Lapsing at 84: Is Your Life Insurance Policy a Ticking Time Bomb?
from Long-Term Care Insurance Now
In this episode, long-term care specialist Scott A. Olson shares a real-world case study about a couple who bought a hybrid life insurance policy, only to realize it still left them vulnerable to long-term care costs. By subjecting their policy to his "Seven K.E.Y. Questions" test, Scott shows how the fine print capped their benefits against inflation and risked the policy lapsing entirely when they turned 84. He also explains how a properly structured, true asset-based policy could have provided over $1.1 million in guaranteed care protection for the same budget.Buy my book on Amazon: https://zurl.co/6YK23Listen to the podcast: https://zurl.co/dtGSKWatch our YouTube channel: https://zurl.co/0DvqQVisit our website to learn more: https://zurl.co/8BxY3Scott A.
