tax Advantages - When set up properly the proper legal entity gives you significant tax advantages. This is what I mean when I talk about creating a tax-advantaged environment.

2. Asset protection – This is so important into today’s litigious society. When you have assets that everyone knows about, you are inviting others to come and get them! It is your legal right to protect what you have worked so hard to earn!

Here are some of the highlights from last night’s Connector call. Key points to remember:

1. The right entity structures separate you from your business. This keeps you and your assets apart so that if one or the other has any legal challenge, your entire financial system is not at risk.

2. Sole Proprietorships are great for startups because they are low cost, simple and still have some tax benefits. There are lots of tax deductions available to this entity. This might be a good structure for a very small business where a person is a freelance writer or a network marketing rep where there is really very little risk. Downside is – very risky if you get sued. Tip - Once you start to make over 60k or so find a more protective entity and have an attorney set it up properly. Another downside to this entity is that there are over 90 million lawsuits filed in the U.S. each year and sole proprietorships are quite vulnerable.

3. The Secretary of State in each state is where you can go to begin your business name search. This is just a starting point. Business names need to be registered in the state where they reside but you will also need to begin the trademark and registration process. Just because a business name is available on a local level doesn’t mean a larger corporation hasn’t registered the name nationally. Use an attorney on this.

4. LegalZoom.com and other similar services may be useful for legal documents when you have enough experience to know what to look for. For example: If you need an operating agreement for a new LLC you are setting up and you've done it before, LegalZoom might provide a starting point as a template to save you some time and money. But, be careful. Complicated entities require quality legal advice.

5. Real Estate – Never, ever put it in your own personal name. Always use an LLC or another entity but having real property in one’s name invites trouble. There is a lot of exposure in the real estate world so don’t risk it. No sole proprietorships in real estate.

6. General Partnerships – These are a little like sole proprietorships but require two or more partners. There are some benefits when you are fortunate enough to find a partner who is equally committed and capable of doing his/her share of the work (although that’s rare to find the perfect balance). Great for small business with clearly defined and divided responsibilities.

General partnerships can be easier to raise capital or get loans for a start up. Each partner files their own tax returns and all income and losses flow through to the individual partners. Downside – Some states require termination of the partnership when death, retirement, withdrawal, or resignation occurs.

There are ways around that but that’s fairly typical. More complicated than a sole proprietorship but there’s no double taxation that can occur in a c-corp. Exposure is high as all partners are responsible for the actions of the other partners. You better know your partner real well!

Tomorrow, I’ll get into additional entities such as LLCs, PLLCs, S - corps C – corps and more. If you want to join our weekly wealth building coaching program to learn how to grow and protect your financial future, drop me a note, give me a call, or visit my site for more info. Of course, all that said, the information I provide here is for educational purposes only so always get appropriate legal and accounting advice from professionals you trust.

2. Sole Proprietorships are great for startups because they are low cost, simple and still have some tax benefits. There are lots of tax deductions available to this entity. This might be a good structure for a very small business where a person is a freelance writer or a network marketing rep where there is really very little risk. Downside is – very risky if you get sued. Tip - Once you start to make over 60k or so find a more protective entity and have an attorney set it up properly. Another downside to this entity is that there are over 90 million lawsuits filed in the U.S. each year and sole proprietorships are quite vulnerable.

3. The Secretary of State in each state is where you can go to begin your business name search. This is just a starting point. Business names need to be registered in the state where they reside but you will also need to begin the trademark and registration process. Just because a business name is available on a local level doesn’t mean a larger corporation hasn’t registered the name nationally. Use an attorney on this.

4. LegalZoom.com and other similar services may be useful for legal documents when you have enough experience to know what to look for. For example: If you need an operating agreement for a new LLC you are setting up and you've done it before, LegalZoom might provide a starting point as a template to save you some time and money. But, be careful. Complicated entities require quality legal advice.

5. Real Estate – Never, ever put it in your own personal name. Always use an LLC or another entity but having real property in one’s name invites trouble. There is a lot of exposure in the real estate world so don’t risk it. No sole proprietorships in real estate.

6. General Partnerships – These are a little like sole proprietorships but require two or more partners. There are some benefits when you are fortunate enough to find a partner who is equally committed and capable of doing his/her share of the work (although that’s rare to find the perfect balance). Great for small business with clearly defined and divided responsibilities.

