Retirement Income - Will There Be ENOUGH?

*“Gen X and Y Investors Worry Retirement Savings Won’t Be Enough,” Michael S. Fischer, AdvisorOne, March 9, 2012.**”Many Small-Business owners aren’t prepared for Retirement,” Laura Petrecca, USA Today, March 1, 2012.

2/3 of investors between age 21 and 50 doubt they

will have ENOUGH MONEY FOR RETIREMENT*

64% of Gen X and Gen Y investors expect that retirement

income will come FROM NON-RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS*

1/3 of small-business owners do not have a PERSONAL

OR BUSINESS-SPONSORED RETIREMENT **

Tax DiversificationWhy failure to diversify tax liabilities at retirement could potentially hurt your client's retirement income

*For life insurance, Tax-free income assumes, among other things: (1) withdrawals do not exceed tax basis (generally, premiums paid less prior withdrawals); (2) policy remains in force until death; (3) withdrawals taken during the first 15 policy years do not occur at the time of, or during the two years prior to, any reduction in benefits; and (4) the policy does not become a modified endowment contract. See IRC Sections 72, 7702(f)(7)(B), 7702A. Any policy withdrawals, loans and loan interest will reduce policy values and may reduce benefits. 7 of 27

LIFE INSURANCE RETIREMENT PLAN(LIRP)

*Tax-free income assumes, among other things: (1) withdrawals do not exceed tax basis (generally, premiums paid less prior withdrawals); (2) policy remains in force until death; (3) withdrawals taken during the first 15 policy years do not occur at the time of, or during the two years prior to, any reduction in benefits; and (4) the policy does not become a modified endowment contract. See IRC Sections 72, 7702(f)(7)(B), 7702A. Any policy withdrawals, loans and loan interest will reduce policy values and may reduce benefits. **For federal income tax purposes, life insurance death benefits generally pay income tax-free to beneficiaries pursuant to IRC Section. 101(a)(1). In certain situations, however, life insurance death benefits may be partially or wholly taxable. Situations include, but are not limited to: the transfer of a life insurance policy for valuable consideration unless the transfer qualifies for an exception under IRC Section. 101(a)(2)(i.e. the transfer-for-value rule); arrangements that lack an insurable interest based on state law; and an employer-owned policy unless the policy qualifies for an exception under IRC Section. 101(j).***State law may provide life insurance and annuities with certain asset protection benefits. As a general rule, a debtor may not transfer property with the intent to avoid debt due to his creditors. The laws governing asset protection, however, are complex and the consequences of poor planning may be both civil and criminal penalties. Anyone contemplating an asset protection plan should not undertake such without the advice of legal counsel.
