We believe every family should have the opportunity to be financially secure…
- Now there's another interesting question . . . ADVANCE SLIDE . . .that we have to ask if more and more of us are going to be living longer and longer which is, how old is old? Think back to when you were a kid, how old did you think old was? Twenty-five? Thirty-two? It turns out that most of us walk around with a number in our minds, and the number is 65. Sixty-five, where did that age come from?
- First let’s talk about The Facts Of Life in the USA… We have several huge problems. Is there any question that Consumer Debt is out of control? I read somewhere that the average American family has 7 credit cards, with balances totaling over $10,000. Do you think that is the main reason why most people aren’t able to save any money? And, then there’s then recent loses in the stock market. How many of you lost money in the recent stock market decline? Are you even back to where you where 5 years ago? How many of you have moved some, or all, of your money into money market accounts, CDs or savings accounts? Are you happy with the low interest rates you are getting? How many of you are paying less in income taxes than you were 10 years ago? Do you see taxes going up with the problems we face with the social security system?

- So, How Do We Keep The Great American Dream Alive? It’s a whole new ballgame. We Need To Rethink The Old Traditional Ways We Managed Our Money and we need to Find Ways To Make All Of Our Money and Assets Work For Us…
- Reason #1: Mortgages don't lower home values. Your house will grow in value (or not) whether or not you have a mortgage. In fact, most people discover that, over time, their mortgage balance falls while their home value rises - creating substantial wealth they never expected. Reason #2: Your mortgage is the cheapest money you'll ever buy. Most people need to borrow money during their lives, so why pay 18% to credit cards when you can borrow at rates of 7% or even less? Reason #3: Your mortgage is the best way you can lower your taxes. Interest you pay on personal loans, auto loans and credit cards is not tax-deductible, but for most of us, interest you pay on mortgage loans is fully tax-deductible, making the cheapest loan you'll ever get, even cheaper. Imagine borrowing money for a net cost of less then 5%1 You can do it with a mortgage loan! Reason #4: Get the cash out of the house - while you still can. The main reason people turn to borrowing is because they have little or no income. But if you ever suffer a job loss, major medical or other financial crisis, you could find yourself unable to get a home loan. That's because lenders don't like to lend money if you are already in financial difficulty. That's why you should get a big mortgage now, before you need it - while you still can. Reason #5: Your mortgage becomes even cheaper over time. Depending on the loan you choose, your payment never rises - but your income likely will. That means todays mortgage payment becomes increasingly easy to pay over time. The rules of money have changed. And nowhere is that more true than with mortgages.

- So, what do you think is the single biggest change that's going to happen in our lives as a result of greater longevity?
- Historically, we've lived a linear life plan . Life was short. Biologic clocks were ticking away. And we tended to organize our lives in a relatively predictable fashion.
- First we learned. We did that once.
- Then we fell in love, got married, and it always lasted forever.
- We divided up the responsibilities --"Honey, you take care of the home. I'll go out and earn the money. Those were our jobs." Our kids always turned out perfect. And right before we died—
- We took a cruise. That ‘s what life was .
- But what if you knew you might live to be 90 or 100? Would you be in a hurry to get to be old just so you could be old for an extra 20 years? No one ever says that they can’t wait to have more longevity so that they can be “older” a really long time. What people say is they want to be young longer. They want to be middle-aged longer. The truth is, people don’t want to be any age at all. They just want to have the freedom to do all the things they want to do with their lives. I think the biggest change you’re going to see is the end of the linear life plan and the emergence of what I’ll call . . .
- . . . a cyclic life plan in which people go back to school two, three, four times in their lives. In which people who might find themselves widowed or divorced fall in love again. In which people retire and then get tired of it and start new lives, new careers. They reinvent themselves.
- Caregiving.” The average American today actually has more parents than children. Yet the average person in this country has given almost no thought to long-term care and financing it, which could break the bank.
- . . . “Emptynesting.” As life grows longer, many couples will find themselves spending more years together - after the kids have left the nest - than all the years they spent actively parenting. It’s often a time when most couples sit down and rethink both their lifestyle priorities and and possibly reshaping their financial plans.
- “ Singlehood.” We have 18 million singles over the age of 50. This next part might upset some of you.
- When we pass away, these new modern women go through a period of very deep grief and bereavement —
- . . . for about a year and a half. And then they get on with their lives.
- ADVANCE SLIDE “Grandparenthood.” How about grandparenthood? Are any of you grandparents? Presenter Notes The National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education reports that the number of high-income families borrowing for college has grown from 16% in 1990 to 45% in 2000.

- This gal sitting down in the blue dress is named Sarah Knauss. She’s 118 years old. Her daughter, Kitty, in the red dress is 95. Standing at the top is her grandson, Bob. He’s 73. He’s holding the great granddaughter, Kathy. She’s 49. The great-great granddaughter, Christina, is sitting on the floor. She’s 27. And the great-great-great grandson, Bradley, is 3. Six-generation families. Have you begun to contemplate how you would manage your wealth across two, three, four-generation families?
- “ Retirement” is certainly one of the big adult lifestages that is being reinvented. In fact, I believe we are witnessing the birth of a new era of retirement right now.
- Note that according to Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary, “retirement” officially means : “to disappear,” “to go away,” “to withdraw.” For a growing number of people, this is not what they’re hoping for with their extended longevity. What about you?
- Assuming you followed through, you’d need to put away $467 per month (if you were in a combined 30% tax bracket) This would be the after-tax cost of your mortgage payment at 8%. Let’s see the results…

- If you are a farmer and you had to go to the local feed store to buy some seed, to plant in your corn fields. And when you got to the counter to pay for the seed, the clerk ask you: Would you like to pay tax on the Seed now and get the harvest tax free or get the seed tax free and pay Tax on the harvest?
- I Rather Pay Tax on the seed and get the harvest tax free! But the is just the opposite of how Qualified or Regulated Retirement plans work! Regulated Retirements plan let you get a tax break on the fund your contributing, but when you retire here comes uncle Sam with a wheel barrel to collect his taxes!