General partnerships can be easier to raise capital or get loans for a start up. Each partner files their own tax returns and all income and losses flow through to the individual partners. Downside – Some states require termination of the partnership when death, retirement, withdrawal, or resignation occurs.

There are ways around that but that’s fairly typical. More complicated than a sole proprietorship but there’s no double taxation that can occur in a c-corp. Exposure is high as all partners are responsible for the actions of the other partners. You better know your partner real well!

Tomorrow, I’ll get into additional entities such as LLCs, PLLCs, S - corps C – corps and more. If you want to join our weekly wealth building coaching program to learn how to grow and protect your financial future, drop me a note, give me a call, or visit my site for more info. Of course, all that said, the information I provide here is for educational purposes only so always get appropriate legal and accounting advice from professionals you trust.

Have a prosperous day!

By the way, if you are facing some tax challenges, cash flow issues, or need a solid asset protection strategy, there is no charge to give me a call! We have a number of powerful wealth building programs to help you in the process of building financial freedom.

The Infinite Banking System puts you in total control of your wealth. When it’s all set up and running properly, you decide what money comes in and what money goes out. You set the interest rates and terms you want to pay to borrow money, just like a banker does. You decide how much interest you will charge others when you lend money and of course, the terms under which they will pay you back.

If your plan for retirement has been modified by our economic situation, maybe it's time to learn how to create a recession-proof wealth building strategy.

Plan for Retirement - Systematically
Again, there is no reason to compromise your lifestyle. We understand that it has been hammered into you since you started working that you must be saving for and planning for retirement. Of course, we all want to enjoy a retirement free of financial stress but why wait for retirement? This is the time to start building lifelong wealth.

To create truly massive wealth, there are four major systems you will eventually want to master. Here they are.

1.    The Financing System. This is the core of wealth creation but it does not stand alone. The Financing System is how you currently use your credit cards, loans, and leases. This is how you manage all of the money coming in and going out. It is the process of transferring funds, documenting transactions, forecasting the future, and monitoring changes.

This is the system, the technology, and awareness of the flow of funds through your life. The Infinite Banking System is a key element of the financing system that we teach in our wealth classes.

2.    The Debt Management System. This is the math, the timing, and the best use of your funds to reduce, minimize, and eliminate debt in the most sensible, manageable and realistic manner. A solid debt reduction process must be a part of any wealth building program. Of course, in our wealth training we don't want you to wait for anything. Eliminating debt and building wealth both begin immediately.

3.    The Tax Management System – This is the process of leveraging your knowledge of legal tax benefits into the lowest tax category possible. A properly structured tax management system allows the power of compounding interest to work for you. There is no lifestyle change required to maximize your tax benefits. Saving tax money is not an event it's a journey.

4.    Investing System – This is an optional yet complimentary system to the first three systems. Investing does not have to be risky or require too much work when you know where to start and what to avoid. Many people invest in traditional ways such as stocks, trading, real estate, etc.

When a systematic system of investing is combined with a systematic financing system, the synergistic results can improve your wealth creation momentum dramatically. There are tons of online investment classes and dozens of magazines that offer great advice on how to make money yet few of them provide a system that you can set up to run on autopilot.

How many people do you know that have “Investments” that they talk about yet they still never seem to have enough month left at the end of their paycheck? If you have invested in real estate, the stock market or any asset with an opportunity to appreciate then you are on the right track. What we teach you is that by combining any of the four major systems above, your wealth grows exponentially.

Savvy Investors Still need Systems
If you already have your own successful approach to investing, that’s great. Adding just one more thing, that you are about to learn to your investment system will greatly enhance your returns. If you have income coming in from your job, rental properties, investments, or other sources, we want that revenue to flow through your debt management system and into your financing system. We believe in the synergy of the systems. They work best when they are working together.

Top Financial Advisors
If you already work with a top financial advisor or manage your investments on your own, it doesn't matter to the team at Wealth Classes Coaching. Our goal is to help you eliminate distractions, delays, and excuses that keep you from creating massive wealth by automating as many of these systems as possible.

If you have to keep changing your approach, creating new tactics and re-inventing your strategies, then you don’t have a system. And if you don’t have a system, you don’t have control. And if you don’t have control, well, then somebody else does.

