  • 113: What Term Insurance REALLY Costs You
    Jul 19 2024

    When comparing term insurance costs to whole life insurance, you can't use grade school math and add up the premiums paid over time.

    With money, we must use financial math to account for the time variable. When we do that, the numbers tell a much different story than what the "buy term, invest the difference" people tell.

    The true cost of term insurance could be tens of millions or more!

    Join us today as we once again examine some numbers to reveal the truth about what term insurance really costs.

  • 111: The Real Costs of Term vs. Whole Life Insurance
    Jul 5 2024

    When comparing the costs of term life insurance vs whole life insurance, we can't just compare the premium prices and call it a day.

    Because whole life insurance is an asset that builds equity, not all premiums are a true cost like they are with term insurance.

    In this episode, we break down the math and provide a real, apples-to-apples comparison of the true costs of term vs. whole life. Check it out!

  • 110: Why You Should Just "Say No" to IUL
    Jun 28 2024

    In today's episode, we discuss a misleading IUL ad we found on Instagram. We break down the numbers to explain why this ad (and IUL in general) is, in our professional opinion, a smoke-and-mirrors game.

    Indexed Universal Life (IUL) is often touted as "unbundled whole life insurance" or, worse, just like an investment but with no risk...

    Nothing could be further from the truth. IUL is not an investment, and it's not just "unbundled whole life," either.

    Tune in to learn all about IUL.

  • 107: 3 Cases for Single Premium Whole Life
    Jun 7 2024

    We have spent a lot of time discussing why paying premiums is great and why we should want to pay them for as long as possible. From an Infinite Banking perspective, why would we not want to capitalize our "bank" to the greatest extent possible?

    This begs the question: is it ever appropriate to not pay a premium for a long time?

    A "Single-premium" whole life policy is designed for one premium, and that's it. As usual, there are significant tradeoffs to this type of design, the biggest of which concerns taxes.

    Tune in to this episode and learn about three potential use cases for a single-premium whole life insurance policy.
