#LandTrusts #PersonalTrusts
—————————————————————————-
Hi! My name is Lou Brown. People ask me sometimes. How much does it cost for a Living Trusts? Well, that’s a very interesting question. It’s a good question. Now it really depends on the size of your estate. It depends on what you’re trying to do with your estate. You know, sometimes there’s special needs, family members that you want to make a special provision for. Sometimes there’s certain assets that are unique and unusual assets that it would make more sense to have divided up. So there’s a variety of different answers. But to answer the question, a Living Trusts can be as little as $499.
Now, why do I say that? Because I am connected with a distributor that actually has an online version of a Living Trusts. Where you can literally go in there. Put in your little detailed information and the trust is created. It’s actually printed out. It’s labeled as to where to sign. They put it in a nice binder. And they ship it to you. So that’s the least expensive solution to it. And also I recommend that you learn about trusts. Not just to do one, but also to learn the magnificence of this marvelous thing called trusts.
I do have a four day training on trusts. And you can find out more about that here. It’s called http://MaximumAssetShield.com. You can find out more about what we do and how we do it, and certainly that you could do it yourself. And I say, it’s very important to know where the bones are buried. And teach others what they need to know so that you can avoid probate. That’s one of the most marvelous benefits of placing a property into trust, is it avoids probate. That process by which the court system takes it from the dead person and gives it to the rightful living heirs, whomever they might be. Well, you can avoid all of that expense delay confusion simply by setting up your trust before you pass away. And no need for that thing called probate. So hopefully this has been of help for you. My name is Lou Brown. I look forward to seeing you soon. Yeah, baby!

#LandTrusts #PersonalTrusts
——————————————————————————
Hi! It’s Lou Brown. I’m back with another answer. How many trusts can I have? Well, the answer is, as many as you want. You could have one trust and in that trust could be everything you own. Now that could present a problem because you’ve put all of your eggs in one basket. Now, my favorite trust, that’s called the Land Trusts. The Land Trusts allows you to name the trust anything you choose. And because it’s so easy to establish and so easy to create and so easy to operate as well, then it makes a lot of sense to take each asset and put it in it’s own trust. Now, Land Trusts is for real estate. So let’s say you had 10 properties. You’d put each property in its own trust. Now there’s another companion to the Land Trust and that is the Personal Property Trusts.
So Personal Property Trusts is for everything else in your life. Stocks, bonds, mutual funds, bank accounts, CDs, Cdos, mobile homes, motor homes, gun collections, coin collections, literally everything else in your life that’s not real estate can go into a Personal Property Trusts. Or again, you can have individual trust for each asset. You could also have separate beneficiaries of each asset. So therefore you would be dividing your estate during your lifetime. So because of the fact that you’ve divided your estate, and you’ve said who you want your successor beneficiary to be, you would be the primary beneficiary. And then they would be the successor beneficiary. Literally the assets would be passing to the respective heirs without them having to have a conversation about it after your death. So that’s a marvelous way that you can eliminate family squabbles and challenges after you pass away.
Well, hopefully this has been helpful to you. I do have a four day event. It’s called MaximumAssetShield.com and you’re able to go and find out more about that four day live training, where we’re in class together. You actually bring a deed with you to class, and we actually do everything necessary to transfer your properties, your assets into trust. So certainly something that would be entertaining for you and very beneficial financially to be able to do as well. Now, also there’s a home study course. You can find out more about that at MaximumAssetShield.com. Hope to see you soon. Yeah, baby!

