10 Reasons Not to Buy an Indexed Universal Life Policy - Part 4

We are back for the final installment in this series! We have been reviewing an article that came out ten years ago with a similar title to our podcast episode. And this is the fourth in a series where we are going to unpack each of these ten points, these ten reasons, and help you understand the difference between an Indexed Universal Life policy and a Whole Life policy. We want you to hear both sides, so you are well-informed and can make the best decisions for yourself and your family. If you haven’t watched the first three in this series, you can watch those before this one to get caught up!

Today we are focusing on numbers three, two and one. #3 is “Guarantees are not calculated annually*”, #2 is “All of the above can be changed by the company” and #1 is “The risk is shifted back to the insured.” Listen as we explain what we think these mean and why they seem to be untruthful and inaccurate… and frankly, just don’t make much sense. We like to make these concepts simple and easy for you to understand. And if you have any questions, we have answers and reports we can share with you or your agent. Just reach out to bobby@renovatingretirement.com, and we’re happy to share!

Here is the article we have been reviewing: https://infinitebanking.org/the-top-10-reasons-not-to-buy-equity-indexed-universal-life/
