    Here in New Zealand I've taken out a Life Insurance Policy with AA Insurance. It's called: "AA Life Cover". My Premiums (as I'm a 30 year old Male, Non-Smoker) are $15.29 NZD per fortnight for: $400,000 Cover. If I die early, then my Beneficiary gets: $10,000 straight away for Funeral Cover. If I get diagnosed with a Terminal Illness, then the whole amount gets paid out in a lump sum (tax free). Suicide is covered also after 13 months. Every year on the date I took out my policy my Policy Cover Amount is increased by a minimum of 2%. So that's about: $8,000 per year. That's pretty good. I'm happy with it. So if i kark it before my Mum & Step-Dad - then they will be looked after once I'm gone. 👍👍

    With whole life, the insurance company keeps the “cash value” when you die. Dependents Only get the death benefit. Also, the rate of return on the cash value is very low at best about 1-4% while you would average about 10% in the stock market over the long term. Also, insurance salesmen get huge commissions and fees off of selling you whole life policies. Often the first few years of premiums goes into fees and commissions, not the cash value.
    Please do independent research and do not take investment advice from insurance salesmen. They are not required to advise in your best interest

      Actually that’s not true at all . While obviously sales people get commissions for their work , agent to be licensed has to act in your best Interest . If they are not you can easily lodge a complaint with ( CCIR) .
      Also what you are saying about the policy commission being high is BS . It is based on the value of the policy. And only a few percentage points . So obviously Life policies have more commission than term policies .
      The insurance company pays the agent out of their pocket and then no different than a mortgage there is a higher percentage of your premium which goes towards covering commission and admin fees etc at commencement of your policy . Insurance agents are no different than realtors , the actual Commission rate is around 2.6% to 17% based on the policy and company . It’s paid out if first year of premiums along with your admin fees etc .

    it's better to buy term and invest the difference. Then you'll have a sizeable investment when your term is up and therefore should not longer have the need for insurance as you would be self-insured.

    • @Drefyxd
      @Drefyxd 7 років тому +9

      Keep in mind that investing the difference have a lot of issues as well:
      1. The risk. You can gain interest all you want, but there's no floor to your investments. All it takes is just one bad drop & your investment & time is gone just like that. Example, 2001 & 2008.
      2. What if your performance is not as good as you thought by the end of your term policy & you need more coverage? There's not a chance you can get another term. It will be more expensive because you age & your health condition is questionable, even uninsurable.
      3. What is considered sizable investment? Crossing your fingers to have a great performance in your non-guaranteed bottomless investment strategy with the time given by the term insurance? Or having coverage for the rest of your life with guaranteed floor so that your money is guaranteed safe?
      Buy term and invest the difference is great back then, when the interest rate is all time high, but not anymore. Most of the time, people who follow this strategy ended up spending the money they're supposed to invest, as most people have no discipline & self control. Also, this is one of the cause of the rise of unemployment. When people plan to retire with their 401k, IRA, or pension, during the year of 2001 & 2008, their portfolio went down so hard they can't afford to retire & have to go back to the work force. Baby boomers filled up lots of job spots when they're supposed to retire & ended up causing the younger generations to have a harder time finding a job.
      However, if you're an economic savvy & great with financial strategy, don't need anyone to plan your finance, you're extremely discipline with your money, have elite level self control, have the mind like Warren Buffett, I would recommend to follow the strategy to buy term & invest the difference...but this section would be considered a unicorn.

      chinesebaloni Completely irrelevant comparison… One is savings with no risk that can also be leveraged for other investments, the other is an investment w risk… Plus that rate of return does NOT include death benefit, which is probably double his cash value, and which would not be taxed.
      Not saying whole life is better than the S&P… Just pointing out they are totally different asset classes with different benefits and actually can complement each other very well.
      For instance, if you need income in a bear market, you can withdraw from life insurance and therefore don’t have to sell stocks when they are down. Also many business owners are now using whole life as collateral to borrow from banks at WSJ prime, which usually beats the hell out of equipment leases and other business financing. And if you’re saving for college in a 529… You will sabotage your kid’s chance of financial aid, whereas whole life is rarely considered an asset and can help families obtain grants or scholarships.