—————————————————————————–
Hi! My name is Lou Brown. I’ve been asked. How many discretionary trusts can I have? Well, it really depends on what you’re trying to accomplish. Now, one of the ways that I deal with that question is I put each asset in a separate trust. You might think to yourself, well, that’s going to be expensive Lou! Well, what if you already had the forms disk and you could create each trust yourself? That’s exactly what I do. We already have the paperwork. It’s already done. Once you do one as a model, then you can do that duplicatably. So then to have one trust and have multiple things within that trust to me is putting all your eggs in one basket, unless it’s a very specific kind of trust. So when you’re outside of that realm, then the best way to do it is to put each asset in its own trust.
And I use something called Land Trusts. Land trusts and Personal Property Trusts. The Land Trusts are for real estate and Personal Property Trusts are for everything else in your life. Stocks, bonds, mutual funds, bank accounts, et cetera. Your vehicles can be in trusts. So those allow you to put each asset kind of insulated and isolated from everything else so that you have, if there’s an attack, or if there’s an issue with one particular asset, it’s not going to infect or affect the rest of the assets that you have. And that is the best kind of discretion you can have, right? Is that you would be able to have control over those various assets using this thing called Land Trusts and Personal Property Trusts. Now, there is another type of trust that I teach that is a very advanced trust. And for some of you that would make sense.
Now I’m going to be training that at our upcoming event, it’s a four day event it’s called MaximumAssetShield.com MaximumAssetShield.com. You can learn more about that. We’re going to go soup to nuts through the entire process of how to set up the trust. What type of trust to use? What type of other entities might be involved? LLCs. Corporations. Limited partnership. We’re going to talk about taxes. Taxes are a big, huge benefit where you can grow your business dramatically. Using the benefits of taxes that using the combination of trusts with your knowledge about taxes, man, you can advance your business dramatically. Not only tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and over a lifetime, millions of dollars can be saved simply by understanding the tax code better. So we’re going to definitely delve into some things that most CPAs aren’t aware of.
Most attorneys are not aware of. And definitely most financial planners are not aware of. So it’s going to be you actually learning it for yourself. Why not turn it over to the professionals? Well, one of the things is that you don’t quite understand what’s going on. So I suggest that you really understand what’s going on when you’re going to be burying the bones. And that means burying the bones in the backyard, we’ve got to have a map to all of those different bones. And we got to know what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, and then certainly have it reviewed by an attorney after you do all the understanding work and setting one a model trust up. Once you get that approved, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom! From now on, you’ll have the autofill software and you can just create the trust yourself.
So that’s an opportunity for you definitely to come to a training, learn more about what it’s all about. And then once you have that understanding, you’re really able to advance your business in a remarkable way. MaximumAssetShield.com or you can call our number 1-800-578-8580. Love to see you there. Yeah, baby!

How Long Can Trusts Last #16

How Long can Trusts Last?

That’s an interesting question because it depends where you establish your trust at. Various states do various things. But most states do a 20 year contract.

————————————————————————————

Hi! My name’s Lou Brown. I’ve been asked. How long can trusts last? Well, that’s an interesting question because it depends on where you establish your trust at. There’s different States within the United States that compete against each other to attract your business, to come to their state.

So one of the things they do is, for example, if you establish your trust in South Dakota, they have something called a perpetual trust. Which means it just goes on and on and on. In Alaska, they have a thousand year trust. So you can just have it for a thousand years, and then it expires after that. Right? And so various States do various things, but most States establish these under contract law. Which means that the contract has a 20 year life span. So what a trust really is, is a contract. It’s a contract between the trustee and the beneficiary or beneficiaries.

And so that contract has a lifespan in most States, 20 years. Now what’s cool about that is you can extend the contract for another 20 years. So you can make a non-perpetual trust into somewhat of a perpetual trust by extending it through that time frame and just continually doing that. And so the answer is, it depends on the state you live in. And it can be extended.

Well, I’m going to be teaching you more about this in an upcoming event that’s called Maximum Asset Shield. MaximumAssetShield.com is where you go to learn more about that. There’s a home study course there you can do. As well as coming to the four day live training, where we literally take you soup to nuts through actually transferring properties into trust. First of all, getting your head on straight. Why am I doing this? And then who to choose as trustee. Who to choose a successor trustee. Who to choose as beneficiary. Who to choose a successor beneficiary. Where to side as your trust and why. And all the other entities that might be involved. LLC, corporation, limited partnership that could be beneficiaries of the trust.

There’s lots to learn. And there’s several different types of trusts that can deliver several different types of things. You’re going to learn that as well as you’re going to learn about the Elite Trust. Which is, the bomb! It’s the best trust ever. And so there’s different reasons that different people would do different things. And it just depends on what your particular situation is. So I invite you to check us out. MaximumAssetShield.com and I invite you to come to the live training. Yeah, baby! I hope to see you soon.

