The father of the 4% Rule emerges from his golf course retirement home to say he was wrong. For years, Wall Street has told us that the 4% rule for retirement income planning is gospel. Of course, we know that the 4% rule has not worked out too well in recent years. Now we hear from the creator and he admits his error but it's not what you think. Thanks to the death of private pensions, the devaluation of Social Security benefits and other undeniable retirement factors such as inflation and increased taxes, America is now in a retirement income crisis. Kraig Strom, the host of Personal Pension Radio, is focused on helping you pack your bags for both halves of the retirement journey.  Kraig's mission is help you build & protect your wealth and lifestyle today and generationally. Along the way, Kraig is ready to assist with all matters related to your financial wellbeing as well as your business and family legal needs.  Optimizing Retirement income and protecting your legacy does not happen with a product. You must have an integrated approach. DISCLOSURE:  KRAIG IS THE INCOME ENGINEER BUT HE IS NOT AN ATTORNEY OR A CPA. KRAIG STROM IS A CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER PROFESSIONAL AND A PARALEGAL.

PPR 257: WYS - Father Admits he Was Wrong

Welcome to the Personal Pension Radio Podcast, where it is all about planning correctly today so that you can sit back and reap the retirement lifestyle benefits later! 

Discover time tested strategies to help you lower your taxes, cut your expenses, and maximize your lifestyle today without sacrificing your retirement lifestyle or legacy tomorrow. Join us as we help you avoid the junk advice offered by unlicensed financial entertainers and the Wall Street marketing machine. We uncover financial strategies that empower you to break away from the herd. Success does not come from a product or a singular strategy. Savings, investing, tax planning, estate planning, insurance, goal setting, income engineering, and lifestyle design must all be considered from a macro perspective.

Wealth accumulation is an important component of a financial plan; however, the size of your 401k account, stock portfolio or defined benefit plan, the balance of your accounts can overshadow the most important - the income they can provide. As you plan for the sale of your business or retirement, the question you should ask is, "What will my income be and will I be able to preserve my lifestyle?"

You can retire or sell your business with your lifestyle intact. Don't settle for the inaccurate and incomplete advice of Financial Entertainers like Dave Ramsey, Suze Orman, or Jim Cramer. There is a better way!
