R.E. Branch, M. D.
15150 Preston Road Suite 300
Dallas, TX 75248
Ph: 214-686-5877
 
With a lifelong joy of learning and helping others following a traditional career as an American Board Certified Specialty Surgeon R.E. has for a number of years pioneered (as has the American Medical Association and a number of other well recognized and respected national medical organizations) the use of the Internet to improve the provision of efficient and high quality medical care when appropriate via the World Wide Web.

He has currently developed (in addition to his financial advisory activities) an on-line medically supervised weight loss web site at www.AbsolutelyThin.com in helping his patients overcome overweight and obesity problems.

Along the way he became interested in helping others with their financial affairs and after a course of study followed by passing a written examination he obtained a Texas Insurance license in addition to his Texas Medical License.

He has expanded his financial planning expertise by obtaining two additional financial planning designations (Certified Retirement Financial Advisor as well as a Certified Senior Advisor) following additional courses of study related to advising clients how to better manage their financial affairs as they travel through the life experience and helps them to be in a better financial position to enjoy their years of retirement.

R.E. has taken the required training and he has passed a written examination given by the Texas Department of Insurance to earn a Texas General Lines License.

In order to fulfill his Continuing Education requirements from the Texas Department of Insurance R.E. has taken courses and passed written examinations approved by the Texas Department of Insurance in the following areas related to Retirement and Retirement Financial Planning:

1. Agent and Ethics
2 Essentials of Pension Planning
3. Retirement Income Distributions
4. Annuities in the Financial Planning Process
5. Pension, 401 (k), and Keough Plans
6. Advanced IRA Rollover & Distribution Expert
Training
7. The Abts Institute for Estate Preservation
Advanced Institute

as well as courses given by the American Academy of Estate Planning Attorneys.

Another area of great interest to R.E. is helping his clients keep their assets and financial net worth intact from generation to succeeding generation by helping his clients avoid the 45% estate tax that applies (as of this date-February 2008-it is scheduled to go
up over the next few years) to client's estates when they die with an estate in excess of $2,000,000.00.

Any estate amount over $2,000,000.00 is taxedby the Internal Revenue Service at the 45% rateand the tax is due to be paid no later than 9 months after the estate is settled.

I learned at a recent insurance continuing education meeting that there around 3% (and rising as inflation occurs) of settled estates
that have net assets in their estate to whichthe 45% estate tax applies and only 50% of the surviving familes are even aware of the tax and the huge tax liability that the IRS is relentless
in collecting from the settled estate within 9 months.

For those families that have not planned for this tax contingency they are often caught in a severe tax bind and they must sell off treasured family assets at a tremendous discount to pay the
estate tax which (if not planned for the IRS WILL collect from the estate).

The good news is that by careful estate planning the huge estate taxes can be avoided completely.

R.E. has completed estate tax avoidance courses approved by the Texas Department of Insurance to help his clients (with planning and networking with a close circle of other licensed and well qualified estate planning professionals) that enable those clients who follow his directions avoid this huge tax completely and at virtually
no net cost!!

The continuing education courses R.E. has recently completed in the area of estate planning to avoid the huge estate tax that will apply to clients with net worths over $2.000.000.00 (sadly only half-50%- of the families to which this onerous tax will apply are even aware of it!!!)
are:

1. Estate Planning:Pass It On
2. Planning for the Inevitable: Death and Taxes
3. Lifetime Gifts and Transfers
4. Trusts-Buy-Sell Agreements & Other Estate
Planning Techniques.
5. R.E. has recently become a licensee of the patent pending "Immediate Legacy" program that allows charitable
minded supporters of national and local charities and other
501(c)3 organizations to donate to charities that they
support at no net cost to the charitable supporter and
to receive a significant income tax deduction at the same time.

For more information regarding this new charitable fund raising
strategy at no net cost to the charity supporter contact R.E.
at 214-686-5877 or email him at rbranchmd@msn.com.

R.E. enjoys an active family life, is the father of two wonderful sons who are professional musicians, and enjoys a good game of golf with friends when he is not working and good jokes.

R.E. stays up to date with the latest strategies for maximizing retirement income and financial security through regular continuing education courses and written examinations regulated by the Texas Department of Insurance as well as networking his clients with his many other friends with specialized areas of financial planning expertise and asset protection strategies and techniques.

R.E. networks with other financial and estate planning colleagues with areas of special financial expertise to help his clients

R.E. uses a variety of retirement plan investment options along with excellent and extremely safe insurance products including annuities and life settlements to help his clients enjoy financial security during the active working lives as well as during their years of enjoying the fruits of the life work during financially safe and secure years of retirement.

He enjoys helping others and is available by appointment by calling 214-686-5877, 214-435-7028 or 972-934-3231.

R. E. is also an active e-mailer whose email address is rbranchmd@msn.com and welcomes correspondence from those seeking safe financial investment advice and planning for many long enjoyable, and financially secure years of retirement once his clients complete their working years.

