    Out of all the IUL videos explaining these types of policies, this is by far the most elaborate and easy to understand. I was a property amd casualty agent and trust me when I say she is a real agent you can trust. I think that even if you don't make the 100k if you take a policy and use her example you can take a loan out against the policy amd invest the money on an ETF or brik amd mortar then repeat the process and within 2 years you will make 100k plus and apply for the zen policy she talks about and repeat the process once again. UIL or IUL is the way to go.

    The problem with IUL the illustration on the reurns are not what agent think they are and the people who put money into them. Most agents use 6.4% and typically returns are half that and surrender charges are very long

    • @WealthProtectionLady
      @WealthProtectionLady  9 місяців тому +2

      The 6.4% you refer to is the maximum illustrated rate which varies by carrier and index. Not all IUL's are created equal. An IUL is all about the index, how it performs, what it guarantees and the loan provisions offered. The index I use (the 3-year S&P PRISM index) is the #1 Best Performing Index in the industry with an average annual return since its inception in 2018 of 17.04%. The combined participation rate is 335% and guaranteed at 100%. It is also the lowest cost IUL in the industry. At the end of the day, even a properly structured IUL in an expensive product which could be up to 10 times more expensive than the IUL I offer, will never make money. The problem is that most agents don't want you to know how much it's going to cost you, so they don't attach the charges.

    One of the main reasons to get a life insurance policy is to be able to take care of loved ones you leave behind. If this is the goal, doesn't the first option with the highest commision to the agent yield the greatest amount left to your loved ones (cash value + death benefit)? I can see how the 3rd option is the best if your goal is to establish the highest cash value for income at retirement. Since this channel focuses on wealth, I can understand the argument. Am I seeing this correctly?

    • @WealthProtectionLady
      @WealthProtectionLady  Рік тому +1

      Hi, Yia! If you want life insurance, buy term. It's cheaper. An IUL is not about the life insurance. It's about maximizing your cash value so you want the lowest death benefit the IRS will allow. This way, you're not paying for expensive life insurance within an IUL.

      I should probably redo this video because I wouldn't say that today. An indexed product is all about the index and when I made that video, I did not have access to the S&P PRISM index. Now, I do and because this index is the #1 Best Performing Index in the industry with an average annual return of 22.07% (including par rates), you can build a reasonable cash value in as little as 3 years.

    Very nicely done video, I enjoyed the presentation, and how easily understandable you explained IUL's. You asked what line people would like to invest in, and I would be in the S&P. Looking at the climbs and falls, there is opportunity in those times. IUL line graph is a bit more level, but, it is also partially based on the S&P. It looses some of it's upward momentum because there are a few times where markets didn't show return, so upward options seem to have been useless. Many people don't like the idea of markets loosing money, but, it is in those opportunities that money is made. At the end of your graph, The IUL policy made about half of what the S&P did, for a few years. Looking straight at the numbers, IUL policy posted a higher number. The S&P is more financial power behind it's volatility.

      The chart she presents seems fake. If you just look at a chart like VOO you don't see drastic dips like she presented. Life insurance products aren't bought but sold.
      Investing in good companies is like being part owner of companies. Good companies will continue to distribute profits back to shareholders in either price appreciation or dividends. Having a diversified portfolio will minimize risk. Speculation is assuming price will go up not based on fundamental analysis. If you invest in strong companies with good financials, free cash flow, price/earnings-to-growth ratio, and price-to-book ratio then you could make a prediction that the price will increase. The historical average yearly return of the S&P 500 is 10.05% over the last 20 years, as of the end of April 2023. This assumes dividends are reinvested. Adjusted for inflation, the 20-year average stock market return (including dividends) is 7.335%. Your profit will be taxed at the long-term capital gain rate, which is either 0%, 15% or 20%, depending on your income. Compared to recent returns of 2021 28.71%, 2020 18.40%, or 2019 31.49%, IUL has a lower return rate. Life insurance companies know this and that's how they can suggest safe returns because they give you a lower average and keep the difference. They just want to scare people that investing is scary and you can lose money. If you are unsure and need a plan then talk to a financial advisor instead of life insurance agent.

In addition if you set up your investments on DRIP,dividend reinvestment plan, you automatically invest when prices are cheaper or higher but in the end it averages out.

