Brad Williams - Divorce and Credit

Brad has over 25 years of addressing the financial concerns of retirees and business owners.  Add his strong communication skills and Brad, after first listening to his clients’ needs and concerns, is able to simplify and explain in everyday language even the most complex concepts and alternatives. He treasures the trust his clients place in him and safeguards it by his words and actions.  His reputation for unquestioned integrity is far more important to him than any fee or commission.  For these reasons and more, Brad often forms a close personal relationship with his clients.

While he can be described as a personable and caring person with a passion for his work, Brad’s most accurate characterization might be “the consummate professional.” His singular goal is to treat his clients “as if they were my own parents” and help them build a sound foundation for their financial house.  By any measure, some say, he is an advisor worth standing in line to do business with. 

Build Credit In Case of A Divorce

Divorce can be hard on your personal finances, particularly if you haven't established credit in your own name.

If you have no credit, or a thin credit file, getting credit when you need it, perhaps to rent a car, buy an airline ticket or shop online, could be challenging.

This happens more often to older women who weren't the primary income earners in their household while they were married, says Ronit Rogoszinski, a wealth adviser at Arch FinancialGroup in New York's Long Island.

"A lot of women just never got the Visa or MasterCard or American Express,"Rogoszinski says.

Separate while married

The best way to fix the problem is to avoid it by establishing separate credit while your marriage is still happy, says Rod Griffin, director of public education at the credit bureau Experian.

"Ideally, you maintain an individual account or 2 in your own name in the event that something unexpected happens," Griffin says.

That could be a divorce or some other financial calamity.

A small purchase every few months typically is enough to keep an account open and active.

In some states, new separate credit isn't an option for married couples because state law automatically deems new credit accounts established during the marriage to be jointly held. You'll have to check to see if that's the case in your state.

Splitting up

Another approach is to establish separate credit during the divorce, using the primary wage-earner's income and credit history to qualify, says Lili Vasileff, founder of Divorce and Money Matters, a divorce financial planning firm in Greenwich,Connecticut.

The 1st step is to obtain your own credit report. This report can help you find out:

·      Credit that's open in your name.

·      Debts you don't know about(if any).

·      Credit reporting errors that can be corrected.

It's also a good idea to find what points, airline miles and other perks are associated with various accounts. Vasileff says these are marital assets and can be subject to negotiation during the divorce.

The next step is to open a major credit card in your own name "as if everything is normal," Vasileff says. Then get a car loan, open a bank account, sign a rental agreement or take other actions to establish separate personal finances.

"These little,small steps are very key," Vasileff says. "Because then, by the time you're divorced, you're up and running and have things you can point to."

Some couples split up their credit accounts before they untie the knot.

This separation can be easier if your accounts have small balances and payments have been made on time, Griffin says. In those cases, creditors might be more willing to work with you to remove 1 spouse from an account.

Don't expect creditors to honor your agreements with your soon-to-be ex, however.

"A divorced ecree doesn't change the contract you have with the lender," Griffin says.

Over and onward

The other option is to establish your own credit after the divorce is finalized.

"In that situation, you're faced with the same kinds of challenges as anyone who is establishing credit for the first time," Griffin says.

You might need to start out with a joint account that you open with a co-signer or a secured credit card that requires a deposit.

A credit union or regional bank might be more willing to open a credit account for someone without much credit history, Rogoszinski suggests.

"I don't believe anything is hopeless," she says. "If the 1st bank turns you down or the 1st store doesn't offer credit to you, try another one."

One challenge for people who are recently divorced can be a lack of income to qualify for credit.

"The only income these individuals have to show is spousal support," Vasileff says."Spousal support generally (can't be used to qualify for) at least 6 to 12months, so these people are sort of out of luck for a gap in time,post-divorce."

If you rent your home, you can ask your landlord to report your positive payments to a credit bureau. That can help you establish credit as well, Griffin says.

It can take several months or longer to establish enough credit to generate a credit score. It's generally easier to start from 0 than to repair credit that has been trashed.