      RENE Rivera When you apply for Financial aid through the FAFSA, a 529 is an asset that will count against the aid your child will qualify for. Only rarely does a college consider whole life insurance cash value as an asset. So saving there instead of a 529 can greatly improve a child or grandchild’s financial aid package.

      Do you know what happens to mutual funds sitting in a bank when you pass away? All your assets are frozen including bank accounts, stocks, mutual funds etc forms part of your estate which is then subjected to probate. If you have a will in place, your estate might get settled in about a year and it will go to your beneficiaries after all the taxes and probate fee has been paid and deducted. If you don't have a will, it can take n number of years. Life Insurance and seg funds (mutual funds through insurance companies but with guarantees that mutual funds do not have) go to your loved ones within 30 days. The question is, do you want to put your loved ones through financial stress when they're going through such a huge emotional stress?

      please consider the fact that permanent insurance is about 5cents for every 1$ of whole life. Meaning you can get the amount you really need for an affordable price. Also, if you access your money as he says you will need to loan it to yourself at interest payable to the insurance company.(?) if you have loan out and pass away, your death benefit is lowered by your loan amount. 1 last thing. If you pass away, your family either gets the insurance or the cash value. They do not get both. So if you have a 100,000$ policy and 80,000$ in cash value when you die. your family gets the 100,000$ but the company keeps 80,000$,. so how much insurance did they really pay out? Term insurance is a lot less expensive, leaving you enough money to invest per month into mutual funds or other investments where it can grow significantly better than in an insurance product. Insurance is supposed to protect your building money, until you enough of your own money and don't need it anymore. I hope this helps

    This is a pretty fair and informative video. One caveat: a lot of universal life policies have collapsed, because the internal costs of the policies keep rising as people get older.
    IMO the best types of term insurance is convertible term (fairly cheap term insurance that can be converted to whole life if you wish). It’s good to keep your options open and it’s a way to have guaranteed permanent insurability without the high cost of whole life in the early years.
    (I don’t sell life insurance, but I write about it and I own convertible term).

      I would have to agree. Term with convertibility is the cheapest in the long run. Whole life costs a lot more and the cash value is pretty small compared to any kind of securities account. If you buy term with a guaranteed renew ability rider you can renew your term at the end of it even if you are on your deathbed because the rider guarantees your premium will only rise because of your age. And as far as your question @moviedude22 I don't know about firms or whatever but recently I have been working with a company called primerica and they sell term policies with some really nice benefits like a built in renew ability rider and a built in family rider. And they are quite cheap. I've personally seen a lot of people who have switched to term insurance and saved 100+ dollars a month. Plus they sell 35 year term and other companies mostly do not.

      If you cash out completely, you lose the insurance. If you die, the cash value goes to the insurance company and not to your heirs. At least that is my understanding based on this video:

      If you access your cash value, it does not cancel your insurance. But, you do have to pay that money back as you are borrowing in the form of a loan. The benefit of this is your money is still growing in the policy at the same rate of the loan you took out. So you are basically borrowing the money for 0% interest. When you pass away, your heirs will only receive the death benefit of your policy, which will be more than you ever put in.

So I get loan sharked on my own money? And again my family only gets the 500k, that took 5 to 10 years to build through the premiums, and zero from the cash value....hmmm how about an indexed universal plan vs. the whole life?

      Kurosu Ha you really can’t/shouldn’t compare whole life to other investments… One is savings with no risk that grows tax-free and can also be leveraged for other investments, other investments typically have risk, are taxable and aren’t as easy to leverage… Plus that rate of return does NOT include death benefit, which is probably double his cash value (might be 100x cash value the first year) and which would not be taxed.
      Not saying whole life is “better” than other investments… Just pointing out they are totally different asset classes with different benefits and actually can complement each other very well.
      For instance, if you need income in a bear market, you can withdraw from life insurance and therefore don’t have to sell stocks when they are down. Also many business owners are now using whole life as collateral to borrow from banks at WSJ prime, which usually beats the hell out of equipment leases and other business financing. And if you’re saving for college in a 529… You will sabotage your kid’s chance of financial aid, whereas whole life is rarely considered an asset and can help families obtain grants or scholarships.

      zolianu007 the total value of Life insurance is always the face value, which grows over time. The cash value is actually your “equity“ in the policy, the portion of the death benefit you can access through loans, withdrawals, or if you cancel the policy. It’s a little bit similar to how equity grows as you pay down a mortgage.

