Services
Five ways we work with small businesses and individuals, from workstation setup to emerging technology.
Car & Drone Technologies
Deployment of augmented reality and sophisticated computer software is what will define vehicle manufacturer success in this decade. When implemented correctly, these technologies could improve fuel efficiency, improve safety, and establish precedents for what vehicles can offer.
Drone technology allows remote controlled vehicles to be used in a variety of applications. Drones can be aerial first person view (FPV) or ground drones.
Small Business IT
It is important to have home workstations for anyone who needs to remote in. Comprehensive Technology Consulting can come to your place of work and set up all the devices required for your workstations.
We serve Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and Singapore.
Special Projects
Have a project you need some help with? Whether it is a custom built PC to address your specific needs, or a business overhaul of devices and servers, we are here to help. Pricing is based on the scale of the project; please contact us for a quote.
Private Development
We have a variety of projects with optimistic goals, some of which are available for private viewing. For a detailed list, please contact us to see if we have what you are looking for.
Investment Analysis
We can provide detailed information and data on technology companies, as well as any other large corporation that uses modern machinery and tools on a large scale. This can be applied to industries clients may be considering investing in, so they are aware of the estimated risks and profit potential before deciding how much to invest. Another key advantage is our insight into companies with emerging technologies, which informs our clients which bull runs (sudden exponential increases in value) are safe investments and which are not, based on each specific cryptocurrency or stock.
Disclosure: Comprehensive Technology Consulting advises speaking with a wealth management entity or licensed individual before making any investments. While our Investment Analysis service provides insight on the most promising technologies, businesses and cryptocurrencies, we are not a wealth management agency.
How do we do this?
Each year when technology companies announce advancements or new products with bold claims, we examine challenges that would prevent the product or service from going to market in a cost effective way. Additional metrics used in producing our opinions include, but are not limited to: product specifications, benchmarks, patch notes, opinions from experts in very specific fields, and our own assessment of possible challenges. With this data we can coordinate with licensed financial teams or agents to advise them in selecting the most promising stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, and cryptocurrencies.
Working alongside a fiduciary
We strongly advise also working with a fiduciary: a financial consultant who is legally required to act in your best interest. There are certain roles we can provide optimally, but there are others that we are not best suited for or that require the legal qualifications of a fiduciary. However, we can coordinate with fiduciaries to optimize their effectiveness. Here is a brief list of our different roles in effective financial planning:
Our investment analytics focuses on
- Investment for savings accounts with aggressive growth potential over short to medium periods of time.
- Development of portfolios with a focus on saving up to reach specific objectives, such as buying a new car or modest home repairs.
- Accumulating a large sum of wealth by making minimal monthly investments to settle any outstanding debt on a client’s credit report.
- Saving up to produce a sizable down payment towards purchasing a home, which will produce manageable mortgage rates.
- Starting portfolios for young family members, so that when they become adults they have a significant amount of liquid assets that can be converted into cash for pursuing their career of choice without needing to worry about immediate financial obstacles: college or trade school tuition, buying their first car, or moving to a part of the country where there is opportunity for them.
Fiduciaries are equipped to handle those things, but generally excel at
- Any and all legal matters involving care of family members.
- Oversight of the use of assets from a trust.
- Preparing care for clients or clients’ family members who have special needs or a disability.
- Organizing a retirement strategy that will sufficiently cover the client into their later years.
- Providing healthcare, dental and eye care for the individual.
- Handling all legal and court documentation pertaining to the client.
- Filing and retaining records for tax returns.
Fees, costs and taxes
Fees, costs, and taxes are very straightforward. Fiduciaries have set fees and amounts they charge, which are disclosed to the client, are generally overseen by the courts to ensure they are fair, and are bound by law to work in their client’s best interest. Wealth management entities, by contrast, are not required to disclose fees, kickbacks, incentives, or their relationship to the products they are having you invest in.
Comprehensive Technology Consulting has a simple principle for our operations and only charges one fee. We have clients open accounts on major trading platforms that we are not affiliated with (we recommend TD Ameritrade, Fidelity, and Pro.Coinbase), and our only fee is an annual 20% of the average amount of gains per portfolio for that year. This creates an incentive for us to do what is most beneficial to the client, as we only get paid when the client is making money.
Taxes are “capital gains taxes,” which tend to be around 10–15% of gains (money made above the principal amount invested) and are charged when the asset is liquidated or sold. Different states have different rates, the rates change based on how much has been made, and different account types have different capital gains tax brackets that tend to be substantially lower. This generally applies to minors with college funds and to retirement savings accounts, but these can also vary depending on other factors.
