"Here's Exactly What I Would Do If I Were To Retire This Year, Even If The Markets Were About To Crash. ”
HINT: The Solution Is NOT A Guaranteed Income Stream From An Annuity...
Many Americans are taking more risk than they realize.
You work your entire life, put money into your 401(k), and have “done everything right”, but could end up having to delay your retirement by several years because of one bad market crash.
Like the one we had in 1987.
Or the one we had in 1990.
Or the one we had in 2000.
Or the one we had in 2008.
Or the one we had in 2020.
Or, more recently, the one we had in 2022.
(And that’s just the past few crashes)
Don’t forget about the other years with a major market crash, like 1982, 1972, 1968, 1965, 1961, 1946, 1938, 1929, 1922, 1906, and 1903...
You still need income, right? So, let’s say your accounts were down -30% and took 4% out of your portfolio as income. Now you are down -34%, which means you would need a +50% return just to break even.
It could take years before you recover… and in retirement, you don’t have that kind of time. This is especially true if you find yourself retired during a flat market cycle.
They were also flat between 1966 to 1976.
And between 1929 to 1952.
And between 1906 to 1921.
The pattern keeps going.
What’s even more alarming is how few people, including financial professionals, know about the historical pattern of flat-market cycles.
Imagine how stressful it would have been to retire in 2000.
You can't control the markets.
But, you can control your plan, investments, products, and strategies.
Do you want help designing your retirement to avoid these kinds of risks and potential problems?
That’s why I wrote the book that is for sale on this page.
It's called "How to Retire on Time," and it's available for just $9.95.
That's 50% off the price you'd get on Amazon.
You only pay the price of standard shipping costs.
Inside my book, you’ll discover:
How to create a retirement plan that’s designed to last longer than you (without relying on guaranteed income streams that may not keep up with inflation).
How to front-load your retirement income so you can potentially enjoy more travel when you retire.
What to do when the markets crash (why I believe you need two income strategies... one for when the markets are up, and another for when the markets are down.).
How to help minimize your exposure to potential losses so that you can maintain peace of mind while the rest of the neighborhood experiences sleepless nights.
The key to minimizing taxes that could otherwise cost you multiple six figures throughout retirement.
How to optimize your Social Security so you can help increase your overall income while protecting your estate so that you can potentially retire years sooner than planned (Hint: the solution is often not to file at 62, 67, or 70 years old).
Of course, I can’t promise that you’ll never experience any losses, or that you’ll be able to retire with more money than Oprah.
There's no such thing as a perfect investment, product, or strategy.
But what I can promise is that the information within this book can help you be better prepared for any ups and downs that the market will experience (and it will experience them) in the future, so that you can sleep easy at night knowing you’ll be able to potentially retire on time and stay retired...
…and maybe even sooner using some of the strategies I’ll show you inside of the book!
Anyone who wants to retire within the next 10 years.
Working professionals who don’t want to retire yet, but want to have everything in order for when the time is right.
Anyone who wants to have their assets professionally managed, but doesn't know how to hold their financial professional accountable.
Those who are currently retired and feel like their current plan is either lacking in certain areas or could use an upgrade.
Individuals who keep delaying their retirement because they fear the current market conditions.
Anyone who currently has the majority of their assets at risk in a stock/bond fund portfolio (you're probably taking more risk than you realize).
Anyone who has questions about retirement that are not being answered by their current financial professional.
Individuals who want a second opinion but don’t want to accidentally end up in a high-pressure sales situation with a product-focused advisor.
Anyone that wants to manage their retirement on their own but is unsure where to start or how to put it all together.
Even the technology in the bonuses is easy to use. If you are reading this page, chances are, you have more than enough experience with technology to operate the planning software and create a retirement plan that is designed to last longer than you.
That said, those with a financial background will likely appreciate the strategies and principles that are taught in this book.
One of the bonuses is a self-guided workbook that can help speed up your planning process so you can quickly discover what your future could look like.
