Expected Outcomes

Suitability is one of the most important concepts for serving clients as an investment advisor. Suitability refers to whether a particular approach best suits the client's financial situation and goals. We have a fiduciary responsibility to our clients, meaning that we always put their needs first and always do what is best for them. Broken Investing is only suitable for clients seeking for a portion of their total investment funds to be allocated to high-risk, high-reward strategies. Our services should not replace financial planning, investing for retirement, paying down debt, long-term savings plans, or educational savings plans.

There are no guarantees with investing, and our methods are more volatile than typical investments and are not a guarantee for gains. Based upon experience and modeling, Broken Investing seeks to double the gains of the market (S&P 500). For example, if the market gains 5% in a given year, we would want our clients to gain at least 10%. If the market gains 10%, we aim for 20%. If the market gains 20%, our goal is 40%. These figures are only goals; they are not promises or guarantees.

What about years of negative returns? Whether the market is down -5% or -16% in a year, our goal is that our clients would not lose money. That may mean a client return of as little as 0% or 1% that same year, but we would consider that a meaningful victory.
