My experience with Strongbrook has been life changing in many ways. An amazing Strongbrook team has helped me get a game plan for early retirement from my full-time job, acquire investment properties, implement a residual income, and make empowering changes in my financial life, to the point where I am excited for my future. I have participated in the mentoring and Conscious Creator programs which have given me tools to modify my life in very empowering ways. I have walked on fire! The Strongbrook team has provided some of the very best customer service I have ever received from any business/company I have interacted with. My entire family and a large portion of my extended family have all joined Strongbrook and our lives are better because of it. 
I presently have purchased 3 investment properties and I am working with my project manager to increase that by two more in the next few months. I have understood for many years that real estate is one of the best vehicles for investing and for residual income. For 19 years I invested on my own in college housing condominiums. I even bought my first property before purchasing my first car. I learned a lot from that, and I worked very hard, but financially it didn't bring me the success I hoped it would. In my first 2 years with Strongbrook, I have had by far more success with my real estate investing than I had in 19 years of doing it on my own. And with Strongbrook, I have had a team of experts who have guided me and supported me through the process, and they've done most of the work for me. It's literally been easy. I'm very grateful to Strongbrook, and I can't recommend them enough! I am in discussions with my project manager about acquiring two more properties in the next several months. I am taking advantage of the life insurance, LLC and Estate Planning programs that Strongbrook offers, and I'm setting things up in a very well designed manner for my future. I'm most excited about having a team there to guide me, to alert me to opportunities, and to assist me. They win if I win. I have never felt any small amount of pressure from my team, rather, they ask me questions and want to know what my goals are, and they do well to help me fulfill them. It has been my experience that Strongbrook attracts positive, good quality people. Everyone I have met within the Strongbrook system, staff and clients, are amazing and positive people. Article: Using Retirement Assets to Invest in Real Estate There's a little known fact about traditional retirement accounts – they can be used to invest directly in real estate! It's not surprising that the financial industry has kept this secret in the dark; most retirement custodians make their living on the commissions they make whenever they buy or sell investment tools within your retirement account. Because the vast majority of financial advisors are not experienced with investing in real estate, most money managers discount this powerful and conservative retirement tool. Let's see how Strongbrook's real estate strategies stack up to other options for building wealth: 30-Year Annualized Returns by Asset Class  Based on this chart, you can see that Strongbrook's growth strategy has the potential to outpace typical returns in other types of traditional investments. The particular strategy demonstrated here is a combination of the cash flow and growth strategies. For more details about this strategy and rates of return, see Strongbrook's Game Plan Framework document. You can see that real estate done the right way can be a powerful investment option to build wealth and prepare for retirement. Retirement accounts have two basic options to invest in real estate. Either they can buy the property outright (no mortgage), or they can invest in a business that can obtain financing for real estate. These options are permissible under IRS regulations involving retirement accounts. While investing in real estate is a permissible option for retirement accounts, most custodians are not equipped to facilitate these types of transactions. If you already have an IRA or ROTH IRA, ask your current custodian if they have options for directing your IRA into individual real estate purchases (as opposed to REITs or real estate funds). Remember unlike a 401k, an IRA or a ROTH IRA is your money and if your current custodian is not serving you effectively, you have the right to move your assets to one that will. | | | | Articles IBD News - Did You Know? - Special Live and Livestreamed Opportunity Presentation - Weekly Events - IBD Mindset Minute: Using the Mind to Improve Your Personal Life Mentor Network Updates - Are Your Relationships All They Could Be?

Click here | | IBD Mindset Minute  Using the Mind to Improve Your Personal Life Using your mind to improve personal life is a great start to achieving. When you use your mind, you set out to gain qualities that guide you in the right direction. To use your mind to improve your life consider: - Commitments
- Skills
- Priorities
- Failure
- Saying no
- Rules
- Trial rides
Commitments: We all have commitments. Commitments is a part of life. When you have commitments, you enter into promises that you will get something done. Start making commitments to you. I commit to change habits that hinder me from achieving my goals, or improving my personal life. Skills: Evaluate your skills to see how you can use them to better your life. While you are evaluating your skills, look for new skills. Reach deep inside you, accept the discomforts, fears, or things you do not like, look past them and find new skills. Priorities: Do you have your priorities straight? Do you have all your plans in perspective. Re-evaluate your plans to make sure that you are on the right path to improve your personal life. If you notice areas you can improve, donít be afraid to take action. Taking action is the last step you will take in anything you do that helps to improve your life. Failure: How do you view failure? Failure upside down is achievement. Failure is common and happens to all us daily. Failure helps us to learn how to develop and grow into a better person. If you sit around stressing failure, then you are heading nowhere quick. Failure is a part of life. You have failure around you, in you, and in your future. Learn from your failures, accept your blame and move to make things better for you. Saying no: People hear the word no and fear it. No is not a rejection, rather no is a positive action you take to spare your future. When you say no I am not going to the bar, you are saying I have better things to do than waste my time in a building filled with drunks. Sometimes you have to tell someone you love no. For instance, you may have to tell your mate no when he or she asks you to watch television when you know you have to study. Donít let your mate hold you back. It is ok to say no. Rules: We all follow rules. Rules is a part of life, which sometimes the rules are hard to digest. You have to learn to open up your passageway and digest them anyway unless you are willing to stand up and protest in a positive way. People complaining about rules they donít like and not taking action is wasting everyoneís time. You have the power, yet it takes you to use that power. Trial rides: Life is filled with trial rides. Everyday we walk out our door we are on a trial ride. Each day we have good trials and bad trials. How do you handle trials? If you are willing to take risks in life, likely you handle trials well. On the other hand, if you fear changes, then you will need to find a way to deal with the trials in life. Unfortunately, too many people deal with these trials by drinking excessively or drugging. Donít be one of these people. You have many options in life. Good options and bad options will come your very each day. Sometimes you will choose bad options, yet when you make mistakes, donít dwell rather pull up your resources to see how you could have done things different, and do it different the next time.
