Wealth Building Tool

The life insurance aspect of these accounts is the main role of this account, so don’t mistake it as just and investment vehicle. There are fees and the cost of the insurance itself included in the premium, the feature to the life insurance called Cash Value is what makes it a tool for wealth accumulation.

You may think you need a ton of money to start one of these accounts but you don’t. This will all depend on your income, but if you are currently building a savings plan in your bank, you can safely put that into an IUL and allow it to grow. After understanding the concept of having a solid emergency fund of course.

If you’re looking into an IUL, have discernment for who you handle this business with and understand that it is a life insurance policy. Also, make sure that the policy stays in force until the insureds death (Age 120) to avoid a huge tax bill from the gain of the provision loan.
