    More Income with Less Risk-Move Your Money to Whole Life Insurance

    More Income with Less Risk-Move Your Money to Whole Life Insurance

    Are you worried about market volatility eroding your hard-earned retirement savings? In this episode, we reveal a powerful strategy to help you protect your assets and generate reliable, tax-free income in retirement.
    Discover how strategically moving a portion of your portfolio into whole life insurance can provide guaranteed returns, minimize risk, and offer greater flexibility in your golden years.
    We'll walk you through two compelling scenarios that demonstrate the potential of this approach. First, we'll explore how a 50-year-old can safeguard $500,000 of their assets by transferring them into a specially designed whole life policy, enabling them to enjoy a higher withdrawal rate than the traditional 4% rule.
    Then, we'll show you how a 40-year-old can lay the groundwork for a more secure retirement by allocating $50,000 annually to a whole life policy and using some of their investment gains to supercharge their tax-free income.
    By the end of this episode, you'll understand how whole life insurance can be a valuable tool in your retirement planning toolkit, providing stability, tax advantages, and peace of mind. Tune in now and take control of your financial future!

Join us as we compare indexed universal life insurance performance and risk characteristics to these traditional investment vehicles.
    You'll learn how this insurance product can dramatically outperform bonds while maintaining a similar risk profile, making it a valuable addition to your financial toolkit.

It’s the end of the world as we know it

As a life insurance agent here in Long Beach, NY, I’m always trying to find easy third party sources to reinforce my concepts. Not only do these guys hit the mark on that, but I (and my clients) have learned a lot from these guys. Love(d) this podcast. Amazing insider information shared in an easy and fun way that common non-financial services professionals can get. Sorry to see you guys sailing off into the sunset, however kudos to sticking to it for as long as you did on a regular basis.
