Common Questions
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about insurance planning and annuity strategies for wealth protection and income generation.
How much life insurance do I need?
Life insurance needs depend on your income, debts, family situation, and financial goals. Generally, coverage of 10-15 times annual income is recommended, but high-net-worth individuals may need significantly more for estate planning purposes.
What's the difference between term and permanent life insurance?
Term insurance provides temporary coverage at lower cost, while permanent insurance combines death benefits with cash value accumulation. Permanent insurance is typically better for estate planning and wealth transfer strategies.
Are annuities a good investment?
Annuities serve specific purposes like guaranteed income and principal protection. They're not investments per se, but insurance products that can complement an investment portfolio by providing guaranteed income and reducing longevity risk.
When should I consider long-term care insurance?
LTC insurance is most cost-effective when purchased in your 50s or early 60s while healthy. Consider it if you have assets to protect, want to preserve inheritance, or lack family support for potential care needs.
How much disability insurance can I get?
Typically, you can obtain disability coverage for 60-85% of your income, up to certain limits. High earners may need multiple policies or executive plans to achieve adequate coverage, especially considering bonus and equity compensation.
Can I change my annuity after purchase?
Most annuities offer some flexibility during the accumulation phase, including fund transfers and withdrawal options. However, changes may involve fees or surrender charges. Immediate annuities typically cannot be changed once payments begin.
