I appreciate the lack of Clickbait nature to this video. I feel like the user presents the facts and keeps it relatively simple and I thank her for it!!
You are phenomenal with your knowledge base and delivery of this information . I would be honored to attend a meet and greet with you, and take a class taught by you . God bless you. Seriously.
I'm an broker/agent myself and this helped me out alot. I have plenty of insurance options for folks but it's hard knowing what is the best option sometimes. For clients who ask about these, I'll have a better way of explaining the pros and cons. Thanks!
@WealthProtectionLady we will see about that. I'll look into it, although I am not too intreagued by most insurance products. I am always open to learning and educating myself. Illustrations should be sold as best case scenario returns. It would help people have more realistic expectations.
@WealthProtectionLady watched a presentation on that exact IUL. Yes, I guess it's better than the average. It's good the illustration is under promised so the customer is surprised and delighted. BUT the numbers provided are rather underwhelming. About 7.5% average with 10.6 being the best return, For the prism fund if I'm remembering correctly. Put that against any low fee sp500 index fund like VOO, for example. Lifetime average is almost 14.5%. You're giving up a lot of money over the long term for downside protection. That's a boring index fund comparison. You do growth / options vs. IUL, and the numbers look that much worse. Yes, this is better than nothing, but I would never put this ahead any roth product. A argument can even get made for tax differed IRAs too. If the returns are high enough, even after taxes you still beat the returns on most insurance products. I can see why insurance companies love IULs, it's very lucrative. As a last investment bucket this can make sense. It wouldn't be a primary choice, atleast not for me.
I really love the pace at which you teach. This is awesome! I hope you will be able to do a video on the impact of CVAT and when it should be used when developing your policy. Thanks
Good video, gives detail on the IUL product. How the IUL is constructed by your Life insurance agent is up to the agent. How do you know if the agent is working in your best interest vs. padding his generous commission ? That is a bridge too far for me. I'll stick with my portfolio of dividend paying stocks many of which increase their dividend every year. My heirs will get a stepped up cost basis on the stock positions. And at my age, early 60s the life insurance cost will go up every year. And that will eat into the cash value. I'm too old for an IUL.
If you are interested in an IUL illustration, Minh, here is a link to the application to talk with me. .form.typeform.com/to/SNfW1IBA. Also, watch this video to learn more about the IUL I offer. th-cam.com/video/zB5f0XsClR4/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=WealthProtectionLady
I don’t sell much Kai-Zen for two reasons: the lowest annual premium is around $21,000 and you do not have access to your money for 15 years.

I would recommend you watch my video IUL on Steroids. application.wealthprotectionlady.com/
Pretty good information but this needs a few corrections. 1st, you said that if a person takes out too much money they will be taxed. That is true but most companies have rider called "The Over loan Protection rider" which tells the company not to exceed a certain amount so it prevents that from happening. The next correction is that you said if interest rates drop it could hurt the plan. The performance of the plan is NOT based on interest rates but the index the plan follows. If it is set to follow the S&P 500 & interest drop it could be good because lower interest rates are good for the stock market because investors think "why should I take 3% in the bond market when the market is running & I might be able to make 10% in stocks." 3rd. It doesn't necessarily take 12 -15 years to see a return. I've seen plans provide a significant amount in 8-9 years. Also, depending on the age of the client a higher death benefit may help the client because those living benefits are based are based on the death benefit. The higher the death benefit the higher the living benefits.
The agent needs to structure the policy for the LOWEST death benefit the IRS will allow. That means the agent will get the LOWEST commission as well. That will maximize YOUR cash accumulation.
Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom this was prefect to understand pros and cons. How would go about finding the right agent or Insurance company to commit to. Thanks again

