SUMMARY:
Adding an extra $1 million to your retirement account through better investing is nice, but having a better investing approach is not just about the money.
The peace of mind that comes from knowing that your money will be protected during stock market crashes may be more important the money.
Financial stress is one of the most powerful forms of stress. Financial worries are persistent.
A better investing system and approach offers peace of mind and the gift of more time.
Better investing should add as much as a million dollars or more to most people’s retirement accounts over their working life.
But money is just pieces of paper or digits on a statement after all.
The additional money that you gain from investing your 401K the right way will lead to a more comfortable and secure retirement for you and your family. That is great but there are many other benefits from having a better way to invest your savings. And these other benefits can help you out now, not just when your reach age 65.
Financial stress is one of the most powerful forms of stress. Financial worries are persistent, always hanging over your head. Financial stress can affect all areas of your life. It can lead to marital problems. It can affect your work performance.
Imagine how much better your life would be if you weren’t constantly in fear of the next stock market crash. If you’ve lived through many of these financial crises like me, you know how painful it can be to watch your life savings drop by 40% or 50% in a short period of time. Like any traumatic experience, the fear changes you. It can and does affect your physical health.

If you have an investing system that is designed to protect your hard-earned savings in a market collapse, you don’t have to live with the fear of catastrophe hanging over your head. Knowing that your money is safe and that it is protected frees you up to live your best life. Having more confidence in your financial future leads to more optimism and positivity and peace of mind.
Many of our customers say that this is the best part of our investing system. And this is what I want most of all for our customers – a better life. You may find it hard to believe coming from an investment expert, but I don’t care that much about money. I prefer to live a simple life and I am not very materialistic. I like the security and the independence that money can provide and the peace of mind, but I care very little for the “stuff” that it provides.
Many of the customers appreciate the extra time they gain from using our system. Working a full-time job and living a full life outside of work doesn’t leave much time for studying the financial markets. They love the fact that we tell them exactly what to do on an ongoing basis and we summarize the important and relevant financial news for them.
Time is much more valuable than money.
I talk about money and finance all the time, but I want you to have these other more valuable benefits too.
If you want all these benefits for yourself, check out Market Signals here.
Happy Investing,
Phil
