an estate plan. While these are a lit-
tle vague, they’re a start.
The third step is identifying prob-
lems that might prevent financial
independence, such as too little or
too much insurance, a high tax bur-
den, inadequate cash flow or current
investments that are losing money.
It is important at this point to have a
financial advisor assist in develop-
ing a plan.
A professional advisor can pro-
vide objectivity and expertise. It’s
hard for people to be objective
regarding their own finances, and
most do not have the financial expe-
rience necessary to make wise deci-
sions.
The fourth step is structuring a
plan to meet financial needs and
objectives, followed by implemen-
tation of agreed-upon recommenda-
tions. A financial advisor can help
develop and implement the plan, but
the decision to implement, modify
or reject recommendations remains
the individual’s ultimate responsi-
bility. Many advisors provide a
checklist to help clients implement
their plans themselves.
Expo97 update
Many door prizes, ranging from
Savings Bonds to a $500 travel
A final, and often most important,
step is periodically reviewing and
revising the plan to account for
changes in personal and economic
conditions. The advisor and client
can then review goals and problem
areas and fine tune the plan as need-
ed. Be sure to check with your
financial advisor how your tax
return can serve as your starting
point and progress report on achiev-
ing your financial planning goals.

V Y breathe, a sigh of relief
and forget about the IRS for another
year. However, the information you
gathered to satisfy Uncle Sam may
be just what you need to begin real-
izing your financial dreams.
Developing a personal financial
plan begins with accumulating
much of the same data needed to
prepare your income taxes. It is the
perfect time to start on a financial
plan. Taxpayers can use their
income tax information to form the
plan’s foundation.
First, you will need lists of assets
and liabilities, copies of tax returns,
insurance policies, wills, trusts and
pension plans. This involves getting
a handle on where you are in your
financial life before you plan for
where you want to be.
The second step in the financial
planning process is identifying both
financial and personal goals. The
three objectives cited most often are
security in retirement, providing for
children’s education and developing

Financial dreams from tax returns
A stallion can win multiple
awards himself and be bred to
the max—but if he can't repro-
duce those traits, he isn't much
use to you mare owners. “Tim"
is a gentle stallion that has al-
ready proven himself a top
notch sire. Not only siring mul-
tiple halter futurity champions
and point earners, but also rein-
ing, roping and pleasure win-
ners. One of his babies, HOT
AND TIMID, is the 1992 AQHA
High Point Jr. and Open Rein-
ing Horse!
So, if you want a pretty baby you
can halter and actually ride com-
petitively later, look Tim up. He’s
a proven winner!
