Q

A. Pay yourself 1st #1 (Bills)

A

One of the first things that caught Robert Kiyosaki’s attention at an early age, is how differently his “2 Dads paid their bills. This Poor dad paid everybody else first (his bills), mortgage, utilities etc and whatever little crumbs he had left over at the end of the month he would save (pay himself), and many months he didn’t have any money left over to save. this is the way that most (97%) of the population handles their bill paying.

25
Q

Pay your self 1st #2 (Opposite)

A

Rich dad did the exact opposite. The first thing he would do when he got paid was put 10% aside in to a savings account ( paying himself first), and then he would use what was left to pay all his bills.

26
Q

Pay Yourself 1st #4 (Astounded)

A

Robert was astounded at this concept, he told Rich dad “Are you saying don’t pay your bills on time?”, Rich dad said, “No, I’m not saying that at all, I believe in paying all your bills on time, But I think its most important to pay yourself first”.

27
Q

Pay yourself 1st #5 (I’m Crazy)

A

Robert then asked “ What if you don’t have any money left at the end of the month?” and Rich dad said, “Good Question, Who do you think would scream louder if they didn’t get paid, me or my creditors?” and Robert said, “Your creditors of course”. “Right” said Rich dad, “ and I don’t like to be screamed at by my creditors, and there was plenty of months, especially when I was pretty broke and just starting out where I didn’t have enough money to pay my creditors, even now there are months where my accountants think I’m crazy for paying myself first when all they can see is that I don’t have enough money to get all my bills paid.

28
Q

Pay yourself 1st #4 (Whatever It Takes)

A

“So what do you do when you don’t have enough money at the end of the month?” asked Robert. “ Simple!”, Rich dad said. “On months I ran out of money before paying my bills, I would do what ever it takes to get them paid. I would work extra hours, Ive mowed lawns, washed cars, thought of a way to make a little extra in my business, I’ve even started another business, basically what ever it takes!”

29
Q

Pay Yourself 1st #8 (Little By Little)

A

This is how Rich dad got started, saving little by little and then he had enough to buy his first small investment property and then another and another, very simple concept and very powerful.

Let me show you something ( Point to cash value, ROP etc)

30
Q

Pay Your Self 1st #9 (Cash Value)

A

See, with this program our clients are not just spending money, they are paying themselves first, this is the cash value, money they get back if they don’t want or need the coverage anymore.

31
Q

Pay Yourself Up 1st #10 (Client)

A

Our clients can use this money for anything they want, buy their first investment property, invest, help with retirement, college fund, or even a nice vacation!

32
Q

Pay yourself 1st #11 (Cool)

A

Cool right?! (Use your language)

Any Questions? Make sense? Simple right? (Don’t proceed until both agree)

33
Q

Pay Yourself 1st #12 (Rule #1)

A

This leads me to the 2nd Simple and easy concept Rich dad taught Robert, Which Rich Dad referred to as “Rule #1”. He said this 1 concept is so simple, yet so powerful, that doing this alone would make you rich.

34
Q

Assets vs Liabilities #1 (Assets)

A

Rich dad taught Robert that while the rich were buying assets, the poor and the middle class spent their money on liabilities. Rich dad said assets are things you put your money into that keep their value or increases in value.

35
Q

Assets vs. Liabilities #2 (Assets)

A

Liabilities are things where you put your money in and your money goes down in value and many times disappears altogether.

36
Q

Assets vs Liabilities #3 (Owning)

A

an easy way to explain it is Owning vs renting your home. Now, Owning your home might cost a little more on a monthly basis, however, down the road you have an asset that goes up in value.

37
Q

Assets Vs Liabilities #4 (Renting)

A

Renting a home might be a little less per month, but, when you are done you’re left with nothing. Zero to show for it. Rich dad does have an interesting take on owning your own home. we’ll talk about that next time we meet (future pacing).

  1. (Do simple paper illustration) to show 2 kinds of insurance
38
Q

Assets vs Liabilities #5 (Grows)

A

So, what’s great about this simple program is that’s an asset. As our clients set money aside every month, their asset grows and grows and grows, and at the end, our clients can use the cash for whatever they want, retirement, college for the kids or just keep growing it and they can access it whenever they want.

39
Q

Assets vs Liabilities #6 (Tax-Deferred)

A

It even grows tax-deferred, meaning you don’t have to pay taxes on it as you do at the bank, but I’ll get back to that part in a second…

40
Q

Assets vs Liabilities #4 (Term)

A

The Programs that a lot of people out there have, pay and pay and pay, and at the end of their term, it’s over, they are left with nothing! Zero! Which makes it a liability.

41
Q

Assets vs Liabilities #8 (Equal)

A

So let me ask you, all things being equal, How would you rather take care of your Insurance, Like Rich Dad, Or poor Dad? Right

42
Q

Assets vs Liabilities #9 (3rd)

A

This leads me to the 3rd and final Simple and easy concept,

43
Q

It’s not what you earn, it’s what you keep. #1 (Remember)

A

Remember, I shared with you that the money our clients set aside grows without paying any taxes on the profits? This makes a huge difference!

