1322 Legacy Strategies

Holistic tax-savvy estate & retirement design for the 60–75 bracket

Credibility Narrative

Retirement’s first day can feel like stepping onto a high wire with no net. After decades of diligent saving, the game shifts from accumulation todistribution without erosion—a transition few are coached to win.

Brad Raschke serves as a financial architect for families in that “red-zone” decade. Rooted in Austrian-economics skepticism of inflation and guided by Proverbs 13:22, Brad blends tax mapping, trust architecture, and private liquidity tools (Infinite Banking isone of several) to build legacies that are durable, contractually certain, and values-aligned.

The result? A retirement plan that resists market whiplash, silent tax hikes, and sequence-of-returns risk—freeing families to focus on passing on values, not just valuables.

Are We a Fit?

We’re built for detail-oriented households who:

  • Have $500k – $10 M across IRAs, 401(k)s, brokerage, and real estate
  • Will begin—or have begun—Required Minimum Distributions within 10 yrs
  • Value biblical stewardship & multi-generational impact over flashy speculation
  • Prefer a single “general contractor” who quarterbacks CPAs, attorneys, and investment managers

Our 3-Phase Method

  1. Tax Mapping & Cash-Flow Design
    Run multi-year Roth-conversion scenarios, Social Security timing, and pension vs annuity trade-offs to minimize lifetime tax drag.
  2. Estate & Risk Architecture
    Coordinate revocable / irrevocable trusts, beneficiary forms, and long-term-care hedges; ensure assets bypass probate & family conflict.
  3. Liquidity Engineering
    Establish contract-based cash-value lines or structured credit so big purchases (roof replacements, business buyouts) never force a down-market asset sale.
