What can you do to stay in the air and stop furloughs from making you feel financially flightless?
Many pilots are unaware of how the buildings they fly over from 36,000 feet can serve as a source of passive income.
Real estate can help you take control of your financial success WHILE on autopilot.
Many pilots are also unaware of this unprecedented golden opportunity that the US government is granting them. Let me explain…
Chances are, your 401(k) has been getting FREE money from your company in the form of a “match“.
The Fed is allowing you to use it NOW instead of waiting till you’re retired.
That’s right. Free CAPITAL now to get your investing machine in the air.
It sounds too good to be true, right?

P.S. As you know, even the best pilots never fly alone.
Which is why I’m here to help you navigate through this!
Let’s Recap This Easy Process While There Is Still Time
- Call up your 401(k) administrator and ask them how to initiate a “Coronavirus-related distribution” and ask them how much you have “vested” in the account.
- Complete their required forms. IMPORTANT: DO NOT ELECT TO WITHHOLD ANY FEDERAL INCOME TAX.
- Watch my video explaining the advantages of a Solo 401(k) plan.
Open up a Self-Directed IRA or Solo 401(k) through the custodian of your choice. Here are a few to get you started.
- Your “indirect rollover check” will be mailed to you. Deposit it into your new Self-Directed IRA or Solo 401(k) account. For direct deposit, look for the amount in your checking account and write a check for this amount to your new Self-Directed IRA or Solo 401(k) custodian.
- Keep a copy of the 1099-R that was mailed to you. You will give this to your accountant.
- Congratulations! You are now a savvy individual with complete control of your retirement money and can invest in ANYTHING including your new found opportunity.
