INTERVIEW WITH DMITRIY FOMICHENKO LINDA PLIAGAS
What are the biggest misconceptions about IRAs?
Many people been conditioned by major financial institutions to believe that traditional investments (stocks and
mutual funds) are the only investment choice in the retirement account. But the fact is, this is the limitation put
in place by financial institutions and they dictate to you these investment options. The IRS allows a whole
spectrum of investments, including real estate, precious metals, trust deeds, private lending and many more!
What is the best and worst part of running Sense Financial?
I love helping people! It fills me with joy when my clients are satisfied. I would say that this is probably the
best part. When my clients call or email me to express their gratitude and satisfaction - I feel fulfilled. I am an
engineer by education and I like creating systems. I have several ideas for improving things, expanding in
other markets, etc. However, I can't do it all myself and have to delegate things. Finding the right team
members can be challenging. I select people very carefully. I have also experienced companies that grow too
rapidly, which was detrimental. That is one of the reasons why I want to have controlled growth. So the worst
part of running Sense Financial is probably the fact that I can't implement all my ideas immediately.
Where do you see Sense Financial in five
years?
That my company has achieved controlled growth and
that the people added to my team have been carefully
selected and share the same values of integrity and
customer service that I have.
Is there anything you would like to add?
We understand that many people are concerned
about retirement.
And we know that the self-
directed retirement accounts we offer, such as the
Solo 401k, enable our clients to take control over
their future. Our goal is to provide our clients with
IRS-compliant retirement accounts and to ensure
100% satisfaction. I am happy to report that we
are able to achieve this!
