You build everything except your own exit.

Retirement strategies for contractors and trade business owners.

The contractor’s exit myth

Your money is in trucks, equipment, crew, and receivables. Good years get reinvested. And the plan is the same one every contractor has: sell the company someday. Here’s the problem. Trade businesses mostly sell as asset sales, if they sell at all. The buyer wants your equipment and maybe your phone number. The number you’ve got in your head? It’s usually the gross, before taxes and the gear loan payoffs. Meanwhile, your body is the real balance sheet, and it has a shelf life.

The shift

Every strong year, protected dollars come OUT of the business, into structures built for tax-advantaged retirement income. Life insurance strategies that build accessible cash value. Fixed indexed annuities that turn lump years into lifetime income. Executive bonus plans that lock in your best foreman while funding your own column. The business keeps running. Your retirement stops depending on it selling. Protect. Keep. Convert.

I wrote the book on this

The Owner’s Blind Spot covers exactly this: the risks owners overlook and the structures that fix them. My book names the blind spot. The Blind Spot Method is how I close it. Get the book on Amazon.
