Why Does A Max-Funded IUL Pass The Safety Test For Money Better Than Banks And Credit Unions - YouTube

I'm going to address why does a聽 max funded IUL pass the safety test
[6]
for money better than banks and credit unions. Get ready, by the end of this episode, you will
[12]
understand why legal reserve insurance聽 companies are the backbone of America.
[29]
So, I'm Doug Andrew I've been a financial聽 strategist for north of 48 years helping people聽聽
[36]
optimize their financial assets and also other聽 assets on the family balance sheet. We talk about
[41]
those on this channel. These are the intellectual聽 and foundational assets that all of us possess.
[47]
But this episode is talking about聽聽
[50]
money and so when people have聽 come to me for nearly five decades
[56]
they want to be able to set aside their money聽 in a safe environment. Where hopefully they聽聽
[63]
will not lose principle and they want it in聽 safe institutions. When we talk about safety聽聽
[70]
there's actually two different definitions. One聽 is the safety of the institution. A lot of people
[78]
think that money in a bank or a credit union is聽 one of the safest places to deposit money. Why?聽
[86]
Because it has that FDIC insurance聽 on it. Did you notice? It's insurance
[94]
that makes it safe but who's the insurance a聽 company operated by at a bank? Federal deposit
[101]
insurance the government. People聽 sort of go, "Well, the government聽聽
[106]
they can always sort of print more money聽 or taxes", yep and so people get sort of聽
[113]
lured聽into a sense of I think聽 false security thinking,
[118]
"Oh, the government is protecting this so the聽 safest place is to have my money in a bank". Well,
[124]
let's talk about the second definition of聽 safety and that means safety of principle聽聽
[131]
or safety of keeping up with the purchasing聽 power of the dollar because of inflation.
[138]
Because when the government prints and prints聽
[140]
more聽money that causes聽 inflation and you didn't really
[144]
have safety of your principal or if your money is聽 invested in the market and the market goes through聽聽
[150]
its gyrations, you can lose your principle. A聽 lot of people don't think about this. So, I like
[157]
to use both definitions. I want聽 the safety of the institution.聽聽
[161]
I want to put my money where the banks
[163]
put their money for liquidity and safety. But I聽 also want to have safety of principle which means
[169]
I don't want to lose money that I invest into聽 the investment or the instrument financially.
[177]
I want to protect my principle but any year聽 that I make money I want that money that profit聽聽
[187]
to become newly protected principal. Meaning, I don't want to ever lose in future years聽聽
[195]
money I've made in previous years. Most financial聽 advisors don't know how to do that. They just say,
[201]
"Oh, just hang on. You know, when it goes down聽 it'll come back up again. Hang on the market
[206]
always comes back", and so what happened in聽 2001, 2002, 2003, many Americans lost 40%
[215]
on their retirement nest eggs. They maybe聽 had a million bucks in the year 2000 it聽聽
[220]
was only worth 600,000 by the end of 2003. It took four years to make back what they lost.
[225]
They were just back to break even again. Now, people聽using my favorite vehicle they had safety聽聽
[230]
of principle it's what I call a Laser Fund liquid聽 asset safely earning return spells and acronym
[236]
laser and so they did not lose their million. They聽 may not have made very much in 2001 to 2003 but
[243]
they didn't lose. They were protected from loss and聽then in 2000, 4, 5, 6, 7, they were able
[250]
to make money at the end of 2007, their million聽 was worth as much as 2 million when most people聽聽
[256]
were barely back to break even. Because they did聽 not lose when the market went down they had safety聽聽
[260]
principle and then they made money and so they聽 had 2 million then what happened in 2008? The
[265]
market dropped 40% again. People's million-dollar聽 nest egg that they finally got back to break even聽聽
[271]
went down to 600,000 again for the second time聽 in a decade. The people using my favorite vehicle聽聽
[277]
The Laser Fund their 2 million just stayed there聽 at 2 million in 2008 they didn't lose what they聽聽
[283]
had made the previous four years and in 2009 they聽 started making money again and instead of waiting聽聽
[289]
four years to get back to break even which most聽 Americans, it took till 2012 for their 600,000 to聽聽
[296]
come back to a million again to break even. That's聽 why we call it the great recession or or the lost聽聽
[302]
decade it was actually 12 years. Many people ended聽 up with tripling their money in that time period聽聽
[306]
because they did not lose when the market went聽 down. They may not have made very much but they聽聽
[312]
didn't lose and they started making money again.聽 This is called indexing. This is how you have聽聽
[319]
safety of principle. So, let's talk about what聽 this means historically. But before I go there,

I post a new episode which I do almost on聽 a daily basis. But stay with me to the end,聽聽
[346]
I want to gift you a copy of my 300 page book The聽 Laser Fund absolutely free. I'll pay for the book.聽聽
[353]
So, folks, during the great depression聽 we had banks close, real estate dropped聽聽
[359]
80%and there were 40% of banks that never聽 reopened again. There was not one single legal聽聽
[364]
reserve insurance company that went under in the聽 great depression. Money was safe in those. Maybe聽
[369]
you聽only earned two and a聽 half or three percent but
[372]
when things go really bad people get more聽 concerned about the return of their money instead
[376]
of the return on their money. In 2008 we had 400聽 banks go under in that you know mortgage meltdown.
