The stock market is up double digits. It has been now for years.
We've seen a jump of more than 300% since 2009! It's insane. But, are you seeing similar numbers of growth in your account?
We discuss this more live from the radio show. Listen in.

Go jump on your employer benefits website and see how the growth in your 401k for the year to date measurement. The S&P went up 14%. What did you do?
If it's not 14% -- that's okay, because if you are only tracking against the SMP, you're measuring the wrong thing.
To make the full 14% the S&P experienced, you have to be willing to accept 100% of the risk. What does that mean? From the high in 2007 to the low of 2008 there were over 50% in losses.
You can earn 14% returns... if you're okay with the risks.

If you have at least two decades until retirement a big loss would allow you to buy more and maximize your growth.
If you are over 40 you need to grow as much as possible while not hurting your long-term plan. The short term growth is not worth the long-term risk.

Don't just look at your investments. It's about...
your income,
your risks,
your assets,
your protection,
and so many other pieces of the bigger picture.
It's not about how much you are making or how much you are saving.
Did you know there is a way for your 401(k) and your life insurance to work together to help you reach the dreams for the future?
There is a way your home owner's insurance and those stocks you received from your grandfather to work together in a strategy that gives you what you need for retirement.
This is the reality, friends!
A lot of your financial lives resemble that drawer you avoid in your kitchen. Don't worry I have one too. We all do.
But, it doesn't have to be that way with your financial plan.
My client who wanted to make 14% is now happy to make 6% over the year because her plan includes a strategy. She is on her way to a successful retirement while not stressing over every week's headlines.** **
