💾 be sure to save for later 💾
⭐️ Here are the details ⭐️
✅ Larry & Cassie are 63
✅ $15,000/month of retirement income is their desired retirement lifestyle
✅ They have a $1M indexed universal life policy with $400k in cash value
✅ They have $600k in Bonds that will mature at age 70
✅ They have a total of $1.3M in 401k’s & IRA’s
✅ They will each get $4,000/month from Social Security at age 70
✅ Larry’s Deferred Comp will pay $71,000/year for first 7 years of retirement
✅ Cassie has a small pension will pay $1,200/month immediately
⭐️ Step 1: Deferred Comp Replacement Strategy ⭐️
✅ Goal is to replace the $71k/year of Deferred Comp income in 7 years
✅ $550,000 into a deferred income annuity will guarantee $71k/year for life at 70
⭐️ Step 2: Short-term Flexible Market Withdrawals (years 1–7) ⭐️
✅ Larry & Cassie will pull $8,000/month from the market
✅ After 7 years this should still be worth about $275k (earning 6% per year)
⭐️ Step 3: Turn on Social Security + Bonds Mature at age 70 ⭐️
✅ Social Security will become $8,000/month of guaranteed for life
✅ Their $600k Bond matures
✅ Meaning they have $875k in addition to all other fixed income (including retirement accounts)
⭐️ Step 4 — Supplemental Income + Tax-free Gifting ⭐️
✅ They will take a 4% portfolio withdrawal every year for supplemental income
✅ Any income not need for their own retirement will be gifted tax-free
✅ OR, will be funneled into their IUL for a tax-free wealth transfer when they pass away
🌟Final Results: $15,000/month in years 1–7 + approximately $18,000/month for life
🌟 BONUS TIP: Because they have life insurance cash value they can take MUCH HIGHER than 4% income withdrawals from any money they leave in the market
➕ That policy can be used to absorb drops in the market while still preserving a tax-free legacy for their loved ones