The Securian BGA II IUL I sell is the lowest cost in the industry partly because they begin reimbursing you for your expenses in year 11. National Life Group, John Hancock, North American and Allianz are expensive products.
How would I know whether or not my agent designed my policy properly? And if I realized that the agent did not design the policy properly, is there anything I can do to make the changes? Thanks in view of your response!
Watch my video Evaluating IUL Illustrations th-cam.com/video/QVAD79cdP5I/w-d-xo.html. If your policy is not structured properly, you can call the carrier and have them lower the death benefit as much as they can, but they will probably only allow you to lower it 20-25% per year. You can also switch indexes. I would recommend a volatility control index that is preferably rebalanced daily with a high participation rate that is preferably guaranteed at 100%.
You always want the lowest death benefit the IRS will allow. That way your maximizing cash accumulation and the agent receives the lowest commission thus reducing fees.
Watch my video "IUL on Steroids." You always want the lowest death benefit the IRS will allow because an IUL is not about the death benefit. It's about maximizing your cash accumulation. If we didn't have to have the death benefit, we wouldn't, but it's the only way to get benefits that seem too good to be true. The participation rate has increased with the product I offer, so now, you would be credited 265% of any gain in an index that has an average annual return of 17.95%.
I just put out a new video on Friday called Evaluating IUL Illustrations. Here is a link: th-cam.com/video/QVAD79cdP5I/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=WealthProtectionLady
Hi, Kunal! I don't have a video on fees, but IULs are front-loaded with fees for the first 10 years. With the IUL I sell, watch IUL on Steroids, they reimburse you for your fees starting in year 11.
Has anyone here bought IUL life insurance? If yes, can you please share: 1. Which Carrier? 2. How many years in the policy currently? 3. How is the Cash Growth compared to the illustration at year 0? 4. Is it recommended for Tax-Free Cash Value growth - Yes / No? Thanks.
You can do that but I don't necessarily recommend it. If you put down a large lump sum, you would have to divide that up into between 3-11 years. Your first year's premium would be paid and the rest of that money would sit in a Premium Deposit Account earning 5% interest. Every year's premium would be paid. The problem is you don't have access to the funds in the premium deposit account and I bet you could find a better place to put that money that would earn more than 5% interest -- probably realestate.
I'm very new to all of this, so I didn't understand everything but I understood enough to be even more fond of the idea of having an IUL. I appreciate you giving the age range for who would benefit most from an IUL on average.
Good day ma’am and thank you for the wonderful information. I’m 33 years. Owner operator/. Truck driver What the best policy to get to retire in 5-10 years And take the funds and Start investing it into real estate in 3-5 years from now ?? Any suggestions please and thank you. Single no kids no bills. Live in the truck. Goal to retire my parents in 10 years or sooner..
A lot of real estate investors love the positive arbitrage of taking Index/Participating loans in an IUL where you earn interest on the money you loaned yourself. You should watch my IUL on Steroids and Life Insurance Loans videos. In order to retire in 5 years, you'd have to put a lot of money into an IUL. IUls also need to be funded for at least 7 years.
The IUL I sell and design is Securian's BGAII with the 3-year S&P PRISM index because it is the #1 Best Performing Index in the industry with an average annual return since its inception in 2018 of 17.04%. It has two participation rates (115% + 320%) and both are guaranteed at 100%.
Great educational video I totally agree with you that atmost care needs to be taken while designing the policy. I am an IUL producer too can you pls clarify below ? Money taken out from IUL during retirement is taxable unless in following scenarios 1) Withdrawals done until your initial deposit (FIFO) 2) Taking the money out as policy loans. Any withdrawals done on the growth is taxable.
Thankyou for the easy explanation though I still have no clue on how to go about it…I have a few basic questions though - 1) I have a 401k with my employer can choose not to continue with that and go for an IUL 2) Can have both does that hurt? I mean know I will have less in hand as I will need to invest in 2 places 3)If I chose to go with IUL and say transfer my existing 401k fund to IUL does that have any added benefit like less fees etc…does that give me any kind of boost/headstart in the 10-15yrs of period you mentioned it takes for the IUL to have any substantial funds?
Hi, Rahul! You can have both a 401k and IUL. You cannot fund an IUL with a 401k. An IUL can only be funded with money you've already paid taxes on. For the most part, fees on a 401k are very high vs. that of an IUL but not all IULs are created equal. Some have very high fees. Watch my video IUL on Steroids.
Thankyou for your reply, If I were wish to open an IUL how to go about it and do you provide/facilitate the process if yes let me know the next steps. Full disclosure - I do plan to open one for sure but starting March-April next year
@@WealthProtectionLady That's not true at all. Plan B offers a raised death benefit. But at no time, do the beneficiaries receive both the DB and CV. How dare you spread this lie. I defy you to name the carrier you're promoting so I can email them your comments.
@@astroman30When you are on the increasing death benefit option, the beneficiary would receive the death benefit which is the cash value plus the initial death benefit minus any outstanding loans. When you are on the level death benefit option, the beneficiary would receive the death benefit minus any outstanding loans.
If you realize your IUL was not structured properly for the lowest death benefit the IRS will allow, and you're paying fees on a death benefit that is too high, you can call the carrier and request to have your initial death benefit lowered. Chances are they will only allow you to lower it 25% per year.
Hi, Will! It really depends on the performance of your policy, your overall goals and if you are at a point where you are ready to take income. The catch is that you can go from option B to option A, but not from option A to option B (most carriers). So, switching the death benefit to option A is actually a point of no return. My advice is to call your life insurance agent and schedule an annual review, since I am not familiar with your policy. Thank you for your comment!
Typically you switch when you start taking income in retirement age. Some policies only let you switch once during the life of the policy so just make sure you want to do it at the time you switch.
Atm I've been looking at all different types of storage for the money I have in my savings account so it doesn't just sit there. I've looked at offshore banks accounts, IRA, ULA, ect places where I can earn high interest and lower tax possible tax free can you help. I already invest 90% of my money just the 10% is just sitting there earn nothing with its low low interest.