Take care

Once you've established credit, do whatever you can to nurture, build and protect it.

"Manage that credit card like it's gold," Rogoszinski says."Don't take on balances you can't pay because the interest alone could spiral you into a pit you don't want to be in. When you get the bill, review every entry (looking for) identity theft and fraud. Keep your receipts and make sure the receipts match the statement. And always, always, always, always make the payment on time."

Mike Burleigh - Don’t Count on Inheritances to Save Your Retirement

Expecting mom and dad to help fund your retirement by leaving you an inheritance? Don’t count on it.

That’s one of the messages behind a new survey by HSBC Holdings PLC, the London-based parent of HSBC Bank USA.

According to the survey, 23% of pre-retirees would ideally like to spend all of their savings and let their children fend for themselves. In contrast, a mere 9% say they want to save “as much money as possible to pass on to the next generation.”

What’s behind the 14-point gap between those who want to spend it all and those who want to give as much as possible to younger generations? Several things. Many worry that by giving money to their children they will “take away the drive of the next generation to succeed,” says Brian Schwartz, an HSBC wealth adviser. Still, others anticipate that due to improvements in longevity, they may spend much of their savings along the way.

For many, though, the “spend it all” mentality doesn’t necessarily equate to a desire to spend it all on themselves. Mr. Schwartz says many people in or approaching retirement are interested in or practicing a “new approach” to estate planning that emphasizes giving away some money to the next generation while they are still alive. For some, the appeal is that they will get to see their children and grandchildren enjoy and benefit from their largesse. For others, it’s a way of testing the impact an inheritance will have on their progeny — in order to make adjustments if necessary. Still, others want to give their money away while alive for tax reasons.

“There is already talk in Washington about reducing the estate tax exemption to the levels that were in effect in 2009,” says Mr. Schwartz. Currently, individuals can transfer $5.43 million tax-free at death. A return to 2009’s level would mean the limit would revert to $3.5 million. “People recognize that estate taxes may go up” in the future, making it more palatable to give assets away now, he says.

The survey of 1000 Americans — 21% of them retirees — was part of a global survey of 16,000 people in 15 countries.

While the new approach to inheritance makes a certain amount of sense, it nonetheless comes with risks. In particular, giving away money before death now can leave you at greater risk for not having enough in later life.

The best plan, financial advisers say, is for families to talk — if only to establish realistic expectations.

Not surprisingly, many families are loath to discuss these issues. Adult children, in particular, aren’t eager to ask their parents about inheritances for fear of coming across as greedy.

Still, the survey indicates that working Americans have high hopes for inheritances — perhaps too high, according to Mr. Schwartz. According to the survey, almost half expect to receive an inheritance. Among them, nearly 20% are banking on an inheritance to completely or largely fund their retirements, while half say they expect to receive enough to provide them with some support in their later years.

While some may have good reason for their expectations, many others are likely to find that they won’t be getting nearly as much as they had hoped, says Mr. Schwartz.

In an era of low interest rates, volatile financial markets, expanding longevity, and rising costs for health and long-term care, parents may find that they need every penny for themselves. Indeed, thanks to medical gains, a 65-year-old man has a 60% chance of living to age 80 and a 40% chance of reaching 85. For women, the odds are 71% and 53%, respectively. All of this has made the 85-and-over age bracket the fastest-growing segment of the population.

Tim Voorhees - The Four Elements of Successful Planning

In this 1 minute highlight, Tim Voorhees, Managing Partner of Matsen Voorhees Law Offices discusses the four elements of successful planning.

Transcript: 

Tim: When you look at the elements of tax planning, you'll see there are four main ingredients. First is charitable planning. You get the income tax deductions, the tax-free growth, et cetera. Second is discounting, where when you move assets from one trust to another, you can often compress the value, what we call a squeeze and a freeze, or a squeeze and a freeze by Voorhees. Third, you have low-interest loans which work really well in the current low-interest environment. And then fourth is life-insurance. I put life insurance up there as one of the top four vehicles for efficient tax planning. In particular, what happens is, if you fund insurance correctly, you can do it very tax efficiently in the front end, the money grows tax-free and the money comes out tax-free. And that way, we find that the insurance is a key component of a lot of these advanced strategies.

