s********n 发帖数: 1962 | 2 你没问问她 08 年以前的收益?如果从 06 年算起到现在,只怕她的收益还是负的。
这些 sales 总是把最好的数据给你看,不告诉你风险。她最近的收益好不是她的 VUL
好,而是股票市场这两年涨的比较疯。如果从 08 年算起,受益在 30% 一样的 fund
遍地都是,她那根本不算高的。记住,不谈风险的收益是没有意义的。

s********n 发帖数: 1962 | 24 You are missing the point. How much return you get from VUL or 401k
is irrelevant. The return before management costs completely depends
on your own investment skills and has nothing to do with which
investment vehicle you choose.
The problem is the management cost -- VUL is usually ridiculously
high. Insurance agencies always try to avoid talking about how much
fee a VUL will charge and how much commission they will get from
a VUL policy. Instead, they talk about tax saving. VUL indeed has
tax benefits. However, the benefit can hardly cover its cost.
Buying a VUL is sort of like: In stead of paying Uncle Sam, you
give that proportion to the person who sold VUL to you. Even worse,
if you lose money in your account, Uncle Sam will stop charging
you, but in VUL, when you lose money in your account, you'll be
obligated to pay more!!

s****p 发帖数: 1087 | 27 还有一个关键的参数要问:他们投资的手续费和管理费。
VUL的通常都比较高。
而在管理费扣掉之前的rate of return,我认为就算他们不比别人低,也不会比别人高。
比如我们买mutual fund,我看两个参数:管理费,和近十年来的业绩。
好像卖VUL的agent,一般不给你介绍管理费。

s********n 发帖数: 1962 | 29 You go ask an insurance agent how much commission they can

I can assure you this: 3% is not even enough to cover the
commissions. And then add VUL account management fee on that.
And add the front/back load of their mutual funds on that.

And when you are getting older and older, add more and more

s******t 发帖数: 42 | 36 VUL一开始的premium要尽量maxout,不然的话cash value涨不起来就失去VUL的意义了
,cost of insurance是基于coverage-cash value的。
我的VUL是WRL的FEB-II,50万coverage,没有premiun front load,每年的fee有
1. cost of insurance,现在大约$35/month
2. monthly policy charge $10/month till 111-yr old
3. administration fee, $50/month for first 10 years,
4. insurance company management fee:0.75% annual rate of cash value for
first 10 years, 0.6% for 11-15 years, 0.3% for 16-20 years, 0 for 21+ years
5. fund management fee: 我选的几个fund除了一个emerging market是1.34%外,其他
都在0.8-0.9%之间。
各种fee还是很可观的,特别是前十年,如果真的每年只投四五千的话,前几年多半就
是负增长。

benefit to be the higher of the original death benefit or the

The percentage ranges from 30% or so for young insured persons,

Now correct me if I am wrong. The above statement means, say
you have a dead benefit of 1M, you can build max cash value
300K in your VUL, and you'll have to pay insurance premium
for the rest of 700K dead benefit. This may not be a problem
when you are young, but when you get to 60 years old, imagine
how much they will charge you for a 700K life insurance...
