Why proactive planning matters

Tax filing looks backward. Strategy looks forward.

Many business owners work hard, generate consistent profits, and still discover their tax bill only after the year is already closed. By then, many planning windows may have passed.

Umanzor Wealth helps owners explore customized strategies that may reduce taxes, build tax-efficient retirement income, protect wealth, and create a stronger long-term plan.

A Section 162 executive bonus plan lets the business reward a key person with a bonus that funds the key person's own retirement strategy. Pick a compensation example — $180,000, $200,000, or $250,000 — slide the bonus percentage between 20%, 25%, and 30%, and see how the numbers can work.

Key person annual pay
20%

The business pays the key person a bonus of this percentage of annual pay.
