Discover how understanding risk, national debt, and taxes can transform your retirement strategy.
Doug Andrew and his team break down why so many near-retirees are overexposed to market risk, how inflation and the 4 percent rule can quietly sabotage your nest egg, and why properly structured Indexed Universal Life (IUL) may be the missing piece in your plan.
Uncover how IUL’s zero-percent floor, annual reset, and smarter indexing work alongside conservative design to preserve what you’ve built—even when volatility spikes.
Explore the real implications of a $36 trillion national debt, looming Medicare and Social Security shortfalls, and the government’s growing appetite for tax revenue, including your IRAs and 401(k)s.
This episode covers:
- Why risk tolerance rises dangerously near retirement—and how to correct it
- The simple math showing why many savers may need $6 million or more
- How moving from tax-deferred accounts to tax-free IUL can cut lifetime taxes
- The difference between market losses and IUL’s zero-percent floor and reset
- What really happens if the dollar “crashes,” and why bartering, not gold, rules
Whether you’re worried about outliving your money, higher tax brackets, or another market crash, these insights show how the LASER Fund and IUL can help you create tax-free income, protect your family, and build wealth that endures uncertainty.
