They offer far more flexibility, collaboration, and tax efficiency than traditional public or private pensions. Up to 50% of an SSAS pension pot can be loaned back to your own company for investment (including property). You can also lend to others. Public and private pensions are far more at risk than people realise. You can use a SSAS in 3 ways to minimise the impact of Inheritance Tax. BEST MOMENTS "It´s gone up a million quid in eight years through SaaS." "Check this out - this can be a game changer, not just for your life, but the lives of the next generation." “When you put a number of pots together, you get more buying power, which means you've got more deal-making creativity at your disposal." “I set up a SaaS because I could take back control.” “Your own wealth is protecting itself.” EPISODE RESOURCES Click here to receive the Free SSAS Pension resources from WealthBuilders: https://www.wealthbuilders.co.uk/progressive-podcast Website - https://www.wealthbuilders.co.uk/ Kevin's LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevinjwhelan/ WealthBuilders Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/WealthbuildersUK WealthBuilders Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/wealthbuilderstogether/ WealthBuilders LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/wealthbuilderstogether WealthBuilders YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@wealthbuildersuk VALUABLE RESOURCES MSOPI – Multiple Streams of Income: https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Sean Fitzpatrick is a property investor, educator, and the Face of Progressive Property.