A show that's about you that want to work. You're sick and tired of working so hard for your money. You're not ready for your money. Start working harder for you right now. You want that freedom.

It's about creating a legacy. A life that is amazing. A life where you can be a Rippler. Creating a ripple effect in the lives of your family, your community, and ultimately across the world.

And that is the ripple effect I'm here to create. That's why I'm here day after day. In this case, in this podcast, week after week. But this is why I do behind the scenes too. The after day living the life that I love by serving you and thank you so much for allowing me to do that. I appreciate you guys so much for sharing this and having conversation with other people and saying, check out this podcast! It's amazing! Thank you! Like I really appreciate that. I appreciate you guys reaching out saying you've enjoyed listening to this and you're bingeing on it and everything else. It means so much to me that you guys are doing that and I cannot create the ripple effect without you. So thank you for being a part of this.

Here's a real quick reminder. Check out our website, MoneyRipples.com. There's our free ebook Beyond Rice & Beans. Seven Secrets. If you have cash today, if you want to find ways to find more money and be able to use it to create more money with you, as well as other blogs and things like that, you can check out. So check that stuff out of MoneyRipples.com.

So today guys, you know, I was thinking over the last few months about, you know, Dave Ramsey, he's got his little baby steps, right? And I thought, okay, what are my baby steps? And I kind of had my own little thing that I gave you earlier. I think it was last year. Actually I talked about Dave Ramsey, where I agreed and where I disagreed. Right? But I want to give you some basic five steps, you know, five different things you can do. And this is really kind of in order, right? This is really an order.

Although one of these steps applies throughout. But these things are in a particular order because I get so many of you that will reach out, right? And a lot of you are at the place where you say what I call step three, which is Buy Cash Flowing Assets. Where you're at that place, where you need to do that. But I get some of you that aren't ready yet. And you're so anxious. You want to get started and you get impatient, but there's some ultimate steps you gotta take first. And so I want to talk about this wealth building step by step, right?

So without further ado, step number one. Is that Emergency Savings. This is something you need to build up. Now the ultimate goal is to get at least six months of your expenses there. So if you have expenses of $8,000 a month, ideally you want to have roughly almost $50,000 in savings. It's like money that's available. Now I've had several people reach out and say, Chris, I want, I got 10,000 bucks. Where do I invest it? Okay, well, I'll ask them well where you know how much savings you have? 10,000 bucks! That's all I've got great. My advice, save it. They're like, yeah, but how do I make money? I'm like, save it. You will get there way faster. Even though it feels like you're watching grass grow. You'll get there way faster. If you do this step first, because what happens with most Americans is that they get a little bit of money and they think now I can do something with it. And they get desperate. And then they throw it all away. They gamble it away. Whether it be in the market, trying to buy some crazy stupid stock, they go and buy Bitcoin at a high.

They go and they try to buy gold and silver or whatever. But then they don't really make money on that, even though they could, but they don't, you know, are they going to try to do this or that? Right? Or they go throw into some Ponzi scheme. You know, they think, Oh, I heard about this. Listen, people that run Ponzi schemes or run scams like this. They love you. If you're the kind of person that's desperate to take a little bit of money and make some money with it. So, or go gamble in the stock market. That's my, again, that's my favorite. You know where people are like, I'm gonna throw the stock market by these penny stocks and then they lose it all or they lose most of it. Here's the thing, guys. I don't recommend that. You know, what I do suggest is you have Emergency Savings in place.

It gives you a peace of mind. And what I've noticed. And this is true with my own life. Even when I didn't have the money and I had to start building from scratch, right? When I was starting over after recession, I had to start over from scratch. Heck even after a divorce, there was a lot of ways. I felt like I was starting from scratch in some ways. And I'll tell you, the best thing you do is build up those reserves, especially if you're a business owner, but this is true of anybody because otherwise there's a rubber band effect. If you try to not build up your savings right. You just build a little savings and use it to either pay off debt right away, or to invest it immediately. Something comes up that you need that money again.

