Can my current financial advisor set up a Wealth Maximization Account?

Most financial advisors aren’t familiar with the unique structure of a Wealth Maximization Account. While they may be able to provide whole life insurance policies, if yours isn’t structured correctly, you won’t see the rapid growth and tax advantages of a Wealth Maximization Account.

We recommend you utilize our Wealth Strategists, who work with top-rated mutual insurance companies to customize your policy. Schedule a free consultation with a Wealth Strategist here.

If you prefer to use your own financial advisor, ask him/her these questions:

  • What are the best strategies to grow my wealth?
  • What is the role of dividend-paying whole life insurance in my financial strategy?
  • Do you personally use whole life as part of your financial strategy?
  • Do you include a Paid-Up Additions rider to policies?
  • How do you structure the Paid Up Additions rider when you set up a policy?
  • How do you use the MEC limit or 7-pay limit to structure a policy?
  • What mutual insurance companies do you work with?
  • Tell me how you’ve used your insurance to build your family’s wealth.
  • Can you give me examples of clients with these types of policies?
