Self directed IRA accounts work great for those who want to make their own financial decisions, but what about individuals who are self employed or own small businesses? Where do they turn when it comes time to think about retirement plans?

Most of businesses aren’t big enough to qualify for a large retirement plan. So the IRS has constructed several small business retirement plans for these people to take advantage of. When it comes to retirement age, many self employed and small business owners could be left with a meager social security check that would not meet the needs of the lifestyle that they are accustomed to living.

Fortunately, most reputable self directed IRA custodians also offer plans such as SEP, SIMPLE, Solo 401(k), and Roth Solo 401(k).

Simplified Employee Plan (SEP)

The SEP is a retirement plan meant for self-employed individuals and small business owners. Typically, the small business has less than 25 employees. This plan offers the individual a retirement account that doesn’t require complicated qualified plans such as a conventional IRA or 401(k). Advantages include:

• All contributions are tax deductible and compound with tax-deferred savings until the time of withdrawal.
• The employer may contribute up to 25% of the employee’s wages with a maximum of $49,000 each year.

Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees (SIMPLE)

If you own a business with less than 100 employees and do not have any other type of qualified plan available, the SIMPLE is something to look into. With this plan, you and your spouse can make contributions if you make $45,000 or less per year. Advantages include:

• Tax deductible investments compounded with tax-deferment until the time of withdrawal.
• Employee contributions up to $11,500 for those under the age of 50.
• Employee contributions up to $14,000 for those over the age of 50.
• Employers match dollar for dollar up to 3% of the employee’s compensation.

Solo 401(k)

Think of this plan as a combination of the SIMPLE and the SEP. Basically, a sole proprietorship is offered a qualified plan that allows larger contributions and larger deductions. Advantages include:

• You don’t have to be incorporated to qualify. This includes sole proprietors, partnerships and corporations, too.
• Contributions can reach $16,500 annually if you are under the age of 50.
• Contributions can reach $22,000 annually if you are over the age of 50.
• 0-25% of your profit sharing may be included, too.

Roth Solo 401(k)

The Roth works the same as the Solo 401(k), but you also have the added tax benefits of a Roth IRA. Contribution levels remain the same, but taxes are paid before they are put into the retirement. Additional advantages include:

• If your income limits exceed qualification levels for a Roth IRA, you may be able to consider the Roth Solo 401(k) as an option.

There is a Retirement Plan for Everyone

If you thought that you would never be able to participate in a qualified plan, and you were starting to look at other investment opportunities, you still have some other options. Generally, a retirement plan will offer compound interest through tax deductions and tax deferment that other types of investments aren’t able to offer.

If you are looking into the different types of self directed IRA accounts that you may qualify for, you may want to consider one of these four options.

Small Business – A Mindset For Surviving Recession Now and Thriving in 2011 & 2012



Staff Retrenchment Isn’t The Answer
Retrenchments occur because they save money. In almost every business, wages and other staff costs are the biggest or second biggest expense. Retrenching 20% of 50,000 or 10,000 staff saves huge amounts of money. And you still have 40,000 or 4,000 employees remaining to reorganize to share the workload.

Retrenching 5 of 20 or 2 of 10 employees produces modest savings. And in a busy small business it’s more difficult for 20 staff to do the work of 25 or 8 to do the work of 10 than for 40,000 to be reorganized to do the work of 50,000.

Retain Your Staff: Reduce Your Profits
Are you prepared to work on reduced profit margins so that you can retain staff? Almost all your competitors will retrench staff, reduce prices and cut costs. But their service standards will drop. Their revenues will fall. They might maintain a 25% gross profit. But 25% of severely reduced recession revenues may be less than 20% of pre recession revenues. Your objective is to maintain a viable business for the next 2-3 years so that you can regain good gross profit as quickly as possible.

Be Ready For Intense Competition
Recessions create competition. Expect your competitors to use all sorts of tactics to frankly, put you out of business. They’ll reduce prices, extend credit lines, offer bulk discounts, target your best clients and staff and even spread misinformation about your financial viability. Don’t be surprised when this happens. Be ready for it.

It’s Bargain Time
Recession time is bargain time. I don’t advocate wanton spending merely to “snap up” bargains. But during a recession, you should also be able to negotiate lower prices from suppliers. You may even be able to renegotiate and extend current leases at favourable terms. Of course, you must have the cash flow to support such expenses. Don’t overextend just for a “good price”.

