Final Expense InsuranceWho/What/Why/Where/When

  17. How much will be needed and where will the funds come from? Expenses can include not only the cost of the funeral, but also unanticipated charges such as medical costs not covered by your health insurance, other unpaid bills, and even state and federal taxes. Funeral costs alone can be as much as $7,620 or even more, depending on where you live and your personal preferences. Since Social Security only pays a death benefit of $255 to the surviving spouse or dependent children of an insured participant, loved ones could be left far short of the amount they need to cover these basic expenses. Final Expense- How Much Is Needed?

  18. Unlike the high face value most regular life insurance policies contain, final expense insurance is written with a much lower face value and is intended solely to take care of the cost of a person’s final arrangements and costs of burial, etc.. • A “regular” life insurance policy ranges from $250,000 to $1,000,000 • A final expense policy is typically purchased for $5,000 to $50,000. Who Can Buy Final Expense Insurance Coverage? • Anyone can buy final expense insurance. • Most often, however, it is purchased by those who are near to death and do not already have a regular life insurance policy in place. • Many final expense insurance policies can be underwritten without the designated insured submitting to a medical exam. • These no-exam policies contain higher rates for the insurance, but are still less expensive to buy than regular life insurance because of the low face value of the policy. Final Expense Vs. Life Insurance

  19. Annuities

  20. Annuities – Fixed-Indexed Choosing the right accumulation vehicle for retirement can be difficult. With so many choices, which product(s) will be right for your client? • On one hand, you want the safety and guarantee of principal and credited interest. • On the other hand, most people prefer the potential of higher interest by being linked to the market—the return potential that a fixed-rate product cannot offer. In the past, the choices were either (1) receive the guarantee of principle and a minimum amount of interest, or (2) link to the market with the potential of higher returns, but also accept the downside risk to your principal. Now your clients can have the best of both worlds: guarantee of principal and the potential of market-linked growth with no risk of loss of principal due to market downturns. Enter the fixed index annuity concept, a concept designed to help your client reach their retirement goals.
