Does Your Money Work as Hard as You Do?

 I love working with entrepreneurs. I grew up in an entrepreneurial environment and decided to embrace our family legacy and become one again in 2015. 

 Entrepreneurs often influence many lives beyond their families and employees. The fingerprints of an entrepreneur can often be seen through generations.

 Entrepreneurs are some of the hardest working people I know. While they are busy running their businesses, they may not realize that their money may not be working as hard as they are.

 Part of our SCORE process is gaining clarity on the complete financial picture, including how our owners pay themselves.

 A strategy we’ve used successfully is what we like to call our Social Security SidecarTM.  By redirecting ownership distributions to fund a personally owned, guaranteed income account, it acts a little like Social Security. This strategy provides tax deferral as well as providing creditor protection in the state of Texas. In collaboration with our clients’ CPAs, we are able to provide a “family office lite” service model.

Curious?

Let’s talk.
