Your Sidepocket fee is tax-deductible. Investment management and retirement account administration fees are generally deductible as business or investment expenses, further reducing your effective cost.
The Real Cost of Waiting
Our fee is an investment that pays for itself many times over. Here’s the math:
Note: Tax savings assume 30% combined federal + state rate. Actual savings depend on your tax situation.
20-Year Projection
The power of tax-deferred compounding makes Sidepocket’s fee negligible over time:
* Based on maxing out $42K/year SEP contribution at $150K income, 30% tax rate, 8% average annual return over 20 years. The 8% return assumption reflects the S&P 500’s historical average annual return since 1957. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Your results will vary.
Why Lifetime Makes Sense
If you plan to use Sidepocket for more than 2 years, Lifetime is the smartest financial decision.

Lifetime Plan Guarantee
Your Lifetime access includes all future features and improvements at no additional cost. As we add Solo 401(k) support, Safe Harbor 401(k), and other features, you’ll get them automatically.
*To maintain active Lifetime status, accounts must hold a minimum of $100,000 in total managed capital after 3 years. Accounts falling below this threshold will be considered dormant and may be converted to a Tactical subscription plan. See full terms.
Our Savings Guarantee
We’re confident Sidepocket will save you money. If it doesn’t, we’ll make it right.
The Sidepocket Promise
If Sidepocket doesn’t help you save at least 2x our fee in tax savings during your first year, we’ll refund the difference. That’s our commitment to delivering real value.
