- Income TaxDid you know that it is possible that the government is named as a beneficiary on a very large percentage of your assets? If you have managed to accumulate some wealth during your lifetime that may very well be the case. Many people are unaware of how much the government’s estate tax and income tax takes from people when they die. The government will take this money with absolutely no concern for the wishes of the deceased. At The Winning Edge Financial Group in Clifton NJ, WE can show you strategies that will help prevent this from happening. At The Winning Edge we use our knowledge of the estate tax laws to work hard for you to make sure that your hard earned assets go where you decide and not to the government. Most people think that the Estate Tax only affects the very wealthy. Unfortunately, that is not always the case. Depending on the types of assets you or a family member own at the time of death, the beneficiaries can lose most of the estate. In fact, between income taxes and estate taxes the family can lose almost the entire estate. It almost seems impossible but it is often true. Beneficiaries can easily make uninformed decisions when combining a lack of understanding tax laws and the emotional strain people face during a period of grief. These choices can cause devastating financial results that could have been avoided with proper planning and professional guidance.
- Investment ManagementMany people would like to have a successful investment portfolio but don’t have the slightest clue where to begin. The next big hurdle is to find someone to trust with their money. At the Winning Edge Financial Group in Clifton, NJ we strive to solve both those concerns. There are so many investment planning options that exist, so naturally there is much confusion finding the one that is right for you. It is important to feel confident that the financial planning company you choose is one you can trust to put your best interests first and not the company’s bottom line. With so many companies more worried about how much commission they will earn on a specific product or course of action it is easy to understand how hard it is to put your faith in any advisor.

On this website you will find many free informative videos that will help you understand who we are and how we can help you to reach your goals.

I think it will help you to decide that we are the company you would like to work with. We would welcome the opportunity to help you on your journey “Toward A Bright Financial Future.”
- Financial PlanningSimply select all options that you want to simulate and the tool will solve for the missing piece of information. For example you can select $500 per month as an investment, pick a number of years and then a final amount that you would like to have in the future. Then you can solve for what rate of return you would need to reach that goal. Of course this tool is not meant to simulate any particular investment strategy. It is only meant to give you an idea of what is possible with various investment amounts at varying rates of return. For a complete list of financial planning options more geared to investment results and the risk associated with each strategy you must schedule an interview. We will be happy to work with you to develop a personalized plan using our proprietary Winning Edge 6-step financial planning process.
