"Financial Advice" Articles
 

  • A Sound Financial Planning Can Avert A Catastrophe - Explore the financial options available to you. If you are looking out for corporate finance, hunt for that specially designed loan just for corporate financial needs. Plan your finances accordingly, before opting out for a loan, check out the various options open to you. See if you can afford that amount and pay back on time without calling up on a wrath on your business. Make use of the finance calculators to aid you in calculating the monthly EMI (Equated Monthly Installments) and also compare the loan terms and conditions accordingly. You can overcome your credit challenges with finance advice from online adverse credit experts for bad credits/no credit/CCJ/loan defaults/mortgage arrears or even bankruptcy.
  • Personal Financial Diet Can Turn Things Around - There is a lot of negative talk in the financial blogosphere right now. Discussion is rampant about slow economic growth, the poor housing market, mortgage foreclosures, and the increase in bankruptcies. Concern about looming financial instability is rampant. The reality of the issue if that many of us need to be on a financial diet. Is it the right time to shed those extra financial commitments you made when times were much rosier? Like quitting smoking or dieting, it's a psychological battle when it comes to keeping your finances under control. You will need to prepare a plan stating exactly how much you are going to spend, and how much you will save, by giving up certain things.
  • Who's Giving You Advice? - Our Career and Life Coaching clients usually tell me similar things. Most are looking for a path out of their current position into something that utilizes their true passion. Many times I hear from professionals stuck in their jobs that they are there because someone along the way pushed them there. Parents, counselors, pastors and other influential people have a way of trying to be helpful, but they can also get us off course.
  • What Does Football have to do with Finances? - OK, I admit it. I like football. This season has been especially exciting to watch. Although I don't understand all the strategies just yet, I enjoy watching the carefully planned plays. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't, but nevertheless, very fun stuff to watch. As I'm watching the games, it occurs to me that football and finances have a lot in common. (I admit, sometimes it's hard for me to turn my 'work' brain off, even in the middle of an exciting game). The plays are carefully planned, the teams spend countless hours practicing and strategizing, there is an experienced coach that guides the team to victory and they never give up.
  • Tips to Prepare for an Economic Downturn - Very few people ever plan their future and no less when it comes to their financial affairs. While the boom times may roll today, downturns will happen whether economic or personal.
  • Important 'Before You Join' Tips, for Home Business Seekers - Often time, people think that any product or service will do, they get excited about the pay plan and think that the rest will just fall into place. I know this because that is how is used to approach business. I would throw money at whatever 'opportunity' was the flavor of the month. Give me something to sell, so I can make some money, was the attitude I had. I spent tons of energy, time and money using this approach, selling everything from phone cards, to diet supplement. Finally after a bit of growing up, I started to see the cycles that I was going through. Literally, every six months I was starting a new business with the same feelings of excitement and anticipation as the last one, six months earlier. I decide to figure out WHY.
  • Compulsory Liquidation Advice - Compulsory liquidation advice can be given in many different ways but there are only three different types of liquidation; members' voluntary liquidation, creditors' voluntary liquidation and compulsory liquidation.This is not something every company goes through and it should not even be taken into consideration if the party has not received any legal help or has not been given compulsory liquidation advice. Something as serious as this is cannot be done without legal or financial advice to the accused party.
  • Estate: Surviving Your Estate - Recently I shared the heart-wrenching story of a young soldier who had to deal with the unexpected death of his mother. She didn't have her affairs in order and now her son has the extremely difficult task of recreating her financial details from scratch. Here are some simple steps you can take to ensure that your loved ones aren't left in a lurch.
  • Estate: When Friends And Family WANT Your Money - Few situations have a greater potential for problems as when dealing with money and relatives. If you've ever had a child ask you for a loan or a distant relative request money to start a business, then you know just how touchy these situations can be. Here are some real-life situations, along with some simple steps to help you safely navigate the tricky waters that result from mixing family and finances.
  • Estate: Don't Leave Loved Ones In a Lurch - Nothing brings home the importance of having our affairs in order than seeing the effects firsthand in your own family. My mother-in-law's recent death means my family is dealing with the realities of settling her affairs. Her advanced-planning greatly simplified the process. And it will for you, too. When her cancer returned, she had the wisdom and foresight to make sure that there would be proper access to her assets should she become incapacitated and that they would be easily transferred after her death. Those facing a terminal illness are motivated to address these issues. For the rest of us, they are often overlooked. No one lives forever and mental capacity can quickly diminish, so it is important that you prepare now. Besides, these issues aren't only for the elderly.
