    Are there any questions you'd like us to cover in our next video on the infinite banking concept?

      VIP Financial Education does ibc require a physical or medical check up? Also, what is a good amount to get started with?

    • @VIPFinancialEd
      @VIPFinancialEd  4 роки тому

      Jakem723, sometimes but most insurance carriers can use technology to access your medical history through the Medical Information Bureau to verify everything checks out. If there is a red flag found there then they may request a physical. In other words it does depend on each individual applying. A good amount to start with will depend on your finanical goals and recommend chatting with a licensed professional such as our Cash Flow Ninja, MC. If interested, please send email to: ninja@vipfinancialeducation.com. Thanks for watching!

    Far and away the BEST video I've seen on the infinite banking concept. From the explanation of what it is, what is best used for, and especially at what point of your financial journey you are on as to whether or not it's a good fit. Seems like many other channels seem to skirt around specific dollar amounts where this concept could work for you, when it should be the number 1 consideration, instead of overextending yourself monetarily for something that isn't even truly needed at a certain time. Like you said, sometimes it is nice to be ruled out.

    Matt, good to see you bring up IBC again. A couple of comments. MC didn't cover this when you were questioning the death benefit. The death benefit always has to be higher than the cash amount by a certain amount (MEC limit) to keep the policy from becoming a MEC (modified endowment contract), or simply stated....TAXED. As long as the policy is structured properly the policy is always tax free, even upon distributions at retirement. The death benefit increases as the cash grows to ensure the MEC is never breached. This is done by a specialized rider. For your viewers, this is not a typical whole life policy that you can go down to your insurance agent and have them write up. It takes a agent that specializes in it. Great topic Matt!

    • @VIPFinancialEd

    How should a person decide between a VUL, IUL, or Whole Life when setting up an infinite banking system for themselves?

    • @VIPFinancialEd
      @VIPFinancialEd  4 роки тому +4

      Gabriel Rockman, depending on your financial goals, one aspect is your risk tolerance as each one has different risks. A Variable Universal Life (VUL) is the most risky since it goes up and down with the stock market and a Whole Life policy is the most conservative with the IUL being moderate risk. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

    • @gabrielrockman
      @gabrielrockman 4 роки тому

      @@VIPFinancialEd That makes sense. I've chosen an IUL with moderate risk.
      I really like the idea that instead of the living expenses portion of my retirement savings disappearing each year, that they actually stay in my retirement savings, but instead I have a loan for that amount, and the interest rate on the loan should be lower than the expected growth of the cash value. When I've got loans for 20+ years of retirement savings, it'll be a huge increase in the growth rate of my retirement savings to be gaining a net growth of maybe 2% or 3% on 20+ years worth of living expenses. But that's where the moderate risk of the IUL is better than the larger risk of the VUL for me - having loans for 20+ years of retirement expenses is certainly risky.
      It looks like the key to doing this strategy safely is the gap between the cash value of the policy and the loan balance. I could safely have millions in loans as long as there's a gap of millions more in cash value than in outstanding loans. That's where the possibility of the cash value dropping in a VUL scares me, and why I prefer the cash value protection of the IUL.

      @@VIPFinancialEd My policy is currently only for $3600/year, but I'm likely increasing it to $12000/year next April and putting in a lump sum of $40k. Right now it's just a small part of my retirement savings, but I'm considering making it a centerpiece of my retirement savings.
      Is it unwise to make a cash value life insurance policy the home of more than half of your retirement savings? What's your advice to someone that is considering making this a centerpiece of their retirement plan, supplemented by a Roth and a 401k, rather than making the Roth and 401k the centerpieces of their retirement plan and just using cash value life insurance as just a supplement?

    I'm still unsure about this concept, only for the reason that it's an excellent idea when your young, however, the older you are (like me), the less "financially appealing" it becomes. Mostly due to value of "Death Benefit" significantly declining, as you age. Also, the "Cash Value" doesn't start to equal what you put in it for multiple years. Not appealing to someone older.

    • @VIPFinancialEd
      @VIPFinancialEd  4 роки тому +4

      💯💯 age / health is probably the biggest road block I’ve identified too.

    • @VIPFinancialEd
      @VIPFinancialEd  4 роки тому +4

      Patrick, while these are definitely considered long term contracts where the longer you have them to grow, the better but you can structure your policy to have a level or increasing death benefit. You are correct that the cash value doesn't equal to what you put in for multiple years... again why it's certainly considered a long term contract. These can be a good idea for older folks when parking a lump sum of dollars into them, again when structured properly with the death benefit too. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

    If were taking whole life why not get just get term life insurance and invest the difference since whole life is more expensive. If you die you only keep one or the other? That doesn't sound right since its your investment money Sounds like when you borrowing your own money. Does that money have to be paid back with intererst? 🤔

    • @VIPFinancialEd
      @VIPFinancialEd  4 роки тому +3

      Ada Hampton, once the term coverage ends then the price quadruples, from there most people will cancel it and leave them with no coverage. Term also doesn’t build cash value as whole life does which allows you to grow your money safely. When taking a loan out of a whole life policy, you do pay interest on the loan but the money never leaves your policy so that money is still collecting interest. In other words it acts as a wash. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

      Suzanne Ito, if that ever happens which I'm not convinced it will, these policies are still assets and would be converted into the current digital currency that would take place of the U.S. dollar. These policies also have many other benefits to them that are in the form of a contract between the carrier and policyholder and the insurance companies are not in the business of defaulting on their promises as that's bad business. Of course there are come companies to stay away from when doing this type of policy structure. Thanks for watching!

    I would like to add one last thing for your viewers, Matt. It sounded like MC stated that guaranteed growth rate of 4% And 6-7% dividend. I think he meant 6-7% total return. But keep in mind that a 7.5% return in the market, such as a 401k investment (taxable) equates to a 5.59% tax-free account :) Assuming average American household at 22% federal tax rate and average 4.5% state tax rate.

      Also, a 401k or IRA's offer no protection from a lawsuit, judgement or garnishment. Any good attorney can pierce your bank accounts or brokerage accounts and even take your businesses and your home. They would all happily give up your money to a collection or claimant. Also, Banks and brokerages offer no protection from hackers and id thieves. Maybe they could get some kind of judgement from your Whole Life Policy (doubtful) and hope they live longer than you, but I would just start a new policy.

      The insurance will subtract the policy face value from the unpay loan's. Any money left over from the policy face value will be given to the beneficiary.
