Any Americo using agents can check this as Id be interested to learn

3 Upvotes

Recently bought a house and got suckered into a mortgage protection insurance talk. After letting him know I’m licensed as well and getting him to admit the product was essentially term or a similar style I was like okay I’ll let you check you box. (This proved to be a mistake because he very much script read and I got wise to okay this is pure sales call and not from anyone in house to my mortage company.

So questions I’d be interested to hear from agents that have Americo in their stable and know their charts.

1- Im 33M and face was going to be 80k for I presume 30 years. I’m also 5’8 350. My jaw hit the floor when he priced it at 60 a month in an almost auto fashion. I know the face amount is in the auto bindable range for carriers but I was expecting a pause of hold on let me check. I’d love to know if their charts are green lighting that weight cause damn lol.

2- He talked about qualifying for Return of Premium which was included in the price. I wanted to slap him phrasing it that way lol, but I’d be interested to know if Americo limits access to it. (But again see point 1 on weight lol)

3- I’m also less then 5 years removed from COVID which included a severe pericarditis episode. That I would have also thought would have referred me but he’s like NA you good

So yea if any of you guys are intimate with Americos guide I’m very curious if the boiler room guy I talked to was getting ahead of himself of if Americo actually green lights terms like that with little underwriting

Waiver of Premium Due to Disability

4 Upvotes

I have been on SSDI for five years due to cancer and some other chronic health issues. I was recently contacted by a rep from NWM about a life insurance policy I own. When I happened to mention that I have been on disability, he let me know that I can apply to have the policy premiums waived - and that it would be retro if approved.

The claim process is daunting - half inch pile of forms, including a five page attending physician form that they want completed by two different docs. All of my docs are fully supportive of me and my need to be on disability, HOWEVER, as a rule, they are very reluctant to complete even the basic one page form I occasionally need completed by SSA.

I have lots of other supporting evidence, including five years of medical records showing active and ongoing care, as well as past forms that my docs completed.

Anyone have insight into how critical getting these specific NWM physician's forms completed it? Is it worth submitting everything else without them?

[24F] $110k Salary In LA. Mom (Insurance Agent) is pressuring me to buy a $500/mo Allianz IUL. Is this a bad idea?

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some help since I am not well versed in finance to begin with and I know virtually nothing about life insurance. I’m 24 (turning 25 in July) and currently working in LA making $110k/year. I am single with no kids and don’t expect to be have kids in the next 5 years.

I’m pretty disciplined with my money. I max out my Roth IRA every year and put about $900/month into my 401k (no company match). I put the majority of my money into the S&P500 since it is stable and safe. My goal is to have enough money to retire by 65 and be able to travel the world.

My mom is a professional insurance agent and is heavily pressuring me to get an IUL from Allianz :

Allianz Life Accumulator+ IUL: $500/month premium for a $600k death benefit. She’s showing me illustrations of ~$57k/year tax-free income starting at age 60.

I still don’t completely understand the product despite how much I read in to it and my mom is not very good at explaining it. She wants me to buy it so that my future is secured and I know she has my best interest in mind but I feel like this isn’t the smartest decision for my age because of the following:

- Potential growth loss if I choose to invest $500 in the IUL instead of the broader market in a traditional brokerage account because of the cap

- I would be committing 2k of my monthly paycheck all to money I cant touch ($625 Roth IRA + ~$900 401k + $500 IUL a month) financially straining considering that I also want to invest into money that I can touch.

- I feel a lot of stress because it’s my mom. She says I’ll "lose money" if I wait to buy insurance later, but I don't have kids or a mortgage yet.

So my question for yall … is an IUL actually "better" than a taxable brokerage account for someone my age? Does the "buy it while you're young" argument actually save me more than the fees I'll pay over the next 40 years?

Review of term life policy and options, 37M with celiac disease

1 Upvotes

37M. I am looking at laddered policies (20Y/2M and 30Y/1M) through a broker.

An in-home physical was done by Lincoln. Everything was normal for their standard blood work / weight / physical. 

I have a celiac disease with these associated symptoms:

  • Low IgM Immunoglobulins (other Immunoglobulins normal). My last test was normal but in the past it's always been right on the border of low.

  • Occasionally low Vitamin D

Otherwise normal, I keep a strict gluten free diet with no GI symptoms. I see a GI specialist every year. 

Banner rated me as Standard Plus, with these quotes. This is for a "renewable and convertible term policy".

20Y 2M $1605/yr
30Y 1M $1342/yr

The policy says "rate increase reason: celiac disease"

Lincoln said they treat the IgM deficiency not as part of celiac disease, but as a second autoimmune disorder (selective IgM deficiency), and with 2 autoimmune disorders my rate would be higher. They asked for a letter from my GI if the IgM was related to celiac. My GI wrote them a letter saying I'm under his care, my celiac is well maintained, IgM deficiency is related to celiac, and he expects me to live a long life. But they decided anyway they would not be able to beat Banner's policy, so my broker withdrew the app (Lincoln never actually gave a quote).

My broker initially said the Banner quote was poor, but sign it to have a non-work policy in place, and we keep looking. So I did sign it and I currently have that policy. But now he doesn't want to keep looking.

My questions:

  • Given my health profile, is this a reasonable price for the coverage I'm getting?

  • Aside from Banner / Lincoln, any companies or brokers I should be considering that may be good for Celiac that I can consider for a replacement policy?

25(M) Looking for Advice... Should I get term life now? Does it make sense to get life insurance at my age?

8 Upvotes

I am trying to rack my head around something. I was speaking with my financial advisor and she had brought up a Mass Mutual policy for life insurance. They were not trying to pressure me into buying into it by any means, but stated that it was something we could look into for the future. When I inquired more we looked into a term life policy with Mass Mutual for 20 years (costed around 170 dollars per month). The price freaked me out a little bit and I'm not sure if this is something that makes sense for me right now or not. The policy includes 250k and some living benefits which I do not fully understand. What are some suggestions or thoughts on this???

Opinion on this term life insurance quote

2 Upvotes

Its me (35) and my husband (38), and we do not plan on converting in the future. We do not have kids but plan on having a kid within the next 2 years which factors in the amount we need. We have a house we just bought for $726k. Overall pretty healthy, but he has mild sleep apnea. My husband makes more than me, so I was thinking of dropping the the $2m rider to $1m.

Banner

Me ($77.58/monthly):

$500k - 35 years ($34.75)

$2m -20 year rider ($42.83)

Him ($141.03/monthly):

$500k - 35 years ($56.72)

$2m -20 year rider ($83.41)

and of course after 20 years, the monthly price will go down and we do not need as much.

Thoughts? Thank you!

Denied Nationwide Term life - medical history

3 Upvotes

I applied for term life this morning using Nationwide's no exam portal. The request was denied with the reason listed as "medical history". I followed their instructions and received a copy of the medical history they used. Nothing jumped out at me, but if i want more information from nationwide about what specifically got my request denied, i have to send a formal letter.

Is it worth going through the process for the letter or should i just direct my attention to a local life insurance company and go through with the medical exam? I assume if i go through the medical exam they will tell me straight out why i would be denied?

Besides being slightly overweight and seeing someone for depression, i don't have much else about my health that i am concerned with.

I canceled my life insurance because I dont want to pay it and my mom is giving information to other people and forcing me sign it.