[384]
900 more were on the brink of going under it聽 was called the watch list and how many legal聽聽
[389]
reserve insurance companies went under in 2008? Zero. In fact, the federal government asked the
[394]
five major banks to disclose where they have their聽 tier-one assets for liquidity and safety and the聽聽
[400]
bank said, "Well, in insurance companies", because聽 insurance companies are usually rated six notches聽聽
[406]
higher in safety than most banks are rated.聽 A lot of banks are only rated maybe triple聽聽
[412]
B by standard poorest. A lot of this insurance聽 companies are rated double a or aaa you may not聽聽
[418]
know but that's like six notches higher in safety. Do you know what the banks are doing? In 2008 they
[424]
were going well. Yeah, we are taking the聽 public's money and people deposit money in a bank聽聽
[429]
and the banks were paying one percent let's聽 say not even that high and they're turning聽聽
[434]
around and increasing the safety by about five聽 or six notches higher in safety by putting some聽聽
[439]
of your money into insurance companies and they聽 are increasing the rate of return because they're聽聽
[445]
earning more like five percent. Five percent is聽 how much more than one percent don't say four.
[451]
They're paying you ten thousand dollars of聽 interest on a million dollars in their bank聽聽
[456]
and they're turning around making fifty聽 thousand. Fifty thousand is five hundred聽聽
[460]
percent or five times ten thousand. This is how聽 money works but they're increasing the safety.
[466]
You can bypass the middleman and put your聽 money straight into the insurance company聽聽
[471]
and use what banks do. They have bank-owned聽 life insurance that's called BOLI聽聽
[476]
bank-owned life insurance that's an acronym. Who聽 do they own it on? It doesn't matter stockholders聽聽
[480]
board of director members or whatever. It's the聽聽
[483]
owner of the insurance policy that gets聽 all the tax-free accumulation and so forth.聽聽
[489]
Remember that, there's other episodes on this聽 channel that'll help you understand this concept.
[493]
The point is this, legal reserve聽 insurance companies are the聽聽
[497]
backbone of America and the backbone of the world聽聽
[500]
and that's where many of these other聽 financial institutions put their money.
[505]
That's where many governments go to for help聽 when they get into trouble. When banks and聽聽
[509]
credit unions put 30 to 40 percent of their tier聽 one assets into insurance companies for liquidity聽聽
[517]
and to increase the safety we聽 ought to be thinking, "Hmm...聽聽
[521]
why don't I take advantage of that? Why don't
[524]
I bypass the middle man?", well, you can and so聽 the point is most insurance companies are rated聽聽
[532]
five six notches higher in safety than most banks. So, why would you feel better about having your聽聽
[541]
money in a bank down the street because it has聽 a drive up window and you think that's liquidity聽聽
[548]
when really that's just convenience. Why would聽 you have your money in a bank or credit union聽聽
[552]
thinking that's the safest way because if FDIC. What does FDIC mean? Federal Deposit Insurance.聽聽
[560]
Why rely on the government's insurance company聽 that sometimes has almost been on the brink of聽聽
[565]
going broke when they bailed out you know聽 the savings and loans industry or in 2008聽聽
[571]
because you want to go straight to where they put聽 their money and so that's what I'm talking about.聽聽
[578]
Serious cash whether it's emergency funds,聽 retirement planning, working capital for business.聽聽
[584]
I put all of that into IUL indexed universal life.聽
[589]
I maximum fund it. I'm聽 earning great rates of return
[592]
netting me 8, 9, 10, percent tax-free. But it's聽 liquid and it's safe. As far as I'm concerned
[600]
it's the last domino that would fall if we had聽 a total financial collapse in America and you聽聽
[606]
would have so much warning from all of these other聽 institutions going under that you could grab your聽聽
[612]
money but let me ask you something. Where would you聽put it? If it's that bad the American dollar聽聽
[618]
would be worthless. You better be able聽 to grow carrots in your backyard even聽聽
[622]
owning gold and silver won't help you in that聽 situation because you can't eat the gold and聽聽
[627]
silver. If this is making sense I want you to聽 learn and read why I feel like The Laser Fund聽聽
[634]
is the best place to put money serious cash聽 for liquidity safety predictable rates of聽聽
[640]
return tax-free and it would be the last domino聽 to fall if we had a total collapse of all the聽聽
[646]
financial institutions in America. Does that make聽 sense? If you want to learn more I would recommend聽
[652]
you聽read this book it's been flying off of our聽 warehouse shelves it's called The Laser Fund and聽聽
[657]
this will teach you how to diversify and create聽 the foundation for a tax-free retirement. But聽
[662]
how聽to pass the liquidity聽 safety rate of return test
[665]
with flying colors and have聽 it be tax-free to boot.聽聽
[668]
That's what these four pillars are. These are
[669]
the key elements of a prudent investment.聽 As far as I'm concerned being a financial聽聽
[675]
strategist nothing comes close聽 to passing the safety test better聽聽
[681]
than a max funded indexed insurance contract聽 where you're safe from market loss. You take聽聽
[687]
advantage when the market goes up you don't聽 lose when the market goes down because your聽聽
[690]
money is not at risk in the market.聽 You have safety of the institution.
[694]
You have safety of your principal. this is crucial聽 for you so that you will not outlive your money.
