Advanta IRA Hosts Nationwide Webinars: Tips for Self-Directed Roth IRAs

• 

While acquiring alternative investments can be as easy as it sounds using self-directed Roth IRAs, we advise clients to be fully educated in the benefits and risks involved.

Tampa, Florida (PRWEB) May 13, 2014

Investors who self-direct have access to a large pool of alternative investments that include real estate, private notes and mortgages, precious metals, timber, oil and gas opportunities…and much more. A Roth IRA offers unique benefits that other accounts do not. When an individual self-directs this type of account, the benefits can become even more powerful in terms of financial security in the golden years.

The whole idea behind self-directed plans is that the account owners gain total control of their own investment choices by choosing assets they know and understand…at their own pace and comfort level. For example, if one knows a lot about precious metals, gold and silver might be profitable assets. Those savvy in the foreign exchange market or futures trading may find their niche there. Know a lot about real estate or construction? Buying and selling residential and commercial property may garner tidy returns. Want to purchase a business on a tropical island to build retirement income? That is possible, as well, if an individual is well versed in the aspects involved.

“While acquiring alternative investments can be as easy as it sounds using self-directed Roth IRAs, we advise clients to be fully educated in the benefits and risks involved,” says Jack Callahan, managing partner of Advanta IRA in Largo, Florida and Atlanta, Georgia. With knowledge, these accounts become more understood allowing both sophisticated and beginning investors to make their own decisions that can potentially boost the earnings of their retirement portfolios.

“We do not offer advice, but we can and do teach people how these accounts work and how many alternative investment opportunities exist when one chooses to control their own investment funds,” says Callahan. Advanta IRA is holding this webinar designed to educate investors of all levels on the benefits of self-directed investment accounts.