If you decide you want certain investments that are not available to the public, like insurance products, alternative investments (e.g. Absolute Return Models, Fixed-Indexed Annuities (as a bond alternative), Delaware Statutory Trusts, Cash-Valued Life Insurance, Private Equity/Credit, etc.) then you will need to go through a licensed financial professional.
Your plan, and the assessments given in the book can help guide you to the right investments or products.
Some think this book is going to suggest that you buy a bunch of annuities so when you want to retire, you can just turn on your retirement income streams.
ALSO WRONG!
I'll explain why I believe the guaranteed income for life strategy could also be considered risky.
Create a plan (not a pie chart) that can tell you year-by-year how much income you should be able to expect in retirement.
Determine how soon you can afford to retire by running the numbers with my calculator (It’s easier than you think).
Minimize your taxes by optimizing your income year over year using our proprietary tax minimization calculation.
Optimize your Social Security benefit by considering how when you file can affect your income and estate overall.
Follow the Rules of Retirement so you can dynamically adapt and maintain your plan through the different markets.
Implement a proprietary portfolio strategy that can help you maintain your retirement when markets go down or stay flat for an extended period of time.
Diversify your assets by purpose instead of lumping everything together with investment ambiguity.
Run our self-guided assessments so you can find potential problems before they derail your retirement plans.
And more!
This book is intended to help you, in my opinion, properly prepare for retirement without any pressure from external sources.
My hope is that you will be able to retiree sooner than expected so you can have more control of your most precious commodity, time.

If you want to learn and potentially implement strategies that can help maintain your income and quality of life during market crashes and/or flat market cycles…
If you want to discover how to proactively help minimize your taxes, which could be one of your biggest retirement expenses…
…all while you avoid keeping the majority of your assets at risk in a stock/bond portfolio or locking up your assets in irrevocable "guaranteed-for-life" income streams…
Then this book is for you!
My latest book, How to Retire on Time, will show you how I take complicated and unique financial situations and create retirement plans that are easy to understand.
You may be wondering, “Why haven’t I heard about this strategy before?” Well, here are two reasons why…
First, the industry is full of powerful influences that want financial advisors to sell a product (e.g., the stock/bond fund portfolio or an annuity income stream).
These companies make very convincing arguments. Many advisors and agents believe in the story and end up pitching clients what they have been told.
The second reason I believe is because it takes a lot of effort for a financial practice to support a plan like this.
Consider how easy it is to sell an annuity. Once the policy has been funded, the insurance company basically does the rest while the insurance agent walks away with their commission.
Why would an advisor want to create extra work for themselves each year when they can fall in line with what the industry promotes?
Maybe I’m a fool, but I believe in doing what is right for the client, even if it means more work for me. It’s literally my job, and I take it very seriously.
You also may be wondering, “Why am I sharing this information?”
I want to protect people from strategies that I believe are extreme and dangerous. I can’t get behind annuitized income streams as the end-all solution. I also can’t support a retiree keeping all of their assets at risk in a stock/bond fund portfolio while hoping that the market never crashes again.
It’s just not right, in my opinion...
What you’ll find in the book “How to Retire on Time” is a different way to plan for retirement. You’ll discover many innovative strategies that can help you think outside of the box and shift into a potentially more advantageous position as you get closer to retirement.
As you’ll soon discover, I don’t hold back in the book.
It’s all there.
It is so transparent that you could read the book, run your calculations, and manage your retirement without ever talking to me. In my mind, that would still be considered a success.
I wrote this book and am sharing what I’ve learned over the past decade because I want to help you. The best way I know how is to help you get your retirement set up correctly.

How to Retire on Time Audiobook
I’ve been working with retirees and near retirees since 2013.
The strategies you will discover in this book come from a decade of frustration with the financial services industry.
No matter where I looked, all I could find were oversimplified sales pitches that ignored the downside of the “solutions” being presented.
This book is a compilation of everything I believe you need to know in order to retire and stay retired.
I want to help you succeed.
In addition to writing the book, "How to Retire on Time," I actively write for Kiplinger, one of the top personal finance magazine in the country.
I hope that all of this can help people, just like you, retire on time, and enjoy their retirement for as long as they live.
