Your savings can be taxed if you set your life insurance up incorrectly.

Simply put, when you deposit “too much” into a life insurance policy, you create a “Modified Endowment Contract” (MEC.)

So, what are the disadvantages of a MEC?

• Any gains you make in your policy will be taxed at your individual tax rate upon withdrawal
• There’s a 10% early withdrawal penalty if you try to take out before 59.5
• Because of the 10% penalty, your money is less accessible

Worst part?

Once your policy has been established as a MEC, it’s impossible to overturn.

So, how do we avoid converting our policy into a MEC?

In today’s episode, you’ll discover how to make sure your policy remains tax free forever.