With superb analytical skills and cutting edge financial strategies combined with creative approaches to financial security that are unique and fundamentally sound R. E. would welcome a complementary consultation with you to review your life goals and offer suggestions and recommendations for your consideration that will help you secure that they are accomplished.

What distinguishes our practice from most, is that we focus on transferred money (as opposed to only on accumulated accounts) which is money that people are transferring away unknowingly and unnecessarily. Those dollars, once recaptured and invested, make huge differences in securing and improving both current and future lifestyle.

Recently introduced to the public and to financial professionals around the country - The M.I.N.D. Risk Management System, a proprietary risk management system designed to reduce risk, reduce taxes and increase portfolio income. Our system focuses on proper diversification and avoids the 3 most common mistakes that can ruin your retirement. See our dedicated website - www.mindriskmanagement.com for additional information on "How to receive a portfolio risk score".

IRA distribution planning seminars are offered periodically because of the tremendous confusion and tax loss due to inappropriate methods of IRA distributions. Most people get it right in the accumulation stages of building their wealth, but the real problem seems to develop in the distribution stages. Millions of dollars are lost each year due to improper or no planning during this critical distribution stage.

Professional money management using an active money management strategy is used to reduce the normal volatility of investing in stocks and mutual funds. Our money management system is designed to have the opportunity to make money in both bull and bear markets with substantially reduced volatility. Since the majority of stocks follow the market, up and down, it does make sense to understand the direction of the market and to position your portfolio accordingly.

Marta Nystrom

Santa Fe, NM 87507
Ph: 505-473-9572
 
Marta Nystrom is a financial educator, independent life and health insurance broker and independent investor advisor rep. Marta takes a holistic approach to working with her retired and soon-to-be-retired clients, delving into their values, goals, tax situation, estate plan and overall financial picture, especially with a view towards making sure her clients don�t run out of money before the end of their lives.


Marta�s approach to financial planning is similar to her approach to strategic planning, which she did for a number of years for real estate boards around the state of New Mexico before entering the financial services arena.


Formerly affiliated as a broker with Dain Rauscher, she gravitated to the investment advisory services field, which she felt was more compatible with her goal of always seeking to act in the client�s best interest. Her clients vary from business owners, attorneys, engineers, and scientists, to homemakers, teachers, real estate professionals and others. What they have in common as her clients is a desire to work with a professional who is accessible, ethical, caring, and professional and who seeks to empower them through knowledge and regular communication while at the same time managing their portfolios with the highest degree of fiduciary responsibility.


Marta is a Certified Retirement Financial Advisor (CRFA) and Certified Senior Advisor (CSA), who graduated Phi Beta Kappa, cum Laude, from the University of Colorado in 1976. She has been a resident of New Mexico since 1990, where she has served as a volunteer for numerous non-profit organizations, including the New Mexico Project for Financial Literacy and the New Mexico Coalition for Financial Education.

“Sleep Well At Night” or “SWAN” is the goal behind the financial plans Matt designs for his clients. As a financial advisor with over 23 years of experience helping clients protect and grow their assets, Matt is focused on the financial challenges that face retirees and pre-retirees in today’s ever changing economy. Designing financial plans which afford clients to live the retirement they had envisioned throughout their careers, without the risk and worry of market fluctuations, inflation pressures, and running out of money during their lifetime is the foundation of his planning.

Drawing from a vast background in the retirement planning arena, Matt’s professionalism and experience broadens the financial expertise of PKS Advisors. In a vocation of continuous education Matt began his career in 1986 with New York Life Insurance Co. and NYLife securities. In an effort to further deepen his knowledge, expertise and services he could provide his clients, Matt became an independent advisor in 1993 focusing exclusively on retirement planning.

In an age of specialization, financial professionals recommend; “finding a financial advisor educated and specializing in retirement planning is analogous to using a Cardiologist to treat your heart condition compared to your General Practitioner”. “You could use any financial professional to assist you in retirement, however to deal with issues as critical and specific as planning your retirement we recommend a specialist”.

Matt is a Certified Retirement Financial Advisor, CRFA™ having successfully completed an intensive and thorough course qualifying him as a specialist in retirement planning. Matt also holds a designation as a Registered Financial Consultant, RFC, from the International Association of Financial Consultants. Matt is a licensed insurance agent, securities representative and an Independent Trust Consultant to Summit Trust Co., Private Client Services

Aside from his work as a financial advisor Matt is most proud of the opportunity he had in 2003 to pursue a longtime dream of his, design and teach a high school class he called “Life Skills”. Recognizing the need to educate high school students on basic Life and Financial skills necessary for the “real world”, Matt got the opportunity to teach his course at an inner-city Baltimore school, Our Lady of the Rosary High School. Matt recalls that year as perhaps the most enriching time of his life.