My concern with this type indexed product is the volatility of the market and performance risk. If I understood you correctly I should not be penalized if there is a downturn in the market. I was not aware about this type of product. Thanks for the breakdown.
When you purchase an IUL, you are signing a contract saying you understand you are in this for 10 years and if you want to get out of your contract before the 10 years is up, you will pay a surrender charge. You wouldn't want to get out of your policy before 10 years unless you got stuck with a policy that was structured for the agent to get a big commission. The surrender charge depends on your premium amount and your age, health, gender.
Did you say on the set up of a IUL should be in a way that its for the lowest minimum death benefit available? purpose is to save on any fees or taxes? sorry trying to understand that part?
Yes. The way I structure IULs is for the maximum cash accumulation for you, the lowest commission for me and that is based on the lowest death benefit the IRS will allow. The reason is that you pay fees based on the death benefit, so we want it the lowest it can possibly be. If you need more life insurance, I can always quote you term insurance.
Why not advised for people below 35? You stated it takes about 15 years to make significant returns, isn’t then better to join at early age and earn more returns for longer years?
IULs are great for any age except for those over the age of 65 because life insurance gets more expensive the older you get. Most of my clients are families -- mom, dad and the kids.
@@WealthProtectionLady as relatively new advisor I’ve always worked to hone my presentations. Ive seen it presented many ways. Until I discovered you I thought I was the best. 😂I like your style. Thank you for the amazing library you’ve created!
I don't necessarily recommend an IUL for those over 65 but it depends on what you are looking accomplish. If it is saving for retirement and you want to retire in 5 years, you would need to contribute quite a bit to make it worth while.
Sue thank you for sharing. However, I see that IUL is not available in NYC. Is this correct? How do I go about signing up for those of us in the NY area?

Pretty good information but this needs a few corrections. 1st, you said that if a person takes out too much money they will be taxed. That is true but most companies have rider called "The Over loan Protection rider" which tells the company not to exceed a certain amount so it prevents that from happening. The next correction is that you said if interest rates drop it could hurt the plan. The performance of the plan is NOT based on interest rates but the index the plan follows. If it is set to follow the S&P 500 & interest drop it could be good because lower interest rates are good for the stock market because investors think "why should I take 3% in the bond market when the market is running & I might be able to make 10% in stocks." 3rd. It doesn't necessarily take 12 -15 years to see a return. I've seen plans provide a significant amount in 8-9 years. Also, depending on the age of the client a higher death benefit may help the client because those living benefits are based are based on the death benefit. The higher the death benefit the higher the living benefits.
Great video and explanation. Thank you.

Would it be beneficial to put in a large lump sum upfront into an IUL?

