The Basics of Self-Directed IRAs: ‘Invest in What You Know’

Join Patrick Hagen for a free one-hour presentation in Missouri. Patrick will discuss investing in ‘alternative’ assets through a self-directed retirement plan.


There is a world of available investment options for your IRA/401(k) outside of the traditional stocks, bonds and mutual funds. Discussions will include investing IRA funds into:



  • Real Estate

  • Private Stock

  • Private Notes

  • Precious Metals


We will discuss why you’ve never been told that alternative investments can be included in your retirement portfolio. Additionally, we will discuss the rules and the steps involved with a truly self-directed IRA.