And then you're charging credit cards. And then you're stuck in this constant cycle. I call it a rubber band effect where the money grows and then it shrinks. And it grows and shrinks. Like stretch and contract, stretch, and contract. And you really don't get any headway. You gotta start here first. Now, do you have to have all six months saved up first? No, not at all. Not before step two, but I would say this, is that you need at least five to 10,000 bucks. If not more in savings before you move, worry about step two. All right. So that's my advice for you. So the whole baby step of save a thousand bucks. No, no. You need at least five to 10,000 bucks in savings. Not touched unless it's for emergencies.

Now step two is, Managed Debt. Not pay off debt, manage it. Now this is where people will try to figure out what should we do? You know, she would pay off this or that or the other, right? Well, here's the thing. First foremost, I'm not about trying to pay off all your debt. If you got mortgages, you usually won't try to pay it off faster. You got car loans, which they're low interest. You probably won't pay those off faster, right? Credit cards. Sure. Maybe we'll do that. And in some other types of loans. But for the most part, we're just trying to manage it. Key thing is using the, why I refer to you as the cash flow index. If you guys remember my formula from last year, I did a podcast called what is the cash flow index? I think, Oh, no. Best way to pay off debt. But the cash flow index is a part of it.

I would go back to last fall and look up that episode. I don't remember the exact number, but I would look that up for sure, because that cash flow index is key to help me decide which one I'm actually pay off first, if I would pay it off at all. But I would use that formula specifically to figure out what should I pay off. So yes, we want to manage it. Do we want to re finance loans and get them to a cheaper payments? You know, right now it could be a great time to refinance your mortgage and maybe even get some money out of it. You know, I have a client right now that just hired me, said, all right, Chris, I'm taking some of your advice from a few months back. I just refinanced my mortgage. They'll save me 420 bucks a month. And now I've got my line of credit open. I've got 150,000 available to use an equity. Now what? Well good. Well that moves the step three.

Step three is, Buy Cash Flowing Assets. That is where it gets to be fun, right? This is where you sort of say, Hey, do we buy real estate? Do we get into syndications or funds? Or what do we do here? That's exactly the kind of strategy you've got to figure out. Again. We want Cash Flowing Assets. Things that pay you on a consistent regular basis. That's stable. That you can count on. That is the kind of investments I love. Right? This is where we don't create more risk or somebody to say, well, this sounds like we're doing some risky stuff. No, we're actually trying to reduce your risk. Why? Because we want multiple streams of income. We don't want you relying on your job. Or your business. And if that's solely the money that's coming in, you were at high risk for failure for financial failure.

And if you weren't scared in the last few months, I don't know what will scare you because the truth is, is that anything could happen at any time. I've had people in industry that say, I thought I was recession proof. You know, I have a client that, you know, he works with sports, you know, like NBA and things like that. He says, Chris, I thought I was recession proof because when people get laid off, they watch sports. You know, that's the one thing that people will escape to during depressions or recessions. And he's like, it affected me with this whole virus, you know? So you never know, that's why we need multiple streams of income, especially regular stable cash flow coming in. And that's where Cash Flowing Investments come in. Again, which ones we do and whatever that depends. We don't want to ever sacrifice the emergency funds that you have.

I mean, often when I get clients, I'll say, great, let's preserve your emergency fund. We might even keep a good chunk of that emergency fund inside the life insurance. So at least it's, tax-free protected from lawsuits and creditors and it's earning much better than point nothing percent in the bank, right? So good. We've got those reserves in place. We've got debt managed. Now we can start Buying Cash Flowing Investments to start increase your income. Now when we get that money from the cash flow and those investments, the bulk of that money we're taking and reinvesting in it, if not all of it. We're taking our money and reinvesting it again to buy more creating what I call this income snowball, right? They were Dave, Ramsey's get his debt snowball, right? We've got the income snowball. It's like what I explained one of my clients, he were able to get his passive income about 35,000 to 40,000 a year.

I said, cool. At 35,000 40,000, we go and buy more investments the next year. It's like, all right, well that bumps us up to about 40,000 to 45,000 next year. Great! Now we take the 40,000 to 45,000 and do it again. And now we're up to 45,000 to 50,000. The next year. We do it again. Now we're about 51,000 to 56,000 a year. And then it kind of compounds on itself, right? Again, just building on that income year, over year, getting it better and better. So that's kind of the goal guys with step three is let's buy these assets that are cash flowing that are creating some real safety for you, right? Again, we don't want to do gambling and into crazy different investments of funds. And there's a lot of, there's a lot of scams out there even right now, right? I'm hoping a lot of these scams will die out with recession a little bit, but they're always there. And then the effect of the recession, they still show up. So you gotta be careful, but there are lots of opportunities to create good stable cash flow. So that's step three.

