American IRA Discusses Why a Self-Directed Real Estate IRA May Be the Best Investment Vehicle

Might a Self-Directed Real Estate IRA be the best possible investment vehicle for people looking to build a retirement nest egg? That's the question asked at a recent post at American IRA, a Self-Directed IRA administration firm based in North Carolina. According to the post, there are five distinct reasons a Self-Directed Real Estate IRA may indeed serve retirement investors better than they realize.

One of these reasons, according to the post, includes extra protections via the tax code. "The tax advantages that come with Self-Directed IRAs are obvious to anyone who has invested through a retirement account before," notes the post. "Long-term growth in a Self-Directed Real Estate IRA can minimize tax burdens over the years, which in turn helps investors save money." Read related news here.

Other reasons, such as diversifying one's retirement portfolio by investing in a different asset class outside the public stock market, may make Self-Directed Real Estate IRAs more attractive to people who need alternative investment ideas to build a wider and more stable portfolio.

"With this post, American IRA points out the many benefits to investing in real estate through a tax-advantaged account," said Jim Hitt, CEO of American IRA. "There are a lot of reasons that it's different this way. An investor cannot live in their own real estate property if they hold it through a retirement account, for example. But understanding this, it's still possible to maximize the value of an investment by holding it in a tax-advantaged account that can save the investor thousands of dollars over the years."

The post goes on to list five total reasons a Self-Directed Real Estate IRA may be an ideal investment vehicle for those looking to expand their retirement portfolio with growth from real estate.

"Hopefully, this sheds some light on what it might be like to include some real estate in your retirement portfolio," said Jim Hitt. "For a lot of people, it really helps build more confidence that they are building a portfolio that can weather short-term economic storms."

Technology Helps Older Adults Stay Connected

Now more than ever, older adults are using technology to stay connected with family, friends and society. In fact, a study by Pew Research Center found that roughly two-thirds of adults age 65 and older report using the internet and nearly 42% own a smart phone, up from just 18% in 2013. Read news here.

"Staying up-to-date with technology can be extremely valuable for older adults," said Lakelyn Hogan, gerontologist and caregiver advocate at Home Instead Senior Care. "Whether using a device to video chat with loved ones, schedule online appointments or catch up on current events, it's now easier than ever to be connected to the world from the comfort of your own home." Be alert to the latest news.

In addition to remaining socially connected, technology can provide significant benefits for older adults, making life easier and more enjoyable. For example, seniors are now able to access bank statements and pay bills online, order groceries to be delivered, fill prescriptions remotely and even stay mentally and physically active with the help of countless apps.

However, as digital adoption grows, some older adults still face challenges using devices and adjusting to regular changes and updates. In fact, the study by Pew Research Center also found that nearly half of seniors rely on the help of a loved one to set up or teach them how to use a new electronic device.

Home Instead recommends the following tips to help older adults embrace technology:

Qaddoo Launches New Mobile Platform For Engaging With People Around Your Location Without Revealing Your Identity

Qaddoo, a mobile platform which lets you socialize with the people around your location in real-time without sharing your identity, has launched a mobile app for iOS and Android. Qaddoo, which is a San Francisco based startup did a soft launch for the app last year with invitation only for users at limited locations. The newly launched version is available immediately to all the users world-wide through Apple and Google app stores free of charge.

The idea behind Qaddoo started with a goal to give back control to people over their identity. In the age of social media it seems we are slowly losing control of our identity or being constantly targeted by marketing. Social media platforms have become a medium to one up each other and it seems we are losing our humanity in the process and companies have turned us into commodities to be traded and sold to the highest bidder, quite literally.

The creators of Qaddoo had gone to many business conferences and events and always wondered if there was a safe and consistent way for all the people there to interact with each other, securely and privately? Imagine how many conversations could take place around common areas of interest if there was no concern of losing their privacy or personally identifiable information. Seeing that every event has an app of their own and none of the social media platforms offered security or privacy, they decided to develop a platform that will allow just this.

Qaddoo is designed for people who are at a certain place and are looking to interact with people around them to discover useful information to make their experience more enjoyable; or for people who wish to break the ice with like minded people.

Qaddoo lets you create TANs (Transient Area Networks) or commonly called communities of users who are at a particular location within 0-5 miles radius. You can find a TAN according to your area of interest and engage with the user community in that TAN, or simply create your own, if you don't find a relevant one that you are looking for and others can join that TAN. Be alert to the latest news.

Anonymity is the key to Qaddoo. Unless you wish to share, nobody will know who you are. A unique feature of Qaddoo is Firefly. At an event like a Concert or a Sports Game, the TAN owner can create a firefly event which is visible to everyone at that location and the users using Qaddoo can join the Firefly. Once users join Firefly, at the event start time, everyone's flashlight lights up in unison to create a beautifully synchronized dance of lights. This gives a beautiful Firefly effect in the concert hall or stadium to cheer up your favorite artist to see all the fans cheer up as "One". Be the part of this one voice, use Firefly at an event to believe.

Sumit Kapoor and Anurag Gupta, the creators of Qaddoo, were disillusioned by existing social networking apps and platforms, especially in the light of all the negative news around the barter and sale of our private information as commodities, by companies who broke our trust when we shared our private information with them. We appreciate the power of social networking platforms and their ability to make the world a better place, but the true potential can only be realized if our private information remains in our control.

Qaddoo truly believes in the power of community and for that reason have also launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise money through crowd-funding to build more engaging features for the users and to ensure Qaddoo continues to be driven by the purpose of socially responsible networking.

Users can download the app in the iOS or Android app stores available now. To learn more about Qaddoo, click here http://www.qaddoo.com.