  • Estate: Signed, Sealed, Delivered - It's Theirs - My last few articles have focused on various end-of-life issues that were made very real to me due my mother-in-law's recent death. In this article, we'll discuss the simple steps you can take that will make dividing your personal possessions easier on your family. In many cases, the division of personal assets gives rise to family conflicts and disputes. There's the family china, the furniture, clothes, guns, jewelry and other collectibles.
  • Annuities: Equity Indexed Annuities - The Next Big Scandal - I believe that Equity Indexed Annuities and the sales practices used to sell them may well be the Next Big Investment Scandal you will hear about. You need to understand why and to think twice before you purchase one of these products. We have seen many scandals the last few years relating to mutual funds, variable annuities and more recently, to insurance companies. The common theme in all of these scandals has been the existence of hidden conflicts of interest. There is an unspoken trust when someone purchases a financial product. When someone is uncomfortable making a purchase on their own, they seek out the advice of a financial advisor.
  • Estate: When The Battle Begins At Home - I received a heart-wrenching phone call from a young soldier recently. His mother had just died and he was left with the responsibility of settling her estate. He had no idea the difficulties he would encounter-not on the battlefield but here in East Tennessee. The worst part is it could have been completely avoided. 'Brian', an Army soldier was on his way to Haiti when he received a phone call that his mother was in the hospital. Her outlook wasn't good.
  • Investing: It's Your Money: Make Sure You Keep Control Of It! - One of the biggest mistakes I frequently see investors make is needlessly losing control of their money. Any time you pay a hefty commission or face surrender penalties in order to get YOUR money you lose control. Losing control severely limits access to YOUR money and limits your flexibility to make changes. This can trap you in an under-performing investment adding years to the time needed to reach your goals. Whose money is it? Is it your broker's, banker's or insurance agent's? No, of course not. It's YOUR money. Don't believe the lie that says you have to pay a big commission or face years of onerous surrender charges to get an advisor's help when you invest. It's simply not true. Can you imagine your doctor or dentist asking you to pay them for 10 years worth of service up front?
  • Estate: Planning To Make Your Money Last Forever - It's true that you can't take it with you, but many are becoming more concerned about what happens to what they leave behind. Thanks to some recent changes in estate laws, strategies that were once only doable by the extremely wealthy are now more accessible by those of more modest means. Read on to see if you can take advantage of these estate planning tools and create a living legacy for your family.
  • Annuities: Consumer Alert - Equity Indexed Annuities - Seniors and retirees need to be aware of the dangers of investing in an Equity Indexed Annuity. Read on to find out how to protect yourself. Millions of retirees are being duped into buying the latest high-cost, high-commission product served up by the insurance industry-Equity Indexed Annuities (EIAs).
  • Estate: Protect Your Beneficiary's Inheritance - An inheritance is the precious fruit of years of labor. It is an expression of love. Nowadays, more than ever, an inheritance is something that should be protected.
  • Annuities: Better Alternatives Than Equity-Indexed Annuities - Equity Indexed Annuities (EIAs) have become the hot product of late. I believe you can easily find other alternatives that will bring a better return, without locking up your money or levying hefty surrender penalties. I'll discuss these alternatives in the next two articles. But first, you should understand two things: your purpose for investing and how EIAs work. Know why you're investing. For simplicity let's consider two objectives-stability and growth. If you are primarily concerned about protecting your investment and earning a stable rate of return then your main objective is stability.
  • Annuities: Equity-Indexed Annuities - There Are Better Growth Alternatives (Stability) - Every investor would like to increase their income without compromising their stability. Maybe that's why Equity Indexed Annuities (EIAs) have become so popular, because of their promise of providing a stable income stream. But there are a number of ways that you can easily outperform what an EIA can deliver. In this article, I'll show you how to meet your need for stability and income in your portfolio.
  • Annuities: Equity-Indexed Annuities - There Are Better Growth Alternatives - Everybody wants to find the secret to investing on Wall Street. But the truth is, you don't have to be a genius to be a successful equity investor.
