The same IUL can be funded at minimum, target, or maximum and that decision changes what you actually own.

When the structure is chosen for the agent’s compensation instead of your goals, you may end up with a policy you never agreed to buy.

A properly structured IUL is designed to give you more control over how and when you access your money.

But that control depends on the carrier’s loan and withdrawal provisions terms your advisor should be able to explain line by line.

Is your policy funded to build cash value or only funded near the minimum?

Request an in-force illustration and find out what you actually own before the policy reveals the problem for you.

A higher commission doesn’t mean a better policy for the client.

When compensation starts driving the design, the incentive is backwards. The structure should serve the client first not the pay check.

Every week people ask us the same version of this question: 'What do I actually bring to a CentraLife assessment call?'

Here is the honest checklist. You do not need all of it. You need enough of it that we are talking about your numbers, not hypotheticals.

1. Last year's federal tax return, first two pages.
2. A rough net worth sketch, one page is fine.
3. Any existing life insurance policies you own. Term, whole, IUL, group, all of it.
4. If you own a business: revenue, ownership split, whether there is a buy-sell.
5. If you are inside 24 months of an exit: expected sale price and structure.
6. If you have kids or grandkids: ages, and whether any trusts already exist.

The call is 45 minutes, video, no obligation to buy anything. If cash-value life insurance is not the right tool for what you are trying to do, we will tell you and point you at what is.

Book the call at the link if you want the details on paper instead of scattered across five tabs and three advisors.

A strong illustration doesn’t replace understanding the actual purpose and structure of the policy.

If the client can’t explain how it’s funded or why it was designed that way, the job isn’t finished.

About five months left in the calendar year to lock in structures against the 2026 federal estate exemption drop, from roughly $13.6M per person to roughly $7M under current law.

What that number means in practice: if you and your spouse are sitting on a combined net worth of $10M today, you are under the exemption. In 2026, you are $10M against a roughly $14M combined exemption instead of the current roughly $27M. Every dollar above the line is taxed at 40% at the federal level before state.

What we actually do about it before year-end:

1. Model the estate as it exists today, including the business, the real estate, the retirement accounts, and the life insurance death benefit. Most people forget the death benefit counts.

2. If a permanent policy is owned by you personally, look at moving it into an ILIT so the death benefit is not included in the taxable estate.

3. Use the annual gift exclusion, $18,000 per donor per recipient, and where it fits, layer in lifetime exemption use before the exemption resets.

None of this is a rush. All of it takes real time. Assessment link in bio.

Historical index data is being limited, removed, or presented with much clearer context on some illustrations.

If you’re using historical performance to explain an IUL, you need to understand exactly what those numbers do and don’t tell the client.