Recessions Create Winners As Well As Losers
During the Great Depression, employees who kept their jobs, even with reduced wages, improved their living standards. Wages may have reduces by 50%. But prices for commodities such as eggs, milk, meat, bread, sugar and similar staples fell by up to 80%. Many companies too, stayed in business with reduced revenues. But their expenses also fell. And they gained new clients from businesses which closed. It may be doom and gloom for many. But if you can survive you should also thrive. Make recession a positive self fulfilling prophecy for your business.

Conclusion
When your business survives the recession, it will be leaner and better focussed. You’ll have better systems, better expense control, higher performance standards, more dedicated customers and more committed staff. Put simply, you’ll have a far more effective business than you had prior to the recession. And that’s the biggest benefit of all.

5 Things You Can Do to Have More Spending Money



There are only limited ways to have more spending money. One way is that you need to have more income. Income comes in the form of wages, salary, rentals, interest and saving. Spending money can come in the form of essential expenses as well as spending on wants and desires. There are ways however, to reduce spending in order to have more money to spend. What? Sounds gibberish…let’s take a look.

A budget will quite often help to free up cash. If you are unaware of your expenses and how it relates to your income this is the most important step of all. Completing a budget will show up your spending habits and give you an idea of just what you actually do with your money. Once you know this you’ll be surprised at how much you can save to allocate to other types of spending. Take a serious look at your power account, your telephone bills and other utilities. Phone the competitors of your usual supplier and see if they can give you a better deal. Often a provider will give you an incentive to change your services to them. This might be in the form of a deposit of say $50 on your first account or a special reduction on rates for a set period. It’s worth taking a look but make sure you are getting a better deal at the end of the day. Grab the remote and look at the cable TV channels you have. Which ones do you have access to that you never watch? Make a list of all of the channels that you can access. Mark off the ones that you watch and those that you don’t. Contact the cable company and see if you can reduce the costs by changing the package you are on. Review your life insurances. While there are certain things that require insuring there may be better options since you took the policy out. Do this with an adviser and don’t just cancel policies. Sometimes you may find premiums have come down or the amount of cover is no longer right for you. If you haven’t reviewed insurances for a long time it’s time you did. Also review your general insurance policies. If you take out vehicle insurance, contents and home cover with the same company you normally get a discount. You can also lower premiums by taking on a higher excess.

These five tips are a start to reducing your expenses so that you have more spending money.

Predictions for 2011: New US Tax Cuts and More Jobs Stop the Recession and Lower the National Debt



The US needs more jobs. Our economy has not been fully repaired despite recent stimulus programs. Both sides argue now as to the value of extending tax cuts in order to stimulate the economy. How can we increase job production with tax cuts? I predict in 2011 new tax cuts will stimulate jobs and lift the US out of recession and economic crisis.

Instead of extending the current income tax cuts that do not directly stimulate hiring workers, I predict the US will devise new laws for employers who hire staff. Yes, a new law that allows additional income tax credits for hiring and retention of workers is the newest form of tax cut for the US. With this new law unemployment figures will improve, the economy will begin to accelerate and the national debt will be reduced.

Any new hires that increase an employer’s payroll will receive an additional 30 percent tax credit over and above the regular deductions for paid wages for the first six months. This tax cut would be in effect as long as the business does not lay off other workers. Any business that retains these new staff and maintains a higher payroll will receive an additional 20 percent tax credit on wages for the next six months. Then a 10 percent tax credit for increased payroll for the following whole year will be made. Employers will automatically feel less economic risk and uncertainty when hiring because of these new laws.

Of course, if a business later lays off any new or senior workers during that time, then that employer will lose that portion of their new tax credit and their regular deduction. Meanwhile all the employers who merely want to avoid or evade paying taxes will receive no further benefit in their federal income tax assessments.

New staff will soon start spending their paychecks while driving the engine of the US economy to new heights. These workers will also be paying taxes which will decrease the US national debt and fund necessary programs. This is the most effective single way to reward employers, hire jobless workers and lower the national debt. US citizens will demand the most effective solution possible – and I predict that this new tax law will be the answer in 2011 for the US.
