What is Ratchet Growth?

If you’ve ever used a ratchet, you’ll understand this analogy. For those of you who haven't used one, when you're using a ratchet you set it so that it only moves in one direction - forward in whichever direction you decide, never backward. Each turn of the ratchet is a step forward, securing progress with every twist.

Now, picture one of your financial accounts doing the same. Just like a ratchet, the growth in your account only moves in one direction – up, never down!

Here's how it works:
  • Upward Momentum: Your growth is linked to a market index, but with a twist. Your gains are captured annually, but if the market dips, your value doesn't go down. It's like when a ratchet's teeth lock in place, ensuring every gain is yours to keep.

  • No Backsliding: Just as a ratchet secures each advance, your account secures your gains. This means you enjoy growth in good market years, and in down years your account’s value doesn't decrease. It's principal protection at its finest because it locks in your grown principal amount each year!

  • Flexibility and Control: With a ratchet, you control the pace and direction. Similarly, you have the flexibility to adjust how much you add to it, which indexes you desire and other factors, tailoring your account to your life's journey all with the help of a professional like myself who isn't going to charge you "management fees." 😉

  • Building Tax-Free Wealth Over Time: Each ratchet turn builds on the last, compounding your work. Your money grows tax-deferred, and you can even use it without interrupting the compound growth in your account.

  • Peace of Mind: Knowing your financial progress is moving only one way - upward - provides a sense of security. It's the peace of mind that comes from knowing your financial ratchet is working tirelessly for you.