Step four. And this is actually one that I said, this is one that applies throughout the whole time. This one is, Protect Your Assets. Protect along the way, you know, cover your assets, right. That kind of thing. We always want to protect along the way. So this protection component will actually do throughout. But when you're first starting your initial protection for the most part is basic insurances. And you know, your emergency savings. That's your basic stuff. Now, as time goes on, right? Again, you start to build your assets. We've got to protect more and more. We've got to have corporations in place. If you go in and decide to buy it from step three, right?

You buy more assets, we've got to have things like LLCs and things in place to separate these assets from your personal assets. Right. We've got to make sure you have an estate plan in place and these kinds of things, right? All these things that are there to protect you. Yes. I mean, sure. Life insurance is part of it. But heck make sure you have disability, learn to compare, you know, like these kinds of things that are these types of things to protect, you need to be there. And the bigger the asset, the more you grow them, the more solid that these production strategies have to be. Here's the key point with this. Is that there are a lot of people out there trying to sell you these massively complex plans for the vast majority of you. It's not even applicable, right? When people start saying like, what do you think by doing all these series LLCs and stuff?

I'm like, well, how many, what'd you have for assets? Well, I've got some mutual funds here and I got one in rental property. I'm like, no, you don't need that. I'm not an attorney, but I can tell you that is overkill. You know, most of those kinds of things are for when you have significant amount of assets, then great. You can do that kind of stuff. But for the most part, those things are overkill and just extra costs for little gain. At least, especially in the short term, you know, you can always build upon a plan as you go along, just like any good castle, right? You build the moat, the water moat that goes around it, but the bigger the castle, the bigger, the more it needs to be. And so you can widen that moat more and more and add more fortifications. The things protect you as time goes on.

But initially, most of the time you guys, you just need some basic stuff in place. Some things you almost check off a list and you're good, right? So that's what I mean about protect along the way it will build as time goes on, but you don't have to have the Rolls-Royce of, of protection when you're just starting out. Does that make sense? You know, even if you have a few, even if you have over a million dollars assets, you probably don't need, most of these things are like the Rolls-Royce of asset protection. You're talking more like if you're at least five, 10 million of assets of net worth, now we might be talking about getting a little bit more complex. Makes sense?

All right, now, step five. The last one is, and this one I think is actually one of the most important ones. If you want to have wealth creation continue, is you want to Create a Legacy Along The Way. This legacy is more than just value. This is what I talk about the ripple effect, right? Especially if you talking about through your family and for those around you, you know, what kind of legacy are you creating within your own life? What kind of example are you living in your life? Are you doing more than just making money? What is your life really about? If money were no issue, no longer an issue in your life, what would you spend your time doing? That is something you guys should be focusing on today. If money were no issue, what would you be spending your time doing? Focus on that. You know, what, what kind of things do you want your family to learn? How do you teach them to be wise stewards?

How do you teach them to know the things that you know? Because just giving them money, does them no good. Right? We all heard people that are like trust fund babies that, you know, they ended up losing and blowing it all. Anyways. Why would you work so hard to build something so great, only to have it blown? You know, now you're single. You're like Chris, I'm not going to have a family. I don't care. Great. Then don't worry about it. Maybe you got a favorite charity. Whatever it is. Either way. What's that legacy? What's that next step? What can you create that creates a ripple effect, even beyond the grave? What is your life really going to be about? I'll tell you for me, the asset, their true assets are actually more about us, right? Us, my family. That is the true asset. That is the asset that keeps on generating returns forever for eternity, right?

What am I doing to invest in that? What am I doing to create from there? You know, the money, the punny money part honestly, is not that hard. Once you get down some key principles and some strategies. But allowing that to perpetuate beyond you and to teach true principles to where your family become more than just spoiled jerks for lack of a better term. But they actually become something, someone of real value where they create their own mission. They can actually propel and build upon the wealth. You've already created to do something even greater than you did while you're alive. And that takes generations guys to create something massive on a massive scale, you can do a lot with a little, even in this life with your, with what you can do, but that ripple effect depends upon what you teach. What you can create beyond that lasts beyond you.

