Greg Herlean has raised and brokered over $650 million in hard money loans
and real estate deals. He's the founder of Horizon Trust, a self-directed
IRA custodian, and in this clip he breaks down the tax-free retirement
strategy that only 5% of Americans use.
Brett walks through the Be Wealthy Calculator live and shows how $3,000
a month compounded tax-free turns into $7 million — and why paying $50,000
in tax today can save you over $1 million in retirement.
If you have an old 401(k) sitting somewhere, or a traditional IRA you've
been ignoring, this is the conversation that changes the math on your
entire retirement.
IN THIS CLIP

2:02 The $7 million math: $3K/month, 12% return, tax-free
3:30 Pay $50K in taxes today, save $1M+ in retirement
4:55 Running the numbers: $0 start, $1,500/month, different ages
6:15 Why a Roth is for absolutely everybody
