  • Lifestyle Income Solution

    • Optional, premium-paying rider provides guaranteed withdrawal benefits (regardless of the cash surrender value under the policy)
    • Protects against the possibility of outliving retirement income and preserves standard of living throughout senior years
    • Provides the option to maximize income during early retirement years while protecting against an income shortfall later in life
    • Maximum issue age of 70 available on all underwriting classes
  • Couple planning their dream home

    Problem: Matt and Ginger are in their 50s. They are paying for both their current residence and some property on which they are planning to build a retirement home. If Matt dies, he wants to ensure that Ginger is able to manage expenses. The couple also want to make sure their income will last throughout their retirement.

     

    Matt and Ginger’s solution1

    • Matt purchases AG Secure Lifetime GUL® II, a flexible premium, adjustable life insurance policy, and adds the Lifestyle Income SolutionSM.

                 - Matt purchases a $500,000 policy with an annual premium of $8,8162 to his planned retirement at age 68, naming

                    Ginger as the beneficiary.

                  - When Matt reaches retirement, and ceases to pay premiums, his policy’s guaranteed death benefit continues to age

                    100.

     

    Optionality® in action

     

    • If Matt dies, the tax-free proceeds of the AG Secure Lifetime GUL® II policy are sufficient for Ginger to pay off the debt on both the current home and the retirement home, and provide for other expenses.
    • By age 78, the AG Secure Lifetime GUL® II policy will have a guaranteed cash value of $40,403, which can be accessed if necessary.
    • Matt may begin accessing his death benefit at age 85 via the Lifestyle Income Solution – which could allow him to withdraw $2,075 per month for the next 10 years. This would decrease his death benefit by half, but the remaining amount of $250,000 would still be guaranteed.3
    • Matt has the peace of mind that Ginger will not be burdened with heavy debt should something happen to him. He also knows he has the flexibility to access cash values in the future, if necessary, without risk of losing long-term protection.

    3 Withdrawals under the Lifestyle Income Solution must begin on a policy anniversary. Certain payment and other conditions must be met for such withdrawals to be available at that time, including, but not limited to, that Matt pay enough premiums so that, at age 85, no further payments will be necessary for the policy to continue to his age 100.

     

  • Parents protecting a special needs child

    Problem: Eric and Cindy Parker are in their 40s, and have a 7-year-old autistic daughter, Taylor. Because it’s a commitment that may last beyond their lifetime, they need a long-term solution that covers their need for security along with Taylor’s need for care after their death.

     

    Eric and Cindy’s solution1

    • Eric2 and Cindy3 each purchase AG Secure Lifetime GUL II, with a guarantee that lasts to age 121

     - Eric purchases a $1,000,000 policy with an annual premium of $7,312 to his age 121

     - Cindy purchases a $250,000 policy with an annual premium of $1,275 to her age 121

     - The Parkers establish a trust for the benefit of Taylor, in the event that both parents die prematurely

    Optionality® in action

    • The Parkers collectively purchased $1,250,000 of guaranteed death benefit protection.
    • If either Eric or Cindy die unexpectedly, the AG Secure Lifetime GUL II policy will allow the survivor to receive the funds necessary to care for Taylor.
    • Income from the trust will continue for Taylor’s life after both parents die.
    • Guaranteed cash value accumulation can be accessed if the need arises, resulting in an adjusted guaranteed death benefit and guaranteed premium. For example, at Eric’s age 85, they would be able to access over $170,000 of combined available cash value accumulation, if needed.
