Converting term insurance into a permanent life insurance policy can allow you to recover the cost of your insurance in a matter of a few years, insure that your premium will never increase, your death benefit will never expire, and in addition to this, build cash value equity in your policy that will continue to accumulate and grow tax free. (listen to understand more about this)

One of the best kept secrets about Life Insurance is convertible term insurance. Convertible term insurance allows you to take advantage of the low premiums of term insurance and lock in your insurability, and then down the road convert the term insurance into permanent life insurance that builds equity.... all without having to re-qualify for insurance.

We use convertible term life insurance and recommend it to our clients. 99% of term life insurance never pays a benefit. This is because term insurance becomes cost prohibitive with premiums as age of the insured increases.

We specialize in designing and selling Convertible Term Life Insurance, and Participating Whole Life Insurance for maximizing cash value and growth.

What is the most important factor in retirement planning? The philosophy and the financial habits you create.

John does financial planning for clients. Today he shares details about how he goes about creating a successful financial plan.

• What is his goal when he advises his clients?
• How does he make projections for his clients?
• How do you make calculations based on future assumptions?
• Whats the best way to save for education?
• How do you plan for retirement?
• How much money is enough? Can you calculate that number?

An important message on retirement is found in a parable of the Bible. A rich farmer who had an abundance of grain, decided to tare down his barns and build bigger ones to store up all his wealth. God rebuked this man for his actions and said to him, "You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own all the things you have prepared?" Luke 12:20

The take away from this is, there is a problem with greed and just storing up money for your own wants desires and needs and neglecting some of the more important things, like what happens to your soul when you die, or caring for the needs of those around you.
