Income Coaching

Services & Pricing

With The Coach, the long term goal is to help you transition from low income production to income independence. In a series of one hour meetings, we discuss your goals and objectives, review existing portfolios, develop an action plan, and arrange for follow up Q & A and performance evaluation meetings.

The coaching session is an opportunity to tap into Steve’s insights with an in-depth, single hour virtual meeting. Single-session coaching is useful for investors with some knowledge of markets who plan to primarily DIY their own portfolios, but who need some initial guidance on how to maximize income.

It may also be the moment you determine that you are just too busy to take on the responsibility yourself - a really important conclusion. Many have decided to have a professional get them started for a year or so before taking over the management duties on their own.

The one-on-one coaching sessions are perfect for:

  • Working professionals looking to plan well for retirement.
  • Retirees seeking expertise on how to increase their income.
  • Investors who need personalized advice on transitioning from traditional investing into CEFs.
  • financial professionals who want to provide their clients with more spending money in retirement.

WHAT’S INCLUDED: 

Your 1-hour coaching session includes the most recent month’s set of Selection Universes (a $225 value). These will be used in the session to discuss CEF characteristics and distribution results.

If you’ve been hesitant to dive into income-focused investing on your own, work with Steve to get your CEF portfolio started off in the right direction. Your 1-hour session investment is just $365–a tremendous value when you consider the cost of the Selection Universes, and the answers you'll get to as many transition related questions as you can come up with.

Grow Your Income; Minimize Risk!

  • All of our one hour meetings are $365. They focus on goal identification, Q & A about strategies used, preliminary portfolio review, and action assessment. Zoom if you wish, as many people as you want.
  • We each will have homework assignments for the next session, based upon each separate action plan we develop. You will determine if any additional meetings are necessary. Clients often want to touch base a second or third time for a progress appraisal or performance analysis. There is no second session requirement.
  • Portfolio Review Sessions. Any portfolio, any securities inside, Steve will do a deep dive on your holdings and give you his opinion on Quality, Diversification, Income Production and Profit Taking. That's right. The big four risk minimizers and your portfolio. Find out how you are doing, all your portfolios, just $225..
  • Annual Retainer Package: All of the above, ten coaching and/or portfolio review meetings, a full year's worth of selection universes, occasional telephone calls, text messages and emails. Just $3,250. You save over $1,000.
  • Private one-on-one Q & A Sessions going anywhere you want with regards to "Retirement Money Secrets", Facebook discussion groups, strategy, process, etc. without any personal or portfolio details involved. Just $195 for an hour of information...

Nothing discussed with or by the coach should ever be taken as either accounting or legal advice of any kind.

Request Additional Information

Income coaching may involve discussions of individual securities, but no such discussions are ever intended to be investment recommendations of any kind. Coaching clients are expected to do their own research and due diligence, and to be totally responsible for the actual decisions that they make.
