DON'T BE NAIVE!                  AND                   DON'T DO THIS!

Here's a "Real Life Scenario" that we've seen in the Securities Industry OVER and OVER and OVER.

Here's what you DON'T see UNLESS you know where to look OR you've been verbally told:

The Scenario:

Open your eyes

​- WE CAN SHOW YOU HOW TO FIX THIS!

- WE CAN EDUCATE YOU!

- IT'S NOT DIFFICULT TO FIND "HIDDEN FEES" WHEN YOU KNOW WHERE TO LOOK!

​- YOUR BROKER WILL THINK TWICE ABOUT CHARGING YOU "HIDDEN FEES" WHEN YOU
  UNDERSTAND "THE BASICS"!

Your broker tells you: "We only charge 1% Annually to manage your account".

​​

  • ​Would you know if the Mutual Funds you purchased paid your broker an ADDITIONAL 5.5%?

  • ​Would you know if the Annuity you purchased paid your broker an ADDITIONAL 8%?

  • Would you know that a bond you own may actually pay 5% but the broker took 2 points and now your net yield is only 3% ON TOP of your 1% Annual rate?

  • Would you know if your broker hands off your portfolio to a money manager? 
    Money management fees can be as high as 2% Annually ON TOP your 1% Annual rate.

  • Would you know if the Mutual Funds you own have "expense fees" of up to 1.5% Annually ON TOP of your 1% Annual Rate?

  • Would you know if your broker charged you "commissions" to buy Investments ON TOP of your 
    ​1% Annual rate?