This podcast for me is part, a big part of that. You know, even regardless of my family, I know I create a ripple effect that extends beyond these lives. I know that it can impact millions and millions of people. And you guys are part of that. That's why it's so important for you guys to do that. So recap of these five steps for creating wealth. For building wealth step by step.

One. Those emergency reserves, make sure you have that in place at least five to 10,000 to get started, but eventually at least six months of expenses.

Two. Manage your debt, make sure you refer back to that podcast where I refer to the cash flow index. Using that formula to help decide whether you pay them off or not, or to refinance and managing, get those expenses down.

Three. Buy cash flowing assets. You know, creating that passive income so that you're not relying on just your active stream of income. You've got multiple streams coming in that protect you and lie to keep building wealth.

Four. Protect it along the way. All at every step. Even from step one on, you protect yourself and make sure that no one event can take away all your assets.

And then step five is create a legacy. Ensure that it perpetuates beyond the grave that you create a ripple effect that lasts beyond you.

Guys, this is the kind of life that I'm living. That I want to continue to live and make bigger and better. And I challenge you to do the same. I hope you make it a wonderful and prosperous week. And we'll see you later.

Community Impact of Self-Storage



Hi! My name's Fernando Angelucci. I'm The Storage Stud. Today I'd like to talk about the Community Impact of Self Storage in the industry in general. Unlike multifamily or single family investments, where your clientele can come from, you know, up to an hour, hour and a half away. Self storage is much different. It's actually, hyperlocalized. 90 plus percent of your customer base is going to come from your trade area. And depending on the density of the population where you're living, that trade area can be anywhere between one to five miles in radius. Not a huge landmass because self storage is one of those things that is very top of mind, very local, usually someone, when they finally decide to use your facility, they've been driving past it on the way to work for the last five years. And then once they finally have that need, they end up stopping in or giving you a call. Because of that, we have found that is very important to give back to our local communities.

And by doing that, not only it enriches the community around us, which in the end of the day, not only helps us resell the property for a higher value by propping up our community around us. But it also helps with just the general public sentiments about your facility and about what you do for the community. So one of the things that we really like to do is we will go find local activities or local charities that are of importance to the local community. An example of, one of the things we've done in the past is we've sponsored a little league baseball team. And so we went in, we donated so that they can buy supplies and uniforms, things like that. That was huge. Not only from us, helping them get these kids that may have not been able to play the ability to play, but then at the same time now we just, we market ourselves to the actual community members.

Our self storage name is on the uniforms. Their parents are seeing that over and over again when they're doing their laundry or when they're taking their kids to the games or to practice. So it's always going to be kinda in the back of their mind so that in the eventual day that they need storage, they'll remember us as, Oh yeah. I remember Fernando, you know, sponsored my kid's little league team. Let's go take a look at that one, as opposed to going online and searching for the top five self storage facilities in the area. Another thing that we've done before is toy drives. Usually they are organized by some type of community leader or community organization. And it's usually for children that don't have the, you know, the fortune to, to come from a family that can afford these kind of disposable income type products, you know. Cars and toys and video games and things like that. So we'll donate to these toy drives. So that come Christmas time, they'll be able to open something underneath the Christmas tree, just like some of their more affluent friends.

We've done food drives as well. We have done outreach. We have worked with charities and donated one or two of our empty units for the charities to use. Either to use as a area where someone can drop off goods that they're donating, or even as just additional storage, because they don't have it in their office or maybe their office is too small. These are all things that I have found really help. Not only make us feel good about what we're doing. Business not, is not always about the bottom line. It's not always about making the most money possible. What we found is that when you support your community and when you, when you volunteer and when you donate, these are things that really bring us the most self fulfillment out there.

You know, money is just money and whether you have more of it or less of it, you can always make more, or less, then spend it. But when you're changing people's lives and making an impact in the communities that support you by, you know, supporting them back, that we have found that that's been some of the best things that we've done with the business. And it's, it's all non-monetary.
