The Argentine Vineyard Resort Investment Development Opportunities
Rich IRA – Poor IRA


A war is raging and if you have one of the 45,000,000 IRA or 401(k) Plans in America today you stand directly in the line of fire in the silent fight over eight trillion dollars.

Who’s winning the war? Wall Street enjoys control over 97% of all IRA and 401(k) dollars in American and continues to do just about anything to keep every penny.

Who controls your IRA, you or Wall Street who won’t share the secret on how you can unlock the power of your IRA and use its funds on products never offered to you by Wall Street’s Agents; Stock Brokers and Financial Planners.

Isn’t Wall Street’s financial mantra “Diversify” yet Wall Street has yet to inform you your IRA can buy real estate including foreign real estate including exciting, fun and diverse investments like a vineyard in Argentina, a condo in Belize, a Teak Wood forest in Panama, a shrimp farm in Thailand or a B&B in Maine.

Wall Street is not the only one responsible for not providing you with “all of the facts”. How many real estate opportunities have your IRA missed because your Realtor® didn’t tell you that your IRA can buy real estate and real estate related products like Tax Lien Certificates, Notes, Leases and even Water Rights.

Learn why a Wall Street IRA can’t do the job for you and why Wall Street won’t acknowledge its inefficiency.

To establish control over your IRA, (your hard earned money) You will need a Check Book Control Self Directed IRA that eliminates costly and time consuming IRA Custodial “Red Tape” that denies your IRA the ability to make immediate investment decisions and to fund them by simply writing a check.

The new Individual 401(k) Plan is without a doubt the greatest retirement tool in decades because it offers both ROTH and Traditional components. Annual contributions cab be up to $49,500 without “income ceilings” limitations. It can also eliminate an IRA Custodian altogether thus reducing costly management fees.

Isn’t it time for you to take total control of your IRA and shave years, even decades off your retirement age and add hundreds even thousands of extra monthly dollars to your retirement income?


Author of: “RICH IRA POOR IRA©2007” “RICH REALTOR® POOR REALTOR®©2005” “How To Buy and Sell Real Estate and Never Pay Taxes (legally)©2003” “The Argentine Vineyards Buyer’s Guide©2007” In 2005 Thomas founded IRA to make available to the public an easily accessible source of current information on alternative investments for an IRA including domestic real estate and specializing in foreign real estate. Mr. Phelan’s philosophy is simple, “Americans need to know the complete range of investment products available and for decades the agents of Wall Street, Stock Brokers, Mutual Fund Salespeople, Financial Planners and yes, even Realtors®, have failed to sufficiently inform their clientele that the #1 investment for Self-Directed IRAs is REAL ESTATE and real estate related products; Notes, Tax Lien Certificates etc. Americans are hungry to use their IRA funds to buy real estate. Each month Americans divert 200 million dollars from Wall Street IRAs to Self-Directed IRA Custodians. They are the informed ones yet the majority of people with IRAs don’t know how to ‘unlock’ and effectively utilize their IRA funds. My job is simple-I show them how.”

Thomas is a member and certified IRAAA Consultant for IRA Association of America. He is trained to advise taxpayers on what IRA Plans and what IRA Custodian will best serve their needs; the IRA, Traditional or ROTH, the Self-Directed IRA, Traditional or ROTH or SEP, the Self-Directed IRA with Special Purpose LLC with the Check Book Control, Traditional or ROTH or SEP, or the Individual 401(k) Traditional and/or ROTH.
Thomas speaks and writes for PENSCO Trust a leading Self-Directed IRA Custodian with over three billion dollars under management, Thomas is a popular Guest Speaker for International Living at its foreign events; Cancun, Puerto Vallarta and San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Monte Carlo.
The Escape Artist, Early To Rise and the Wall Street Journal’s Internet Real Estate Section have published his articles.

Thomas is a Certified 1031 Exchange Specialist and his: “How To Buy And Sell Real Estate And Never Pay Taxes (legally)©2003” was praised by legendary real estate guru Ron LeGrand who wrote the foreword to this powerful tax avoidance tool and considers Thomas “A Leading Expert in the 1031 Exchange field”.
