The Real Facts
• “The average ‘Baby Boomer’ family has approximately $50,000 in
total net savings. Including home equity, they have about
$110,000.”
Ben Stein, CBS Sunday Morning
• “A survey by the nonprofit Employee Benefit Research Institute
found that 52% of those surveyed had less that $25,000 set aside
for retirement; 13% had $25,000 to $49,999 and 11% had $50,000
to $99,999. Just 21% had $100,000 or more.”
San Francisco Chronicle April 5th , 2005

How much do you need at retirement?
Planning Considerations
1. Inflation:
- At a 3% annual inflation rate, your living expenses will
double over 25 years.
- At a 5% annual rate, they will triple over 25 years.
2. Medical Expenses:
- Experts say that you should have $200,000 set aside just
to cover healthcare expenses.
• Lifespan:
- People are living longer.
- You may be retired for 20 or 30 years.
- Will the money last?
Consider This…
25 to 30 Years Ago You Could Have
Purchased an Average House in the
San Jose or Orange County Area for
about $25,000.
Today that same house is worth between
$500,000 and $750,000!
That is 20 to 30 times your original investment!
At The Same Time, 3 to 5 Miles
Away, You Could Have Purchased 3
Acres of LAND For About The Same
Price…$25,000
Today That Land is Worth About
$4,500,000!
180 Times the Original Investment

Land Value
What Causes Land Value in an Area to Increase?
• Population density
• Economy and Jobs
• We’ve analyzed population &
economic statistics to
determine where to buy
Where do we buy and why?

Population Grow Plus Econom
th ics
• California has the largest population in the United States
- currently 37.7 million (Source: CA Dept of Finance), and will add
approximately 6.0 million more in the next 10 years.
• California is the 8th most powerful economy
in the world!
• San Francisco Bay Area
(90 Mile circle = 21%)
Population = 7,700,000
• Los Angeles Megalopolis
(60 Mile circle = 50%)
Population = 18,400,000
(plus 3 million in 10 years)
The Los Angeles Megalopolis
This 60 Mile Circle, if viewed as a nation . . .
• Would be the 11th most powerful
economy in the world (World Bank Statistics)
• Provides ½ of California GDP
• Is a job creating machine
• Has the most diverse economy in
the world
This 60 mile circle, at 3.6 times greater density than the Bay Area,
absorbs 50% of California’s population growth
! The strongest demographics and economics in the United
States
Where is the growth path?
Remember “Land Banking”
A specific land parcel is only a part of the overall
inevitable growth potential within an area in the growth
path of a major population center.
Is there any parcel of land that was a bad buy in the San
Jose or Orange County area 25 to 30 years ago at $5,000,
$10,000 or $20,000 an acre?
Try to find those prices now. An acre of land is typically
over $1 million dollars today!
Land Banking is about long term appreciation;
And that is precisely the principle behind IRAs, 401Ks
and other retirement programs!
