Book Description
How confident are you for your retirement? If you're like the majority of Americans, you are likely trying to navigate the unsettled waters of our nation's retirement and economic climate. Most people aren't aware of what is really driving their retirement savings and have little or no control over where their future is invested.Taxes, education and healthcare costs continue to rise and the volatility of the stock market adds an additional layer of uncertainty. This book is devoted to explaining the underutilized concept of investing self-directed IRAs into alternative assets. Self-directed IRAs allow you to have direct control over your retirement by investing into more than traditional investment options such as stocks and mutual funds, and instead investing in areas where you have knowledge, expertise and comfort. Eleven different investment options such as real estate, precious metals, notes, private equity, tax liens and beyond are covered in this innovative book. You will learn the important rules and regulations you need to know, financing options, due diligence and risk assessment and real life examples of investors who have decided to take control of their financial future and self-direct their way to lasting wealth. We'll also share over 30 case studies of real client investments and will shine a light on the unheralded impact self-directed IRA investors have made on their communities, small businesses, the housing recovery and of course, their own financial future.As an added bonus there are over 40 educational videos, reports, calculators and other resources that coincide with the book!Self-Directed IRAs: Building Retirement Wealth Through Alternative Investing showcases diversification strategies that will change the way you think about retirement investing and could change the course of your retirement forever.