And there is only one person on the entire planet that cares as much about your financial well being as you do and that is… YOU!

Have a prosperous day!

P.S. If you're working with a financial advisor at Merrill Lynch, JPMorgan, Smith Barney, or any other big name firm, good for you. We don't replace your financial advisors we simply teach you how to leverage your knowledge and relationships to build great wealth in efficient, safe, and sensible ways.

Earlier this year I posted blog about a few of the financial principles that I thought were so important. After seeing the chaos in the public meetings about our health care system and the politics of that whole process, it reminded me that all of us need to do a better job of taking care of ourselves with diet, nutrition, and exercise so we can minimize time in the health care system, andddddddddddddd…

Building Financial Wealth/Health
We need to do the same thing with our financial well being. We can talk about planning for retirement, tax strategies, passive income tactics and the like but most wealth creation begins in that gray matter between your ears. So here's a quick review.

Give yourself a wealth building checkup on these three critical wealth-health principles to see how you are doing.

1. Financial Attitude: Our Financial Attitude is that wealth building is a mindset – Make the decision right now to be wealthy. Then build your education, your self-talk, your team, and your financial systems around you to support that decision. All of us are looking for those killer making extra money ideas but they are all meaningless without the right financial attitude.

2. Financial Aptitude: Your earning power is in direct proportion to your learning power. And… the speed and ease at which you learn, your Financial Aptitude, is in direct proportion to your financial attitude.

Surround yourself with people of ability, knowledge, and integrity to learn from and grow with. No one gets wealthy alone. You don’t have time to make all the mistakes by yourself. Learn from others.

Whether you are developing a plan for retirement, trying to figure out how tax savings will effect your lifestyle, or just searching for more of those wealth building tips, start hanging out with people that are doing it not just talking about it.

3. Financial Gratitude: Financial greatness comes with financial gratefulness. Embracing Financial Gratitude means you appreciate what you have, what you earn, and that you are willing to give back by helping those who have helped you and those who just need help. Wealth Classes is always offering wealth building programs, many at no charge.

Have a prosperous day.

My friend Lance Hood is putting together a large group of authors, speakers, and experts on everything related to creating wealth for a FREE online teleclass series. He asked me to produce a quick video overview of what I will be speaking on. After I finished the video for his promotional purposes I took the same wealth building ideas I talked about in that video and put them into this Podcast.

There are seven tax-saving, money making ideas in this Podcast and you'll even find ways to put your little ones on the payroll. In 2009 you can pay your children $5,700. That's one way to shift some income and lower your tax liability. Of course, I'm speaking in general terms so always check with your tax professional regarding your unique situation.




With 65% of you money flying out of your pocket in taxes and interest you need to learn to use dividend paying life insurance policies to create a tax advantaged environment. If you want to begin building lifelong wealth two of the most powerful tools to do so are real estate and specific types of insurance policies. The cash surrender value in the right type of policy is fundamental to the structure of the banking system that we teach our clients to set up. Check out this Podcast to hear seven wealth building ideas so you can start creating your own wealth building program.

Flip on CNN and there’s good news about the economy then bad news about the economy. Creating wealth doesn’t depend on good news or bad news. It DOES depend on good thinking and bad thinking. Good thinking- “Hey, there’s a recession going on, I’m going see this as ‘recess’ and make the best of it!” Bad thinking- “Gee, I lost a ton of money in the market. I’m going to fire my broker/financial advisor/tax planner and do nothing at all.” 

Let’s all Calm Down
When the universe hands you a bucket of lemons go make some lemonade right?  Listen to this Podcast I just did because you will learn something about getting control of your finances, REGARDLESS of how bad or good your situation might be right now. Now it’s time to Turn Your Burn into an EARN! That’s the clever title of today’s Podcast.

TURN YOUR BURN INTO AN EARN!




If we give in to the group think and allow the negativity of the media to control our minds, we’re sunk. A better way to view this economy is to take control of what we DO have. There is no benefit in placing blame on anyone or anything at this point.

It’s Time to get Moving.
This is the time to create a Tax Advantaged Environment. You will ultimately find financial freedom in that environment when you incorporate these four components into your wealth building strategy.

