Understanding the Philosophy and Profitability of Life Insurance
Life insurance can be seen as a profitable investment in its term insurance portfolio. The frustration lies in selling index universal life (IUL) policies for income, which involves overfunding and minimizing insurance coverage. However, life insurance should not be solely viewed as an investment but rather as a short to medium-term cash storage for opportunities. Unlike other investment options, life insurance offers stability, availability, and tax advantages, making it a favorable savings vehicle for those looking to save without the risks of the market or other investment avenues.
