Case 1
Client had $700,000 in cash and just wanted a safe place for a portion with a higher earnings potential vs. bank savings and money market rates. She wanted to keep funds liquid. Age 53 Female (Widow) Table 2 Rated Health.

We placed $400,000 into the North American (A+) Smart Builder Indexed Life Insurance product with the “Waiver of Surrender” option to keep the cash value liquid. Her worst case over the first year is still positive, but she should expect 3%-4% yield with average S&P 500 index performance.

Case 1
$1,000,000 30 Term Case for a 38 year old was requested. Once we discussed the case and the need we presented two alternative solutions. Cost $95 monthly for 30 year term.

First alternative – split up the case, $400,000 20 year term and $600,000 30 year term. This will save a few bucks since this was primarily for income protection and at age 60, after the 20 year term expires, there is less need until retirement age. Cost $87 monthly – save $100 year.

Second alternative – split up the case, $300,000 permanent with LTC of $12,000 monthly and $700,000 20 year term. Cost $182 for 20 years and then $140 for life. More cost, but will receive a benefit – either for LTC expenses or death benefit.

Case 2
Client age 57 (Widow) was beneficiary on 4 different annuities (2 IRA and 2 TSA). As the surviving spouse, she may continue these or move to her own IRA. We requested current statements for each account and called the carrier for each annuity to make certain we had all the information available prior to just jumping into providing an illustration.

We took the time to make sure the solution presented would be suitable and in the client’s best interest. Will your IMO/BGA do the same?

In this case, three of the four annuities were absolutely in the client’s best interest to move into her own IRA. They either didn’t have an income rider, the income rider wasn’t great and not needed, or there was an enhanced death benefit option. All waived surrender charges and/or MVA at death for the beneficiary. This client also wanted and liked the protection of what an Indexed Annuity Offered, so we went in search of a solid short term Accumulation product with an uncapped upside index? Some products are only offered to registered representatives and this was the case in this situation. We settled on a 5 year duration product for $250,000 and she still had over $500,000 in liquid cash assets to manage.

During the last week we have worked on dozens of life, long term care, disability and annuity cases working alongside our Advisers.

If you are not discussing these issues with your clients, then who will?

Westland is here to help you protect your clients, their, families, their businesses and their portfolio.

Case 1
Female Client age 60 has two adult children and she wanted to help them out by starting a life insurance program for each of them. The plan was to lock in their future preferred insurability and provide a bucket of tax free cash to help them out when needed or to supplement their retirements.

Mom is funding at $2,000 annually for a $250,000 Indexed Life Product for each.

Daughter: Age 28 (super preferred) At age 60, her cash value is expected to be about $160,000 and her death benefit about $400,000. At age 65, she could draw supplemental tax free annual income of about $22,000.

Son: Age 24 (preferred) At age 60, his cash value is expected to be about $250,000 and his death benefit about $500,000. At age 65, he could draw supplemental tax free annual income of about $42,000.

Super nice legacy gift from mom. You can also see that starting at a younger age has a better expected outcome – the power of compounding. If you have clients with children or grandchildren, these programs make great sense – starting for as little as $100 monthly.

Case 2
Clients owned a large dental practice and unfortunately were divorcing. She runs the business and nearly 20 staff and he is the rainmaker professional dentist. 50/50 ownership. Attorney is drafting the separation agreement and a buy/sell agreement. Both will continue working together in the practice, just not as husband and wife. Her concern, is that she wants the business to continue should something happen to her ex-spouse. This protects her salary and the value of the practice. They had the life insurance covered, but not disability. He had personal DI, but nothing protecting the business. We suggested both a business overhead expense policy and a Disability Buy Out Policy. The overhead expense policy, will allow her to continue the business with up to $50,000 monthly. With scaled back operations and temporary dentist help, she could now continue until a new dentist partner can be found or the practice sold or merged. Win Win!

This case happened because of the divorce situation, but any professional practice and many businesses might be a prospect and should consider this type of protection. Next time you go to your dentist, chiropractor, doctor or visit a business, ask the owner “what would happen if you didn’t come in tomorrow and might not return”. Asking the question, could set in motion a fantastic relationship.

Case 3
Mass Mutual case: Whole life review. Advisor was an agent of record on an existing policy that was originally purchased by a firm as key man protection. Since then, the company was sold and the Sales Manager, who was the key man, personally continued the policy at his separation from employment. We ran several in-force illustrations and walked the advisor through each so that he could present the options and have a quality discussion of the pros and cons of each. We offered to be available during the meeting or to even host the call or zoom meeting as the insurance expert working alongside the advisor.