    @13:00 So the only way to maximize cash accumulation value is to decrease the death benefit? What if the person wants both a higher DB and cash accumulation? To me, it sounds like you can either minimize DB so you maximize cash accumulation or vice versa. If you take the former, then why not just get term life and put the cash into an index fund?

    • @WealthProtectionLady
      @WealthProtectionLady  Рік тому +2

      An IUL is not about the death benefit. If we didn't have to have that we wouldn't, but it's the only way to get benefits that seem too good to be true. It's the difference between what you can do with a life insurance policy that you cannot do with an investment account. So, we want the death benefit to be as low as possible because you pay fees on that. If you want more life insurance, purchase term insurance.

    Somethings I see that aren’t addressed: cost of insurance as you get older. The client has to plan to pay more in premium as he goes along or it comes out of his cash value. The other thing is risk. This is using insurance as an investment and the risk moves from the insurance company to the client. As along as someone knows these facts about IUL at least he can’t say he wasn’t warned.

      IULs can look really good on paper, but it's all about the index and the performance of that index and what it guarantees. The fees on some policies can eat you alive, So many people don't even know what index/es they are invested in.

    • @WealthProtectionLady
      @WealthProtectionLady  3 роки тому +2

      Thank you, Kathryn! It takes about 15 years for an IUL to really start to take off because IUL fees are front loaded for the first 10 years. What I tell my clients who are older (I'm 61) is to consider a flexible premium deferred index annuity that is uncapped and has a 120% participation rate, which means...your account would be credited with 120% of the index gain. One of the biggest differences with an annuity is not getting a tax-free income. If you are interested in seeing an illustration for either the IUL or an annuity, just complete this application and we can go from there.

    In your 401K Vs IUL income comparison section, Client B with an IUL receives over $3 million in total withdrawals by age 100, and his family receives death benefit of over $3 million as well. I thought that client's withdrawals go to reduce the death benefit so that the beneficiary only receives the net death benefit (minus withdrawals + policy loans, ...) at the end. Are you suggesting that client B and his family (beneficiary) received both the policy's death benefit as well as the account value combined at age 100? If so, why and what death benefit option would you use to structure the policy to achieve this outcome? Your response is appreciated.

    • @WealthProtectionLady
      @WealthProtectionLady  Рік тому +1

      You want to have the increasing death benefit option while you are contributing a premium, even though it is a little bit more expensive than the level death benefit option, but the level db option limits how much of your premium can go into the index. While you are on the increasing db option, the beneficiary would receive the death benefit (which is the initial db plus the cash value). When you are on the level db option, the beneficiary receives the death benefit plus the surrender value.

    Because it is a life insurance contract, the insurance premium increases annually? and the premium expands as the account grows (in order to remain compliant with IRS rules)? The premium increases as the insured ages? the death benefit may grow, but isn't that because your "savings" grows? It doesn't seem to be as straightforward as this explains it.

    • @WealthProtectionLady
      @WealthProtectionLady  Рік тому

      The premium is what you are contributing to the policy. The premium is going to earn interest in the selected index which will then grown your cash accumulation. The premium doesn't increase as you age. You may be thinking about the cost of insurance which is annual renewable term and does increase as you age. With the increasing death benefit option, the death benefit grows because the death benefit is your initial death benefit plus your cash value.

      It's not structured for the cash value to be larger than the death benefit per se. At the end of the day, an IUL is not about the death benefit. It's about maximizing your cash accumulation, so we always want the LOWEST death benefit the IRS will allow.

I believe the average person cancels or cashes in their policies in that 10 -15 year time frame... plus as usual... if you die while this policy is in-force... the insurance company keeps your cash value... only the face amount less policy loans go to your beneficiaries... her illustration at the 8 minute mark is total fabrication because her poor smuck of a client is paying high premiums to keep this policy in-force... and those policy loans at age 65 and moving forward will cannibalize his policy in a compounded rate of reduction... a ticking time bomb...

For safety, I linked the index to the S&P as an annual Point-to-point, got them good carriers with all 3 ADB's and used an increasing DB on all. I suppose they haven't been in them long enuf since right now the cash-value isn't something to write home about. Disappointing because the market was doing great for a stretch.

      Yes, you can purchase an IUL with a Green Card and you can take a loan to fund your business; however, the only loan available in year one is the fixed loan and you don't want to take that loan because when you do, that loan amount comes out of your policy altogether.
