Guaranteed Universal Life

Do you need a permanent life insurance policy? But, have been procrastinating because you are concerned about the cost of permanent coverage. Then, you really should consider the new guaranteed universal life insurance policy (GUL). Modern guaranteed universal life insurance can now accumulate cash values like whole life, or have no cash value similar to term insurance.
There are a number of different permanent life insurance policies such as universal life, indexed universal life, variable life, and whole life. Most people automatically associate all permanent coverage with much higher costing premiums because of the savings element involved. These applicants typically jump into term life coverage assuming it is always the best option for paying lower premiums.
Keep in mind, we are strong advocates of the long time adage of “Buy Term, and Invest the Rest”. This philosophy is also embraced by popular radio and television personalities such as Dave Ramsey and Suze Orman. The idea is to buy cheap term insurance, and invest the premiums that would have been allocated towards permanent coverage.
However, if you need coverage for a longer period of time, permanent life insurance coverage is now available at a similar price point to term life. These policies are slightly more expensive then term insurance at younger ages, but the pricing spread lessens as people get into their 50’s and 60’s.
People are living longer because of continued improvements in medical science Why should your coverage die before you do? This is not like your parents whole life policy!

Pension Maximixation Life Insurance


Retiring Soon?






When you retire you typicall meet with a pension administrator to

review the various income options available.

These options, of course, are based in large

part on years of service and annual income

during the years preceding retirement.

But there is a second variable that is often

overlooked by retirees: the survivor's benefit.

Simply put, the survivor's benefit guarantees

that retirement income will continue

even if the retiree dies first. In other words,

in order to protect a spouse against a catastrophic

loss of income that would occur if

the retiree died first, the pension is often

arranged so that payments continue for the

longer of the two lives. Thus the spouse continues

to receive a pension income, even if

he or she outlives the retiring Member. This

is a very important benefit.

But it comes at a cost. If the pension is taken

in a "single life expectancy," the monthly

income will likely be hundreds of dollars

more than if the pension is distributed

through "joint life expectancy." The logic

here is simple: a joint life pension will, in all

likelihood, pay out over a longer period of

time than a single life pension. Thus the

monthly income is significantly reduced.



The Advantages of Pension Maximization

Pension maximization is not only viable; many couples actually prefer it over the spousal benefit for reasons other than pure mathematics. Why?
  • A life insurance benefit is 100% tax-free, while pension income is subject to income tax. (Remember this when comparing the two. For example, if you have a $100,000 pension spousal benefit and a $100,000 life insurance death benefit side by side, the pension payout becomes more like $70,000 after taxes, while the life insurance payout holds at $100,000.)
  • A life insurance death benefit is paid as a lump sum. The only way to get a lump sum with a pension is to accept a greatly reduced payout.
  • Money from life insurance is generational. A pension with a spousal benefit is void after the spouse dies.
  • You have more leniency to adjust or cancel your life insurance coverage if your needs change. There is no going back on your pension decision.
