1. Borrowing From Your Whole Life Policy
Borrowing from your whole life policy, is like a whole life insurance policy is one that accumulates cash value over time as you make your regular some premium payments and you earn dividends and interest. Yes of course It's possible to borrow against this cash value, in other side when you borrow from your own whole life insurance policy, there is no loan qualification process. While such a strategy increases your borrowing potential, it reduces the face value of the policy if not paid back. So if you may not have to answer a lot of questions to borrow this money, but there are some great value simply questions you should ask to your insurance company :
- What is the interest rate on this scheme loan?
- Will my withdrawal be taxable?
- Could my loan eventually cause my policy to lapse?
- How will this loan affect my policy's death benefit?
- Will it reduce my annual dividend?
Additionally, you should ask yourself these questions:
- Will I really repay the loan?
- What is the opportunity cost of borrowing this money?
- What are the consequences of a reduced death benefit for my beneficiaries?
