  • Wealth Secrets: Financial Strategies for Cancer Survivors
    2025/02/10
    Frequently Asked Questions: Unlocking Wealth Secrets for Cancer Survivors and Thrivers1. What are the financial challenges faced by women of color battling breast cancer?Women of color often face unique financial challenges due to medical crises rapidly depleting savings, limited access to financial protections and resources, and difficulties in securing their financial futures while dealing with the medical and emotional challenges of a breast cancer diagnosis. Lack of financial knowledge can be devastating, especially when facing a health crisis. The intersection of race, gender, and health disparities often exacerbates these financial vulnerabilities.2. The presentation mentioned unlocking "money secrets." What are these secrets, and why haven't I heard of them before?The "money secrets" refer to financial strategies and tools, such as Indexed Universal Life (IUL) policies and leveraging IRS codes like IRC 7702, that wealthy individuals and large organizations have used for generations to build and protect their wealth. These strategies haven't been widely known because the elite who use them have not shared them with the general public. The presentation aims to democratize access to this information and empower communities to use these tools for financial security.3. What is the "Rule of 72," and how can it help me understand how my money grows?The Rule of 72 is a simple way to estimate how long it will take for an investment to double in value, given a fixed annual rate of return. You divide 72 by the annual interest rate to find the approximate number of years required to double your money. For example, if you earn a 1% interest rate, it would take 72 years to double your investment (72/1 = 72). The goal is to find investments with higher interest rates to double your money faster.4. What is an Indexed Universal Life (IUL) policy, and how can it be used as a "savings account on steroids"?An Indexed Universal Life (IUL) policy is a type of permanent life insurance that offers a death benefit, cash value growth, and potential living benefits. It's considered a "savings account on steroids" because it can offer a higher interest rate than traditional savings accounts, tax-free withdrawals through policy loans, and protection from lawsuits and bankruptcy depending on state law. The cash value is linked to a stock market index, but with downside protection, meaning you don't lose money when the market declines. The money grows, you have a way to pass on wealth, and you can use some of the funds while you are living through the living benefits that come with the policy.5. What are the key benefits of an IUL policy compared to other financial tools like 401(k)s or traditional life insurance?Key benefits of IUL policies compared to other financial tools include:Tax-free Growth and Withdrawals: Money grows tax-deferred, and withdrawals through policy loans are generally tax-free.Downside Protection: Cash value is linked to a market index with a guaranteed floor, protecting against losses during market downturns.Living Benefits: Access to funds for terminal, critical, or chronic illnesses while still alive.Protection from Creditors: In some states (like Florida), the policy's cash value is protected from lawsuits, bankruptcy, and foreclosure. In contrast, 401(k)s are tax-deferred but taxed upon withdrawal, offer no downside protection, and have penalties for early withdrawals. Term life insurance is temporary and doesn't build cash value.6. What if I don't medically qualify for an IUL policy? Are there other options available?If you don't medically qualify for an IUL policy, several alternative options are available:Annuities: These offer guaranteed income for life without requiring medical underwriting. You can fund them with a lump sum or through monthly payments.Guaranteed Issue Life Insurance: Some life insurance policies guarantee coverage regardless of health conditions, though they may be more expensive.Accidental Death Policy: Provides coverage in case of death due to accidents.Family Member Ownership: A healthier family member (e.g., a child) can own the IUL policy, while you (the cancer survivor) can be the payer and control the policy.7. How can I protect my finances during and after a cancer diagnosis?Protecting your finances during and after a cancer diagnosis involves several steps:Evaluate your financial situation: Identify areas where you need support and resources.Reach out to local organizations: Partner with financial advisors and support groups dedicated to helping women with breast cancer.Advocate for yourself: Join communities and initiatives focused on improving financial protections for women of color facing breast cancer.Review existing insurance policies: Have a financial professional review your current policies to ensure they meet your needs.Explore supplemental insurance options: Consider critical illness, hospital indemnity, and long-term care insurance policies.8...

    • What creative projects has AshleyCae Lee been involved in since her cancer diagnosis?

    • Since her diagnosis, AshleyCae has dived back into her activism and has also been incredibly prolific in the arts. She has partnered with organizations like Keeping Tabs and Keeping Genesee County Beautiful. In addition, she participated in a pageant and earned several medals. She has also been featured in three magazines as a model, released her first album called "Poetic Advisory" in collaboration with Zach Ro, and started acting, with upcoming film work thanks to her friends Star and T. She emphasizes using these creative outlets to show people more than just her diagnosis; she wants people to see her as a person.

    • What is the most challenging aspect of battling a rare form of leukemia, and how is AshleyCae coping?

    • The most challenging aspect is grappling with the knowledge that her specific type of cancer, CLL, will likely be the cause of her death. She copes by reminding herself that she's already healed, whether in this life or the next. While she is doing everything she can to improve her condition, she acknowledges her limitations and finds peace in accepting the inevitable. She focuses on making the most of the time she has left.

    • Are there any positive updates regarding AshleyCae's treatment or recovery?

    • Unfortunately, AshleyCae shares that she doesn't have any positive news to report. She has experienced setbacks, including hospitalizations and adverse reactions to chemotherapy, which have resulted in bruising and lesions. She is currently dealing with a new setback.

    • What kind of support has been most significant for AshleyCae during her cancer journey?

  • 😓 Living Benefits: Life Insurance for Critical Illness Expenses
    2025/02/12

    The video discusses the financial strain caused by surviving critical illnesses like heart attacks, highlighting gaps in traditional health insurance coverage. It uses the example of John, who incurred substantial out-of-pocket expenses despite having health insurance. The narrator emphasizes that medical advancements have increased survival rates, but healthcare plans often fail to cover the full costs of recovery. Uncovered expenses may include deductibles, treatments outside of one's network, and home care. To address this shortfall, the video promotes "living benefits" life insurance. This allows policyholders to access a tax-free cash advance against their death benefit to cover these unexpected costs. The advance reduces the final payout to beneficiaries, but provides financial relief during a critical illness.
