The Straightforward System: Empower Yourself to Answer Every Money Question

$1,495.00

Learn everything you need to know to answer any money question with clarity and confidence now and in the future.

Most of us lack a meaningful framework for making decisions about money. Whatever your question or questions, Straightforward will teach you how to make context-specific money decisions in alignment with your values and implement them efficiently.

The Straightforward System begins with a comprehensive financial document and personal-profile review to help you understand your global financial picture, the most pressing questions that bring you to Straightforward, and identify risks and opportunities you might not have considered.

Straightforward then gives you a crash course on everything you need to optimize your present and future financial life.

Topics covered include:

  • How you can manage your investments yourself at the lowest cost in just a few minutes per year, as well as the research behind the most successful strategies,

  • How you can optimize your employment or business opportunities in the context of your values and your unique financial universe,

  • How you can take advantage of tax-minimization and planning strategies,

  • How you can strategize for retirement,

  • How you can manage asset-protection risks and opportunities, including the utility of different types of insurance for your situation, as well as wills, trusts, and estates strategies to protect yourself from creditors and other risks (Disclaimer: Ross Berlin is an attorney licensed in Florida and can provide professional legal services separately depending on your needs),

  • Legacy and estate planning to ensure your assets are transferred to your heirs according to your wishes with the lowest administrative burden and at the lowest cost.

Straightforward will give you context-specific guidance and ongoing resources so you can make your own well-informed decisions now and in the future. Eliminate the exorbitant recurring costs of traditional money management, and keep more wealth for the people and causes you care about. 

How it works:

Your purchase entitles you to:

1. An initial document review by Straightforward to help you understand everything about your financial picture,

2. An initial educational-resource package, as necessary depending on the question or questions that bring you to Straightforward,

3. A 90-minute video call to discuss all aspects of your financial questions and give you the knowledge and resources you need to answer them yourself,

4. Up to one hour of follow-up research based on information learned during the call as well as the delivery of additional educational resources, as needed,

5. A one-page write-up of all the action items you decide to take with step-by-step implementation instructions and a 30-minute wrap-up call to address any questions concerning the write-up.

Bonus: 40% discount on as-needed, hourly follow-up consultations for you and your heirs.
