Product Description
In recent years many smart investors have exited the stock market because they have essentially lost control of their investments. They have relied on the advice and skill of their brokers, bankers, and financial advisors. Many retirement accounts have dwindled or not increased. Fortunately, there is a great but little-understood alternative: the self-directed IRA. This new book will teach you how to turn your IRA into a wealth-building tool that you control 100%! Take control of your investment future, and make sure your investments are performing for YOU, not someone else. Why haven t your banker and broker ever told you about this new IRA? Because they will no longer make any money on your retirement account! New IRS regulations and the new self-directed IRA make it effortless to build up and keep hold of IRA money. Inside this new book you ll find out how to benefit from the new IRS rules and how to stay away from problems. With a self-directed IRA you can purchase real estate, buy a business or franchise, invest in high-yield mortgages and notes, invest in tax liens and foreclosed homes, manage property purchased by your retirement, rental property, ocean-front property, lake-front property, probate property, commercial property, REO property, tax-lien property, repossessed property, foreclosed property, apartment communities, and storage facilities. You can invest in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or virtually any investment allowed by IRS regulations. The self-directed IRA lets you act as your own investment manager. We will show you how to set up your account with a custodian or IRA administrator to deal with the day-to-day activities, such as depositing contributions and executing and settling investment transactions. It s easy, fun, and puts you back in control of your retirement account. Retire Rich with Your Self-Directed IRA combines essentials, insight, and insider secrets to secure a financial victory after retirement. **Award-Winning**

3 out of 5 starsSo, So., 2009-11-17
This was my intro to the Self-Managed IRA. I found the tables to be inadequate as many do not have a reference point. It is difficult to understand when their is only one indicator.

Seems the author is not a investment or IRA professional but someone who supposedly did a Self-Managed IRA. It would have been nice to see her track record, beginning with x$ and 5, 10, 15 years later revealing her growth.

I would look for a better reference book before embarking on what I consider to be the only way to have an IRA.

4 out of 5 starsNo Hype - No Fluff...Just down to earth, practical advice., 2009-07-23
The author does a great job in taking a rather boring subject and make it both easy to understand and interesting.

I highly recommend it to those that awake and thinking about what's going on in our country today; especially where it concern the huge tax burdons we are destined to carry.

Members of our REO Investing Group use the information to help their families and friends understand how easy it is to make money as lenders for my groups' investments.

5 out of 5 starsGreat Resource Tool and More, 2008-09-09
A great resource on an important topic. Most investors don't realize that Self Directed IRA is the real key to generating the highest return for your retirement. Kudos to the author, I haven't seen much written on this topic. If anyone is looking to open a self directed IRA, I suggest visiting www.celerityplan.com. The author should include this as a resource in the next book. Wonderful results and very "snazzy" model!

5 out of 5 starsSuccessful Retirement Planning - Knowing the Right Questions to Ask, 2008-01-20
One of the main goals of author Nora Peterson, in the publishing of this book, was to share information in an easily understood format to increase the awareness of the multiple options available to retirees and future retirees when considering how to invest and protect hard-earned money accumulated over a lifetime.

The book addresses a wide range of critical aspects to be considered when planning for a long-term retirement. It touches upon subjects we have heard about, some that we haven't, and yet others that should be considered when planning for our future and those of our heirs.

Taking control of our financial future
* Movement of retirement funds into a self-directed IRA
* Understanding the roles and responsibilities of an IRA custodian, trustee, and administrator
* Creating a team of professionals to maximize income-producing opportunities while effectively managing risks - especially as it pertains to unnecessary tax penalties which can and should be avoided

Non-Traditional IRA investment options
* Real Estate
* Purchase and sale of mortgage notes
* Owning a business within an IRA or participating in a business partnership
* Buying precious metals

Managing distributions from our IRA
* Circumstances permitting withdrawals prior to age 59½ without paying a 10% tax penalty for early withdrawal
* Withdrawals to pay for health insurance when unemployed, without incurring a tax penalty
* Withdraw $10,00 to purchase a first home for a child, grandchild, or parent without penalty

Asset Protection and Stretching Your IRA
* Designation of a single beneficiary; and
* Designation of multiple beneficiaries to minimize tax risks

Getting to the "point" according to Nora Peterson:

"The point is getting through this life with the maximum comfort and security you can arrange and ending up with at least a little left over when you're finished."

That is our intended goal, isn't it?

Written simply, easy to understand, after 3 other books, this is the one! Just do it! You can buy and sell real estate, etc and put the profit back in and not pay taxes - follow the rules!
You can do it!