44
Q

Its not what you earn, its what you keep #2 (January)

A

Rich dad talked to Robert about how the average American works from January to May to pay taxes, that’s a lot of work, it’s almost half the year.

45
Q

Its not what you earn its what you keep #3 (Government)

A

he taught Robert that the government had created certain investments, that help everyday Americans grow their savings without having to pay a bunch of taxes on it.

46
Q

It’s not what you earn, it’s what you keep. #4 (Bank)

A

This program is exactly that. As our client, the money you set aside every month grows without paying taxes on that growth like you would in a bank.

47
Q

It’s not what you earn, it is what you keep #5 (Forbid)

A

God forbid, if something happens to you, all the money is paid to your family 100% tax-free.

48
Q

It’s not what you earn its what you keep #6 (Best Part)

A

And, the best part is that of course you live a long healthy life and at the end, at retirement, you can take your money out Tax-free (the point at total cash value)(be specific to your plan)

49
Q

Monthly investment confirmation and commitment #1 (Aside)

A

So, let me ask, What is an amount you can set aside on a monthly basis to “pay yourself first”, knowing that the more you put in now, the more cash you will have saved up when you need it? (Go down from original quote in small increments, $50, $100 depending on how big quote was)

50
Q

Monthly investment confirmation and commitment #2 (Agreement)

A

Example-Can you do $900? $800? $700? You tell me. ( if done right, they will cut your last suggestion in half, in this case giving you a nice healthy $350/month premium.)

Ok, So $350? (Nodding head up and down and getting agreement from both husband and wife)**Very Important***

51
Q

Finding out what benefits are important to them (Consultant)

A

( Be a consultant and customize to what they tell you, hold their hand through the process, you are going to go through each individual rider, show benefits, give examples and show them the cost so they can decide if its worth it to them, sometimes you will just lower the benefit, give the benefit to just one member or get rid of it all together, AGAIN BE A TRUSTED CONSULTANT TO THEM, show them you care)

52
Q

3 Options Good, Better, Best (Assumptive close) #1

A

(You are going to use the info they gave you regarding what was important to them and give them 3 options based on that. The option in the middle should be at the price point they told you they could afford. Then 1 option at a lesser price point and another at a higher price point.)

53
Q

3 Options Good, Better , Best (Assumptive close) #2

A

(This is where you have to use the information they gave you, intuition, and your skills as a professional to design 3 options that will all fit, but 1 will fit them the best. You may be quoting just 1 person, or both…Also, it happens often that the main bread winner chooses a higher price point and the dependent chooses a lower, really work with them to customize to their needs)(Nudge them if needed)

54
Q

3 Options Good, Better, Best (Assumptive close) # 3

A

Of these 3, which one do you kinda like the best? (shut up) (application is already out and ready to fill)

I(they will look at each other, the absolute best thing that can happen is that they ask you your advice)

Great! And if something happened to you John, the money would go to Mary, Correct? (Nodding up and down)

And God forbid if something happened to both of you? Who would the money go to then?

(Pull Out Your ID and License)

55
Q

3 Options Good, Better, Best (Assumptive close) #4

A

Almost forgot, For security, I was supposed to show you this at the beginning, for Security, the Insurance company requires I show you my ID.

Now, May I see you ID please (Law of reciprosity)

This is your correct address?

Your date of birth is…

Phone numbers…

( Go through all the basic info, nodding and getting them to agree yes in agreement on every single one)

Ok, Now we” ll briefly go through some medical info, a nothing else besides what you are taking medication for? Let me see the medications, please. Ok, I’m just going to breeze through the medical questions, I’m going to assume the answer is no to everything, if there is a yes or something you are not sure about, stop me and we’ll go over it and put it down if we need to.

56
Q

3 Options Good, Better , Best (Assumptive close)

A

(Fill out whatever you need to, all apps are different)

I need your Ok right here, basically stating that all the information you gave me is correct to the best of your knowledge. (pointing at the space you want them to sign)

(the confidence and competence you show at this point is SUPER important!!!)

57
Q

Binding coverage and application process #1 (Application)

A

Ok, So what will happen next is that I will send the application to the insurance company and they will either approve it as applied for, they could find something they don’t like and come back with an offer that’s a little more money or even turn it down. We will know in 2-4 weeks (Paramed if applicable)

58
Q

Binding coverage and application process #2 (2 Options)

A

You have 2 options right now, you can write out a check for the 1st month which will bind the coverage, meaning you will be covered from today if anything happened to you as long as the application was going to be approved, or you can just give me a voided check and you won’t pay anything until its all approved and we’ve gotten together again, please remember though, God forbid if anything happened, you would not be covered until the insurance company takes the first payment, which do you prefer?

59
Q
A
