    Quotables

     

    “The self-directed IRA is still an IRA. It’s actually just a marketing term.”

     

    “A self-directed one means that you can invest into non-traditional assets. If the term ‘self-directed’ is not there, it will most likely mean you cannot invest in non-traditional assets, or mostly in the stock market in general.”

     

    “You have to use an intermediary - you have to use us to do the same thing, except the asset class is changing.”

     

    “By keeping it in the IRA, keeping it under the hands of a custodian like us, you’re not being taxed until you decide ‘I wanna retire and do something with that personally’.”

     

    “Everyone can take advantage of a self-directed IRA, but someone that really should be able to jump into this right now, today is gonna be someone that has an entrepreneur mindset that wants to get out of the stock market.”

     

    “The whole point of it is you have an end goal and we’re gonna help you get to it.”

     

    “A rollover is a fancy word for the movement between an employer plan to an IRA.”

     

    “Now we’ve moved funds over from the 401K plan in this situation, now you have to find your opportunity and this is where self-direction comes into play. Quest won’t give you a list of opportunities.”

    “My returns go into my retirement account. It’s not my money until I distribute it.”

     

    “Most Americans coming from 401K plans, they’re probably gonna be taxed by the end of the retirement stage.”

     

    “If they can’t value it correctly, the IRS can’t tax you properly.”

     

    “I think IRAs are designed to be fairly passive.”

     

    “A savvy investor has to really up their knowledge when it comes to IRAs and really plan far ahead.”

     

    “Depreciation is completely taken out of your hands. Leverage isn’t completely taken out of your hands, but you have to get what’s called a ‘non-recourse loan’.”

     

    “Just a little bit of education can get you a long way.”

    Quotables

     

    “The government hasn’t curbed their spending, they’re not doing to make energy more accessible, so that’s gonna stay expensive.”

     

    “Kiyosaki went on Oprah in 1990, everybody knows about this! They just don’t get involved, they don’t get started.”

     

    “Strategic and systematically buy assets so that when there is the next disaster and the fed does blast lower rates, then you refi everything out.”

     

    “Like I’d always say, real estate doubles in value every 20-30 years, I think I’m gonna stop saying 30 because consistently, we are seeing real estate double in value every 20 years.”

     

    “If you’re gonna buy and hold these assets forever, for long-term, then the smartest thing you can do is lock in a 30-year fixed to get these things paid off.”

     

    “Most home builders have not been aggressively scaling and growing based on what they fear could be a downturn.”
