| There is a legitimate cause for concern among baby boomers as we begin reaching retirement age. Saen Higgins, founder of Wealth Without Risk, points out that the health of America’s Social Security system is certainly alarming. Experts believe that if nothing is done, the Social Security trust fund will run dry by about 2037. Among those experts, there is talk of asking people to delay their retirement just a little, allowing Uncle Sam to fix the cash flow shortfalls within the system. “That certainly wouldn’t be my first choice,” claims Higgins. The Reagan administration was able to stop the dam from breaking, albeit temporarily. The President and Congress elected to impose a very small tax increase, raising the amount paid by employers and workers from 5.4 percent each in 1983 to the current 6.2 percent. “Another tax increase?” asks Higgins, “I don’t believe this is the answer Americans are looking for.”Either way, you can chose to wait it out or, and this is especially important to you Generation X’ers, you can be proactive in your approach to planning for retirement. We have all heard from our various advisors about the importance of diversifying our portfolio. But what does that really mean? It means you need a mix of high risk/high yield investments and low risk/possibly lower yield investments. What Higgins teaches his Wealth Without Risk students how to do is to add to that a low risk, HIGH yield investment through the purchase of tax lien certificates. Saen Higgins believes that individuals investing in tax lien certificates are creating a steady flow of income for themselves and are better prepared for a future without Social Security.“Personally, I believe that requiring the trustees to make a 75 year forecast for social security funds, is asking for the impossible. With my own business, I struggle to project what the bottom line will look like 12 months from now. So, keeping that in mind, we need to work smarter, and insure that we are investing with the future in mind, not knowing what the future truly looks like.”Investing in tax lien certificates is the only 100% guaranteed recession proof investment out there. Wealth Without Risk has created a proven method for investing in tax lien certificates that insures investors will receive a 16-22% return on their investment each and every time.When you invest in property tax liens there is no reason why you need to worry about the investment decisions you’ve made. Tax lien certificates are safe, recession proof and can be accomplished on your home computer. |
