Planning for Long-Term SuccessWhat Are Dividends?What Does the Declared Dividend Mean?Dividends and Contractual IncreasesWhy Dividend Rates Don't MatterBook A Strategy Call Planning for Long-Term Success When you engage in the Infinite Banking Concept, it’s important to remember that you’re seeking long-term success—over your lifetime, but also for generations to come. Dividends can be a major part of that, but not in the same way you’ve been trained to think about them in the stock market. Dividends in the life insurance realm work a bit differently, and they may seem low to you if you’re used to chasing high rates of return.  [4:32] “[The ‘Seven Generations Legacy’ is] this idea and this concept of being able to create something that you can benefit seven generations ahead. And the thinking required to do something of that proportion means that you have to put systems in place that you yourself cannot fully control. You’re putting them in motion, you’re being the impetus, the starting point, the spark that starts something.” What Are Dividends? The technical definition of a whole life insurance dividend is a refund of excess premium. This is often used to detract from the value of dividends because it’s “just money that you overpaid.” However, this is just a definition for IRS classification and is not the reality of dividends if you actually examine a life insurance policy. Because once you examine a life insurance policy, you’ll see that those designed for cash value growth will eventually have a cash value that exceeds all premiums ever paid to the policy. So how could you be overpaying? Dividends are a portion of the company's profits that you receive as a partial owner of the mutual company you have a policy with. The company uses income from your premium payments to make investments into assets like bonds. When the company profits, they must share those profits with policy owners, and that comes in the form of a dividend.
