    Hi guys, please address when these 100+ year old mutual companies change their models to stock models. As you know, this has happened with major AAA and AA carriers in recent-ish years - very much to the detriment of those traditional whole life holders. Your plan works if the company stays mutual, but policyholders get kicked in the shins when they don't. Now they have rigid premiums, and no respite from divs in many cases. Devil's advocate alternative is the VUL which will allow for the escape hatch for nimble premiums and at least allows you to control the levers of portfolio design and funding amounts as they see fit for the given environment. There are riders to include to allow for immediate cash value to accrue if needed. Like many things, creating a protection portfolio of BOTH designs would be ideal. Both brings pros and cons to the table, but there's no golden egg. I appreciate this discussion - its a really good one. Keep it going guys.

    bottom line is these two guys combined have a lot more understanding than most of us riding on here. that's why you're on here. listening and not out there setting these policies up for people. stay on here for a while. learn what you can and be thankful that you learn who cares about who interrupted who. dumbasses making that comment sound like cry babies watching a boxing match and the boxing match is a greatest fight ever and it's an even match and then complain that they heard the ref blow a whistle like shut up and learn. that's all you can get. every time they open their mouth. it was knowledge straight knowledge. that's it. keep it up guys. keep up the great work. I'm a fan of both of you. you've helped me immensely. do great work for my clients as well as Chris Kirkpatrick. it's enhanced my life insurance career immensely!! and I have everyone's book and have read them. I'm on my second read except the and asset. I'll be honest that's my next one. haven't done that. I'll do it on the plane this weekend lol

    I like the Control Cost chart at 52:53 but two things not taken into consideration are inflation and velocity. Outstanding loan to invest acts as a hedge against inflation and reduces the breakeven return requirement on the investment - especially these days, there is an inflation arbitrage. Leverage obviously cuts both ways, but considering inflationary hedge allows for assuming a lower risk investment since breakeven rate becomes a lower #. As for velocity, having outstanding loan balance allows for a productive place for incoming cash to be swept… resulting in lower daily balance of loan and therefore increased ROI with the lowering denominator

      I’m in the same boat as you. I converted a term policy a couple of months ago to an early cash value policy.
      It was scary because my agent had to be schooled on how to design it. Luckily it’s with Northwestern and he was able
      To get the base low enough for me to be able to accumulate early cash value.
      I would have gone with Guardian if I didn’t need to convert the existing Term policy to stay out of medical underwriting.

    I like the comparison chart of the different accounts and their characteristics. I would change the following about it:
    -Separate 401K and IRA, because technically a 401K would have some leveragability and is somewhat accessible through 401K loans. This could especially be utilized by a solopreneur who rolls an old 401K or IRA into a soloK and borrows 50% to capitalize on other opportunities. In this case, I would color code this as orange for the 401K.
    -I would say that Roth IRA is orange on the Easily Accessible category, only because you can withdraw principal and can utilize the 5 year rule for limited eligible distributions.
    Otherwise, this chart is a powerful way to show the versality of whole life!

    I was talking to a chat box in a life insurance website
    ME: So, in the calculator I have put $30 Mil as the coverage amount for 20 years
    and the yearly comes to around $11k
    So would you mean that this is the most expensive ever?
    avatar
    Mike 01:30
    That is a pretty high amount for insurance, some companies will not do that. But some will! If there is too much cash value in any one policy the government considers it an investment tool and you lose your tax benefits.
    They call it a Modified Endowment Contract, or MEC
    Could this be a problem like Mike told me?

      @@vangustia are we assuming in a whole life we keep an increasing term for the life of the policy? Or do we eventually cut off the term costs in whole life? If you cut the term in a whole life then you can show the term being cheaper than a term on an IUL for the life of the policy. It would be interesting to do a case study that shows the term costs year by year on a whole life and an IUL. I haven’t seen that video yet anywhere but it would be good content

BUT ... they won't know what the new WL rate will be correct? I'm thinking that is an out for the insurer because if the person is compromised medically, the insurer can JACK the rate to avoid having to insure on the new WL policy? Do I have that right?

    A properly structured whole life policy is one that pays the most commission and fees to the salesman and insurance company. A properly structured life insurance and investment strategy is one that includes a term policy and a good high ROI fund. That way you get all the insurance you need and an investment whose "cash value" is all yours or your heirs. Why do whole life salesmen want you to over fund your policy? Because they (the insurance company) gets to keep "your" cash value when you die and they only pay out the death benefit.

    These policies have no equity, cash value is just your money. They only grow from overpayment for insurance. Not really assets at all, then you pay to borrow your own money back at 5% interest and then it is taken out of your death benefit when you die. If you leave any cash value the insurance company keeps it and not your heirs. Good ideas but the wrong tool for the job.

    • @jordanperrault5039
      @jordanperrault5039 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      You do not have a good understanding of it.
      WL is basically like insuring yourself.
      Ex. If I get a 100k WL policy.
      I build up the cash value to say 50k..
      I am ONLY paying for the Extra 50k to get to get to 100k.
      If I structured the policy to have cash value increase super fast then there is less and less insurance that I am paying for.
      If I hit a certain threshold in the cash value by law they have to increase the death benefit as there needs to be a gap between the CV and the insurance.
      Now as for the loan part. Think of it as taking a HELOC out on your home... or how Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, etc fund their life.
      Get paid in stock options, leverage a portion of the value of the stock (let's say 40%) then they use the tax free cash to make more investments, buy the yachts, land, lifestyle, etc.. then just make interest only payments.
      Same with CV in the policy.
      You leverage your CV to borrow from the Death Benefit at 5% simple interest... use the money for what you need/want.
      Can make interest only payments every year or pay it off in increments. Or can pay it off before the year is up before they tag it with the 5% interest...
      It's all how you structure it all..
      Also.. rather 5% simple interest every month instead of variable interest rate on credit card of 15-30%
      Or a loan from the bank
      All time constraints really suck.
      Insurance is all about safety, control, access, time, etc.
