Examples of how a Life Settlement can help you

Here are some real-life examples of how a Life Settlement can help you:
- A 74-year-old retiree has a term life insurance policy he has had for 20 years which is nearing the end of its term. Because the premiums will substantially increase if he renews the life insurance policy, he was going to let the policy lapse. Since it is a term policy, it has built no equity or cash surrender value, so he would receive nothing upon surrender. By selling the life insurance policy to a provider he not only eliminates his high monthly premium, but he also enjoys a windfall of cash.
- A 64-year-old woman is carrying multiple life insurance policies for estate tax planning reasons. Since she took out the policies, her estate planning needs have changed and her financial advisor has suggested that she drop one of the policies to free up her monthly cash flow and reduce her expenditures. By selling the policy which is now obsolete, she is able to adapt to her changing estate planning needs by rolling her life settlement into a long-term care policy or annuity.
- A 58-year-old woman sold her business 5 years ago. As part of the purchase agreement, she remained a consultant to the new owners for 5 years. During this ''earn-out period'', they purchased a $1,000,000 Key-Man policy on her life. As part of her consulting contract, the company assigns this policy to her at the end of the contract. Since she already has adequate life insurance coverage, she can sell the policy to a provider and invest the proceeds from her life settlement.
- A 69-year-old man and his 65-year-old wife own a joint survivor policy. They would like to make a substantial donation to their favorite charity, but do not want to affect their retirement income. By selling this life insurance policy to a provider, they have the pleasure of seeing the good work that their gift has made possible.