My son is graduating from high school, can he get an iul or would the monthly cost be too much for a minimum wage employee?
Hi, Daniel! There are no age restrictions for an IUL. IULs are a better choice than a 529 plan where you can lose money.
Do you design the IUL or you work with specific companies and agents ??
The IUL I sell and design is Securian's BGAII with the 3-year S&P PRISM index because it is the #1 Best Performing Index in the industry with an average annual return since its inception in 2018 of 17.04%. It has two participation rates (115% + 320%) and both are guaranteed at 100%.
Great educational video I totally agree with you that atmost care needs to be taken while designing the policy. I am an IUL producer too can you pls clarify below ? Money taken out from IUL during retirement is taxable unless in following scenarios 1) Withdrawals done until your initial deposit (FIFO) 2) Taking the money out as policy loans. Any withdrawals done on the growth is taxable.
Whenever you access funds from your IUL, you will always take it in the form of a loan. That way, it will always be tax free.
should I borrow from my cash value or just make a partial withdrawal ?
Always borrow so you get your money tax-free. If you withdraw, you'll have to pay taxes on the gains.
Great information and very important for people to understand different life insurance. Keep up the good work.
Hello Mellonie 😊🥰
Thankyou for the easy explanation though I still have no clue on how to go about it…I have a few basic questions though -
1) I have a 401k with my employer can choose not to continue with that and go for an IUL
2) Can have both does that hurt? I mean know I will have less in hand as I will need to invest in 2 places
3)If I chose to go with IUL and say transfer my existing 401k fund to IUL does that have any added benefit like less fees etc…does that give me any kind of boost/headstart in the 10-15yrs of period you mentioned it takes for the IUL to have any substantial funds?
Hi, Rahul! You can have both a 401k and IUL. You cannot fund an IUL with a 401k. An IUL can only be funded with money you've already paid taxes on. For the most part, fees on a 401k are very high vs. that of an IUL but not all IULs are created equal. Some have very high fees. Watch my video IUL on Steroids.
Thankyou for your reply, If I were wish to open an IUL how to go about it and do you provide/facilitate the process if yes let me know the next steps. Full disclosure - I do plan to open one for sure but starting March-April next year
What happens to the cash value you earned when you die?
When you pass away, your beneficiary will receive the cash value and death benefit minus any outstanding loans.
@@WealthProtectionLady That's not true at all. Plan B offers a raised death benefit. But at no time, do the beneficiaries receive both the DB and CV. How dare you spread this lie. I defy you to name the carrier you're promoting so I can email them your comments.
@@astroman30When you are on the increasing death benefit option, the beneficiary would receive the death benefit which is the cash value plus the initial death benefit minus any outstanding loans. When you are on the level death benefit option, the beneficiary would receive the death benefit minus any outstanding loans.
@@WealthProtectionLady That is completely false. At no time does the CV get paid out unless the policy is cancelled. Name your carrier, please.
Would u recommend this with someone making less then 40k a yr ?
Yes! Absolutely!
How can one get in touch with you for a consultation ?

Just wondering, If I finally read the fine print and find out fees are high but still want my policy what can I do? Can I also restructure?
If you realize your IUL was not structured properly for the lowest death benefit the IRS will allow, and you're paying fees on a death benefit that is too high, you can call the carrier and request to have your initial death benefit lowered. Chances are they will only allow you to lower it 25% per year.
I've had a IUL for 5 years When should I switch from Option B to Option A?
Hi, Will! It really depends on the performance of your policy, your overall goals and if you are at a point where you are ready to take income. The catch is that you can go from option B to option A, but not from option A to option B (most carriers). So, switching the death benefit to option A is actually a point of no return. My advice is to call your life insurance agent and schedule an annual review, since I am not familiar with your policy. Thank you for your comment!
Typically you switch when you start taking income in retirement age. Some policies only let you switch once during the life of the policy so just make sure you want to do it at the time you switch.
This is insanely helpful! Thanks so much for sharing these pros and cons! :)
Thank you
How do we know if we will qualify for Insurance or not (medically speaking)?
If you have medical issues, we may not know until you go through underwriting.
Atm I've been looking at all different types of storage for the money I have in my savings account so it doesn't just sit there.
I've looked at offshore banks accounts, IRA, ULA, ect places where I can earn high interest and lower tax possible tax free can you help.
I already invest 90% of my money just the 10% is just sitting there earn nothing with its low low interest.