      Ryan Swope let me try to explain it another way. You build up equity over time in a home. If you sell a house and your mortgage is equal to half the value of the home, you don’t get the whole sales price as profit... You get half of it, because that was your equity in it.
      Whole life is a bit similar (though it’s not a perfect metaphor). The face value or death benefit is the entire policy value. The cash value is like equity-it’s the portion a policy owner can withdraw or borrow against. And as your cash value grows… So does the face value amount. But the policy is never worth more than the face value, just like a home is never worth more than its market value… Regardless of how much equity you have in it.
      Hope that helps! I’ve been writing about life insurance for 10 years, and it took me awhile to understand whole life.

      If you get a Term policy with ROP aka Return of Premium, then yes you can get your premiums back. Premiums are paid back minus the cost of insurance usually. Also, most term policies these days offer convertibilty, which means you can convert it to a qualifying permanent product without evidence of insurability. This can be greatly beneficial if health has declined since the Term policy went in-force.

      What you need greatly depends on your personal situation. I typically lean towards buying term life insurance (extremely cheap, especially at your age) for a long term, and take what you would have spent on whole life and invest it in the market. I'll use the speaker's own situation. If he had bought a term policy 25 years ago for $50 and invested the difference (about $336/mo) getting 8% average return from the market, he'd have over $300,000 instead of a little over $200,000 and he would OWN the investment. Technically speaking the insurance company owns his cash value now until he cancels it. Find me on FB and send me a message if you have questions --> facebook.com/ryan.swope.92

You can choose one with ROP return of premiums option where all premiums paid are returned if you outlive the term. The cover period will depend on when you think you will be financially independent and self insured.

    That's pretty sad. 25 years at that premium and cash surrender value comes out to a 4.6% rate of return. Why would you be impressed about that when you could make so much more in other investments. Even if the investment gurus out there are wrong on their high returns suggested you can still do better than this. My 401k took a hit in 2008-9 but came back just fine. When I learned more and changed my mix I made far more. Last year was freaky and I made close to 20%.

    Term insurance is for the people in the age group of 25 -30. Permanent insurance is for people above 40 years of age. Premium is low in term insurance compare to whole life insurance.

    Pay 20 times more in whole life insurance than term insurance because of this magical "cash savings." Thus, the only way to get money out of MY cash savings would be to BORROW against MY OWN MONEY (paying it back plus interest) or cancel the policy paying a huge "surrender" fee. Plus, when I die, the insurance company KEEPS the cash savings or they deduct it from the death benefit. Whole life insurance is one of the most expensive policies to buy while paying out high commissions to salesmen. Garbage.

    Help! I got lost when he said you can pay premiums in 10 years and you own the policy. what does that mean if anyone can explain a little better

    • @ryanswope1663
      @ryanswope1663 6 років тому +4

      It means you can pay more on the front end to not pay on the back end. A horrible inaccurate example might be paying $100/mo for $100,000 of coverage for life, OR paying $500/mo for 10 years and then you never have to pay again but you still have coverage til you die or cancel. What he (intentionally I'm sure) neglected to mention was that if you'd take that high premium you pay for 10 years and invest it in the market, you'd likely be much better off and wouldn't even need life insurance anymore.

      Term Life insurance.You can get covered for $500,000 for easily $25-$30 a month. I went with Zander Insurance. My wife and I got term insurance a few weeks after getting married.

      Absolutely, stick with term. If you have a solid job and aren't strapped for cash, begin investing now. You'll thank yourself later in life.

      @CityKids you should get a indexed universal life for 100,000 coverage since you’re a female it’ll be cheaper and you will be paying approximately 40$ or less

      CityKids it’s cheap for us to take permanent or universal. Term insurance is cheap for older ppl and maybe don’t have budget one.

    You forget to mention that the cash value on whole life insurance? Yea, it’s taxed. And if you die before claiming it, your beneficiary doesn’t get it!!! The insurance company keeps it!!