Kirk Ashburn - Why Gold Could Keep Crashing

A financial professional since 2002, and a business owner and entrepreneur for the 10 years prior, I have the experience with a vast array of issues, from the simple to the complex. My team and I have credentials including securities licenses, insurance licenses and finance, business and law degrees.

Kirk has been in the financial services/ securities industry 13years.

 

Kirk is a student of the economy and the history and events behind the creation of our current economy. I have studied cycles and the history of how the economy grows and why it crashes. I have done a lot of work and study in the gold and silver markets.

His experience and training enables him to provide the services clients need to grow and protect their savings, and establish an income stream for life. His services range from retirement-income and safe money planning to wealth preservation and transfer to Social Security maximization. Kirk's team also includes a dedicated CPA for all tax and business related issues and an attorney for all estate planning needs. I have also added a college planning expert to give you the strategies that will save you thousands of dollars on tuition, if you qualify.  My dedication to helping clients prosper has resulted in a loyal, growing clientele.

“My mission is to help American families change the way they save and invest so that they have control of their money, independence and financial freedom.”

Away from work, I enjoy being a proud father of eight children and husband to the greatest woman on earth. I love reading about economic, military and world history and being a constant student in this ever changing world we live. 

This Why Gold Could KeepCrashing

Gold is in a false setting at this point due to more than one reason. It will rise out of the ashes. The first reason is that people believe that the dollar is strong and the economy is improving. I see another recession. And we see people still heading to market even though we are at all time highs. As we have seen 1999, 2006 and 07, the herd usually wants to get in at the most comfortable spot. 
I see a major crash coming and Greece was just the beginning. Greece was given a bandaid. And the bandaid was like the cheapest bandaid you could buy and it was wet. So as you know when it is wet it wont stick.
So I see the writing on the wall and we should start hedging against the market and start buying gold, have more cash and move to safety. I will go one step further and say have a little extra food in the pantry.
Silver on the other hand probably wont rise with gold as much as it did the last time. I see silver pegged to production and growth and quite frankly I don't see growth. 
I don't want to be doom and gloom. But all i can say is be prepared for the worst. 
The pundits have sold their lies for so long that they believe their own words.
We have been sitting at the poker table too long it is time to take your winnings and run. Buy gold, food and put a little cash under the mattress.

John Grace - Be More Diversified Than Ever

Here's a past highlight from one of our Guests. Find their full interview at www.ExitCoachRadio.com -- just click "Audio Library" in the "LISTEN" section and enter their name to hear all of their past interviews!

Transcript: 

John: There's nowhere to hide, there's no sure bet. And we're suggesting for those who can't afford, you know, "we're preparing to retire, I'm gonna start taking money out," they have to understand that they cannot afford a 50 to a 90% decline. So, what can we do? We're suggesting that we be more diversified than ever before. Most of us cut our teeth on mutual funds. What the mutual fund industry has taught us, the best way to invest is through a mutual fund, and when we look at the mutual funds, no matter how many you count, there are really only three categories: it's cash, it's bonds, and it's stocks. That's it! Well, the hedge to stocks is commodities. How much exposure do you have to commodities in your mutual funds? None. So, if you have real exposure to commodities, that's now a fourth leg underneath your stool, right? The natural hedge to bonds would be real estate investment trusts, business development corporations, where the yields are very predictable. That would now be the fifth leg underneath your stool. And then the natural hedge to the US dollar, for those who travel, certainly understand foreign currencies, and that would be a sixth leg underneath your stool of life savings. Insurance or annuities might be a seventh leg, but now we have seven legs underneath your stool. Certainly, we would all agree that seven legs under anything is more stable than one, two, or three.
