Watch Before You Buy Life Insurance

Buying life insurance the wrong way can cost you six figures and leave your family exposed. Russell Boring breaks down term vs whole, indexed universal life, infinite banking, and “tax free retirement” inside a policy. We cover caps, floors, surrender charges, loans, and the incentives that could push bad products.


Watch if you’ve been pitched: whole life, IUL, VUL, guaranteed UL, or infinite banking.


Key takeaways:• Permanent can fit when income is high, plans are maxed, and you’ll actively manage the policy.• Linear illustrations hide volatility and loan risks.• Estate planning can be the best use of life insurance.