• Entity Structuring
• Checkbook Controlled IRAs
• The Banking System
• Elite Family of Trusts

Now is the time to reorganize your financial life so you keep what you have while you create a long-term financial plan to make more. This is not the time to get paranoid, freeze everything and pull into your shell. That’s financial suicide. Yes, it’s time to be very smart, careful, and methodical but it is not time for prosperity paralysis!

Have a prosperous day!

We all make Mistakes, but...
The difference is, Phillip Brothers, President & CEO of Pacific West Vending, LLC and AdzSpin, LLC Learned from them. In fact, he learned so much he became a millionaire in the process.

How many mistakes do you make over and over and over? If it’s over and over and over, they don’t sound like mistakes, they sound like torture!

During a recent wealth coaching call I did in our weekly Connector Program, I interviewed the millionaire Phillip Brothers about his success in business and what it takes to achieve financial freedom.

Make Millions of Dollars or Millions of Mistakes
Here are the Top Five Mistakes Phillip made and learned from to achieve success. Put yourself in Phillip’s shoes. Whether you are starting a business, investing in real estate, or just trying to be a better money manager in your family, making mistakes in the process of building lifelong wealth is a good thing…

Phillip’s Top Five Mistakes That Helped Make Him a Millionaire

5. Going Solo  -  In the past, I tried to do everything on my own. Doesn’t work that well! Now I recognize the power of the team. Creating wealth and opportunity is always better (and more fun) with a team.

4. Raising Money – In the past, I failed to raise enough money and in my enthusiasm got a little too far down the road and ran short on cash. Today, my rule is raise twice as much money as you think you need!

3. The Smartest Guy on the Team is me – Not so smart. Always find people that are smarter then you. Find people to fill in your gaps, your weaknesses. And if you choose the wrong people, do both of you a favor and let them go. The business won’t achieve its potential without the right people.

2. Shotgun Weddings – Just like getting married, a business is a long-term commitment. The shotgun approach to business seldom works out well. Do the planning before you start. The more detailed the better. That detailed road map will come in handy when you find yourself in the blur of business growth and/or chaos and you’re not sure which way to go. Your plan is your compass. Don’t leave home without it.

1. Forgot to sell Something – Never ever forget that nothing happens until a sale is made. It doesn’t matter what your business is, you must be selling all the time. Get caught up in the wrong things and forget you have a responsibility to generate new business and you’re history. Don’t leave  the big job of selling up to someone else when you launch your business.  Put Pain on the Brain - Here's one more mistake that's so easy to make.  Make sure your product is solving a true pain point for your customer. If you can’t identify the pain point, you can’t sell your product. Take care of the pain and you take care of your customer.

That was a great call and thank you Phillip Brothers for joining us!

What if you were the banker? What if you could recapture some of that interest going out to the window and put it in your pocket instead of the banks? “Recapturing”  is a critical part of designing your own banking system. We'll teach you more on that in future posts. We don't suggest you attempt to set up an actual bank, we only suggest that you start to think, act, and profit like a banker.

To begin building lifelong wealth you must watch financial education videos, study financial education tools, take online investment classes, attend wealth building workshops and yes, again, begin to think, act, and profit like a banker!

Banking Facts You can Profit From
Let's start with some facts about bankers. Review these, think about your retirement plans or investment strategies and apply the following rules to your own financial situation.

   1. Successful bankers don’t risk their money
   2. Successful bankers don’t break the rules
   3. Successful bankers don’t invest
   4. Successful bankers maintain control
   5. Successful bankers profit from cash flow
   6. Successful bankers are the last ones in and the first ones out
   7. Successful bankers maintain control
   8. Did we mention successful bankers maintain control?

Ask yourself, who is controlling your money? Who is building your financial freedom? Your CPA? Your financial planner? Your investment broker? Face the facts. Nobody cares about your money as much as you do.

Wealth Classes has been teaching banking concepts for years because it is the single most important body of knowledge you need to build total financial freedom.

Free Wealth Building Classes
We offer free classes on a regular basis and we have one-on-one wealth coaching programs for every budget large or small. Why not begin setting up your own wealth building programs today?

In this Podcast we talk about Tax Advantaged Environments and the four keys to creating them. The four keys are:

Our team consists of accredited investors, certified master coaches, certified credentialed professionals such as CPA's, attorneys, and other GET-IT-DONE team members.
