The Buy, Borrow, Die strategy is how the wealthy grow assets and access cash without ever selling — and without triggering a tax bill. As a partner of The Perfect Portfolio, created by Mark Quann, author of Be Smart, Pay Zero Taxes, I connect clients to the exact training the wealthy have used for years to build and protect wealth this way. It's not a loophole — it's how the tax code is actually written, and I'll help you find out if it fits your situation.
An Indexed Universal Life policy grows your cash value based on market index performance — with a built-in floor that protects you from losing money when the market drops. You can borrow against that cash value without liquidating your assets, and access it in retirement through tax-free distributions. It's life insurance and a strategic growth account working together, built for people who want the upside of the market without the risk.
"If you've spent years building your retirement savings, an Indexed Annuity ensures the market can never take it away — your principal is protected from market loss by a contractual floor, so downturns don't reach your balance. You still participate in a portion of market growth when times are good, keeping your money working without putting it at risk. Add a guaranteed income rider, and your Indexed annuity becomes a paycheck for life — one that keeps coming regardless of how long retirement turns out to be.
Not all term life insurance policies are created equal — and because Dave operates as an independent broker, he has the freedom to shop across dozens of carriers to find you the best rates without being tied to any single company's lineup. Every policy conversation includes a full review of rider options that most agents never bring up, such as the accelerated death benefit rider that lets you access your own policy if you're diagnosed with a serious illness, the waiver of premium rider that keeps your coverage in force if you become disabled, and the guaranteed insurability rider that locks in your ability to get more coverage at key life milestones — no new medical exam required. Term life is already the most affordable form of life insurance available — working with a broker just makes sure you get the most out of every dollar you spend on it.
