How much do lower
fees really help us reach our goals?
Vanguard just
lowered the minimum for us to qualify for lower fees on funds. Many brokerage
firms are cutting fees. Does a low fee really matter over the life of a
retirement fund? The comparison is simple: $250 a month $3,000 a year for 34
years at the average
earnings of the S&P 500 index (11.06%) is $1.1
million. We pay .04% so we net about 11% a year on average. If we deduct 1%
from our earnings, we have only $863,483
or $247,517 less. That is 22% less. If you let your advisor manage your
account, you earn only 3.79%
for 34 years according to Dalbar’s survey of actual investors. That means the
trading and market timing will cost you $902,930: $1.1 million (you could have
earned) minus $208,070 (your earnings). Will you drop your advisor in order to
make more money for retirement? We follow Buffett’s advice.

Are small business
deductions right for you?
Many Americans are
turning to creating a business out of their part time and sometime work
schedule in order to help their family survive the increasing costs of living. Wages
have been flat since the 1980s for many middle-income workers and it makes
sense to pay as little tax as possible. A quarter of workers make less than $10
an hour, putting them below the federal poverty line. Meanwhile the top 1% owns
40% of our country’s wealth. Following The Leader’s example, many are able to
actually reduce their regular W-2 income for tax purposes. The GOP has provided
another incentive: an extra
20% deduction from net profits. Just follow the deductions here:
https://smallbiztrends.com/2016/02/top-tax-deductions-for-small-business.html.
A special for Uber/Lyft
drivers is deducting the ‘snacks’ you provide in your car. After you take
all these legal biz deductions, take another 20% when you qualify. You may not
be able to reduce
all your income to negative for years, like The Leader, but at least you
can add income without more taxes.

Why
are we subsidizing GM? Trump threatens to cut subsidies to GM
Is America a Socialist country? When our tax
dollars are paying a private company to make a profit, How is that different
than in China , Russia or Cuba ? How much of our tax dollars are going to GM and other corporations so
their CEOs can receive
multimillion paychecks? And some profitable
corps don’t pay taxes—even with the tax cuts! How socialist is that? They
receive subsidies and don’t pay taxes and yet buy expensive planes and toys for
their CEOs. Sounds like a ‘welfare
queen’ to me.

subsidies: https://www.amazon.com/Americas-Socialism-for-Rich-little-people/dp/1535218584
Do you need a REAL
middle-income tax break?
The REAL tax break
from the GOP and Trump is the removal of the income
cap on conversions from traditional IRAs to Roth IRAs. The 1.6% income
increase for the average household earning $50,000 to $75,000 has been eaten
up by tariffs and health care costs. Compare the $thousands you save in
taxes during retirement when most of your income is tax-FREE and you no longer
have to take taxable RMDs from your IRAs. For many, the elimination of tax on
IRA distributions means their income can continue to grow after 70 ½ AND they
will pay less tax or nothing on their SS
benefits.

NY requires
insurance agents to give us the best deal ‘fiduciary duty’
The New York
Department of Financial Services issued a final regulation in July that is set to go
into effect in August 2019. The rule requires that "only the interests of the
consumer" be taken into account when making an insurance sales pitch, and
compensation to the agent or broker is only permitted if it "does not influence
the recommendation." "Thus, this regulation effectively requires the
agent to become a fiduciary to the consumer." Agents and their association
claim they can’t make a living since they are acting for insurers, not us. But
insurers know the fiduciary rule is best for the industry long-term and also
know agents will continue to sell their products including high-cost annuities.
Corporate management
uses life insurance to avoid taxes
Insurers sell a special
policy that works tax miracles for business owners. Their corporation makes
contributions to the plan. Rank and file employees do not get any
benefits. The contributions are tax deductions to the corporation. The
contributions go to fund life insurance whose beneficiaries are designated by
the owners. The principals are able to access the cash surrender value of the
insurance contracts tax free. The beneficiaries do not recognize any income.
Perfect scam: owners pay less tax and get life insurance benefits for free. CSV
can be security for purchases and loans.
