FIRST EVENT - SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 2009, 8:30am – 5:00pm - TYSONS CORNER, VIENNA, VA:
Many people hope to improve their financial status by attending seminars, lectures, and workshops sponsored by financial planners, stockbrokers, bankers or insurance agents. Most often the attendees get sound advice but, unfortunately, are not getting the full story. They are not being told about ALL THE INVESTMENT POSSIBILITIES. Most often the information is presented in a leading manner that best fits the needs of the presenter or sponsoring company. Rarely are people told they can self-direct their own retirement plans, invest in real estate, and potentially gain better returns. Rarely are they told they can combine self-directed retirement plans and increase their buying power to purchase even more real estate and put their rental income back into their self-directed retirement plans tax deferred or better yet, TAX-FREE!! The challenge for investors is that financial planners, stockbrokers, bankers, and insurance agents get paid a commission or override by selling THEIR investments only. If you invest in what you know best – a duplex, commercial property or option – or make a loan for a real estate purchase, those professionals don’t earn commissions. This is why many investment professionals omit the fact that you can invest your retirement plan in real estate and some go so far as to say you cannot self-direct your retirement plan at all. Whether out of the advisor’s ignorance or self-interest, in the end, the investors are led astray.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN AT THIS EVENT:
• The concepts of retirement planning with emphasis on the benefits of the self-directed IRA as a vehicle that provides real estate investors the freedom to invest in what they want, instead of what their insurance company or stockbroker is offering.

• The difference between a custodian and a trustee, and the importance of properly choosing beneficiaries.
