If however you looked on Friday, after several consecutive down days on the stock market, and you have been listening while some of the experts label the recent market rally a  fool s rally , those uneasy feelings of losing everything&nbsp;&nbsp; might be returning.&nbsp; For many people it is not the market roll coaster ride that their retirement account is on but it is the feeling of helplessness and the lack of control over their own retirement that has them so troubled. </p> <p>There is an alternative to the traditional park and pray strategy of retirement account investing: Self-Directed Retirement Accounts. Self-directing opens up a world of investment options to retirement funds. You may think that you have a self-directed retirement account because your broker allows you to choose from any mutual fund in their portfolio.&nbsp; However, I am talking about really self-directing and investing beyond mutual funds and the stock market. </p> <p>Many people know about the self directed retirement accountant option but they fall into one of three categories:<br> 1.&nbsp;They don t take advantage of a self-directed retirement account because the rules seem overly complicated and confusing.&nbsp; <br> 2.&nbsp;They have self-directed retirement accounts but the labyrinth of rules may have left their retirement account out of out of compliance. <br> 3.&nbsp;They have a self-directed retirement account but they have not used it to invest with yet because they do not know what to invest in or how to make the investment. </p> <p>Self-direct retirement accounts are far too powerful a tool for building lasting wealth and a comfortable retirement not to be used merely due to a lack of knowledge. Please join me CPA and tax strategist Warren Taryle and real estate investor and creator of the  Land for Pennies education series Jack Bosch for  <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?TaxThink/618b13810c/7bc87d807d/3979a3a2f5">The Right Way to Use Your Self-Directed Retirement Account</a> course. </p> <p>In this course Jack and I will show you all you need to know to setup your self-directed retirement account  and keep it legal.&nbsp; Some of the topics they will cover are:<br> " &nbsp;What you allowed to invest in<br> " &nbsp; Who are you allowed to invest with<br> " &nbsp; What is unrelated business income tax and how to avoid it<br> " &nbsp;The types of retirement accounts you can self-direct </p> <p>We will also discuss investment strategies and pitfalls using <br> " &nbsp;Land Banking<br> " &nbsp;Rental Real Estate<br> " &nbsp;Promissory Notes<br> " &nbsp;And more </p> <p>Plus, we will explain the newest trend in self-directed retirement accounts, the Checkbook IRA. A Checkbook IRA allows even more control and more options than the traditional self-directed retirement account. </p> <p><a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?TaxThink/618b13810c/7bc87d807d/c96b2c6ea7"><span style='font-size:18.0pt'>Sign up now</span></a>&nbsp; </p> <p>&nbsp; </p> </td> </tr> <tr style='mso-yfti-irow:2'> <td style='padding:7.5pt 7.5pt 7.5pt 7.5pt'> <p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p> </td> <td style='background:#E2B653;padding:7.5pt 7.5pt 7.5pt 7.5pt'> <p align=center style='text-align:center'><strong><span style='font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"'>Did You Miss a Webinar&nbsp;On Subject&nbsp;That&nbsp;Is Important To You</span></strong><span style='font-family:"Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"'> </span></p> <p align=center style='text-align:center'><strong><span style='font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"'><a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?TaxThink/618b13810c/7bc87d807d/1afcd4ea28/main_page=index&amp;cPath=1"><span style='font-family:"Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"'>See&nbsp;all of our recorded &nbsp;webinars &gt;&gt;</span></a>&nbsp;</span></strong> </p> </td> </tr> <tr style='mso-yfti-irow:3;mso-yfti-lastrow:yes'> <td style='padding:7.5pt 7.5pt 7.5pt 7.5pt'> <p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p> </td> <td style='background:white;padding:7.5pt 7.5pt 7.5pt 7.5pt'> <p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'>First ask yourself: What is the worst that can happen?