My concern with this type indexed product is the volatility of the market and performance risk. If I understood you correctly I should not be penalized if there is a downturn in the market. I was not aware about this type of product. Thanks for the breakdown.
Exactly! You get the upside of the market but if the market goes down, you don't lose anything.
Thank you for this information.
You are welcome, Nickole!
Thank you for explaining what an IUL is! I didn't understand it prior to watching this
Your honesty is AMAZING - thank you for teaching me about this!
You are so welcome!
What is a surrender charge? and how much does the insurance charge you for it?
When you purchase an IUL, you are signing a contract saying you understand you are in this for 10 years and if you want to get out of your contract before the 10 years is up, you will pay a surrender charge. You wouldn't want to get out of your policy before 10 years unless you got stuck with a policy that was structured for the agent to get a big commission. The surrender charge depends on your premium amount and your age, health, gender.
Did you say on the set up of a IUL should be in a way that its for the lowest minimum death benefit available? purpose is to save on any fees or taxes? sorry trying to understand that part?
Yes. The way I structure IULs is for the maximum cash accumulation for you, the lowest commission for me and that is based on the lowest death benefit the IRS will allow. The reason is that you pay fees based on the death benefit, so we want it the lowest it can possibly be. If you need more life insurance, I can always quote you term insurance.
Very insight! Had no idea about the details of this. Thank you for sharing!
Great job explaining IUL's - many people don't understand them. Need to check other videos out on your channel.
Hello Laura🥰😊
Interesting! This is an important topic, and not up my alley. So thanks for making it.
Awesome video!
I don’t know enough about these topics! Your channel will be very helpful. Thank you!
Thank you for weeding out all the noise. All of this is so confusing and your video gives the tools to go into an establishment informed and prepared
Glad it was helpful!
Why not advised for people below 35? You stated it takes about 15 years to make significant returns, isn’t then better to join at early age and earn more returns for longer years?
IULs are great for any age except for those over the age of 65 because life insurance gets more expensive the older you get. Most of my clients are families -- mom, dad and the kids.
This is very helpful!
You are a great insurance communicator! Thank you!
Thank you, Harold! You made my day!
@@WealthProtectionLady as relatively new advisor I’ve always worked to hone my presentations. Ive seen it presented many ways. Until I discovered you I thought I was the best. 😂I like your style. Thank you for the amazing library you’ve created!
New subscriber !
Great video. It’s all about how you structure the policy.
Very helpful, thank you.
You are welcome, Veena!
Can one over 65 open an IUL?
I don't necessarily recommend an IUL for those over 65 but it depends on what you are looking accomplish. If it is saving for retirement and you want to retire in 5 years, you would need to contribute quite a bit to make it worth while.
Sue thank you for sharing. However, I see that IUL is not available in NYC. Is this correct? How do I go about signing up for those of us in the NY area?
Unfortunately, because insurance is state regulated, the IUL I sell is not available in New York. I wouldn't even know who to refer you to.
Very helpful....Very nicely explained
How do find a good person to structure
If you would like me to structure an IUL for you, you would first need to watch my videos on Properly Structured IUL, Life Insurance Loans and IUL on steroids. Then you can complete this form to talk with me: application.wealthprotectionlady.com/
thank you so much
You're welcome!
Tbh I don’t see any reason to fund a 529 vs this. Open the IUL as soon as the baby is born
My kids had 529 accounts and lost a good portion of it during 2008 Great Recession. You would never lose money in an IUL.
How do I find the best insurance company for the iul
If you are interested in an IUL, complete this application. I have access to an uncapped IUL with a 2% floor through Minnesota Life. form.typeform.com/to/SNfW1IBA
I have questions about currency that I may be getting can I put that in my iul for retirement
If you are referring to living in a foreign country, it's difficult with an IUL.

Hi, I think your information is very helpful. I would like to know more about Kaizen. Are you able to help? how much do I have to contribute per year for the first five years, and do I have to continue contribute after the five? Thanks
Hi, Vinh! The least amount you can contribute is $21,350 annually. After 5 years, you are done with contributions. You can start another Kai-Zen plan after that if you like. If you are interested in learning more, here is a link to my application.

Hi, Sharon! If you are interested in an IUL through me, you can complete this questionnaire and we can find a time to talk: application.wealthprotectionlady.com/
I wanna learn more
I applied for IUL but was not qualified because I didn't pass the medical exam. Is there other ways I can still apply without going through a medical exam?
I am so sorry! I can completely understand your situation and how disappointed you must be. Did you get any message like you could re-apply in 90 days? Unfortunately, life insurance is all about risk, so they avoid taking risks on health issues. You are welcome to schedule a time to talk with me. You could consider an annuity if you are looking for a safe place to grow your money. Here is a link to my calendar:
