85: Beyond the Percentage: Understanding Whole Life Insurance Dividends

Strategic Whole Life by Infinite Banking Authorized Practitioners

Welcome to STRATEGIC WHOLE LIFE (formerly The Fifth Edition) by Infinite Banking Authorized Practitioners.

In this episode, we delve into the concept of whole life insurance dividends. We clear the usual misconception people have about dividends, explaining that insurance dividends are different from stock dividends.

Here, we clarify that a whole life insurance dividend is essentially a yield coming from the surplus profit of a mutual based company. However, its calculation is more complex as it doesn't automatically imply specific yield to a policy. We emphasize the significance of the guaranteed values in whole life policies and how dividends add to this value. This discussion also touches upon the philosophy of why one should start with whole life policies and how dividends, which are part of the bigger financial picture, become a bonus.

The key takeaway is understanding that insurance dividends come from a well-run, highly-regulated company, and longer you've been with them, the higher your dividend.
