In this episode of Real Money Talks, Loral Langemeier shares a powerful Retirement Income Strategy for teachers and retirees who want more than traditional retirement accounts. Instead of letting a 403(b) sit in low-growth investments, Loral explains how a smarter Retirement Income Strategy can include self-directed investing, real estate, and business ownership to build long-term wealth and cash flow.

Many retirees run out of money too early so adding income streams like vending machines, food trucks, tutoring, or property management can strengthen a Retirement Income Strategy while protecting retirement assets.

If you’re earning well but keeping less than you should, this episode will show you ho...

This episode walks through how a construction wealth strategy works...

A listener from Cleveland asks Loral two big questions:

Can college tuition be put through a business and paid for before taxes?

Can an SBA loan help reduce personal liability?

Loral’s answer is clear: yes, but it’s all tax strategy, and it has to be done precisely. She explains that tuition can be paid through a business only when the student’s education aligns with the company’s purpose and when the proper corporate resolutions and legal documentation are in place.
