Interest rates are incredibly low... Although I'm sure you already aware of this, the challenge financial advisors face is where to invest cash. Leaving cash in a bank seems like a good choice, it's safe, but that's not going to keep pace with inflation. Some estimates put inflation at 5%-6%, which means for every $100,000 earning 0% interest will lose $5,000-$6000 in purchasing power. This in not a good situation.
In this episode we will explore the the options to investing cash and what we see working. Not all accounts are created equally. Here are the types of account we will discuss and a few strategies working in todays low interest rate environment.
As always, if you want to see if these strategies work for you, feel free to reach out.

As a certified long-term care planning specialist, Terry gets to the basics with Alecia Barnett. We get calls for long-term care when someone in the family gets ill. Did you know that the newer policies allow you to leave any money you don't use to your beneficiaries? Also there is a company that allows you get a policy even if you have a chronic illness? Traditional long-term care was a use it or lose it proposition.
It's interesting that a lot of people thing Medicare will give you long term care.... That's simply not the case... Long-term care was designed to help you with the expenses of chronic illnesses. The days of use it or lose it are over, give us a quick listen and we'll explain all the details.

In this episode Terry Martine sits down with Rick Martens of Inland Capital and discuss what an opportunity zone is and how it is used for investors. According to the IRS, "A Qualified Opportunity Zone (QOZ) is an economically distressed community where new investments, under certain conditions, may be eligible for preferential tax treatment. Localities qualify as QOZs if they have been nominated for that designation by a state, the District of Columbia, or a U.S. territory and that nomination has been certified by the Secretary of the U.S. Treasury via his delegation of authority to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS)."
Isn't it interesting that the government knows that in order to revitalize an area, the easiest way is to give tax incentives? In a nutshell, the government is allowing accredited investors the opportunity to build/invest in one of these zones and get a substantial tax reduction.
This is one of the episodes where we take a deep dive into the topic. The best way to get the most out of this podcast is to listen all the way through the first time then grab a notebook and write down your questions for the second time through.

We talk with Rick Martens, Sr VP of Inland Capital to discuss answer a few questions. What is a 1031 exchange? Why do people use them and why are they becoming more popular? And finally we look at a few of the qualifications and why using a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) meets the needs of many investors. Here's a brief history of the 1031 exchanges.
A 1031 exchange allows real estate investors to defer tax liability on the sale of an investment property by using the sale’s proceeds to purchase a new property. The basic idea is that if the investor didn’t actually receive any proceeds from the sale (making sure to use a Qualified Intermediary (QI)), then there isn’t any income to tax.
The 1031 exchange can include like-kind property or it can include like-kind property along with cash, liabilities and property that are not like-kind. If you receive cash, relief from debt, or property that is not like-kind, however, you may trigger some taxable gain in the year of the exchange. There can be both deferred and recognized gain in the same transaction when a taxpayer exchanges for like-kind property of lesser value.
The taxes can be deferred indefinitely (exchange till you drop) as long as no monetary benefit is ever received from the sale of a property. For example, if you complete a 1031 exchange, hold that property for several years, and then sell it and buy another property, you can continue to use this method to avoid paying taxes. In other words, if you never "cash out," you can defer taxes forever.

We interview one the best estate planning Attorneys in West Palm Beach (Charlie Weiss). One word of caution, Charlie is in Florida, we specifically talk about Florida Estate Plans. If you are outside Florida, the concepts are the same but the documents might be slightly different. We answer the difference between a will and a Trust. Who needs a Trust or is it better to just have a will? Do you need a revocable living trust or an irrevocable living trust and the differences between the two. Who takes care of you if you become incapacitated, and what 5 documents you need today for a foundational Estate Plan. This interview was scheduled for 15 minutes, but we wanted to cover these important life documents in greater detail, so at the end we were sitting at 50 minutes. If you have questions about estate planning this is the podcast episode for you.
Please consult an attorney in your state for specific legal advice.
