2. A person reaches a certain age at which he or
she starts to think about the legacy they leave
behind. Whether they want to leave that legacy
to their heirs, or to a Church, University, School
or other favorite entity is their choice. How they
do it can mean a huge difference from a tax
liability standpoint to the beneficiary. Taxes can
actually make the beneficiary sell off or
refinance the inheritance in 9 months, not
exactly what the individual who dedicated a
lifetime building the estate had in mind.

3. No Will, No Planning Scenario
When there is no Will, the entire estate is subject to the
Probate Courts, attorneys and judges determine the
dissolution of the estate, and the division to each of the
heirs. Large Estates can be subject to Federal Estate Taxes
of 35% of the total Estate, as well as State and even local
Estate Taxes. The total Taxes due could amount to half of
the estate, requiring liquidation of the property, or large re-
financing problems.

4. Last Will & Testament Scenario
The Individual determines how the property and
assets are allocated to his heirs or others, such
as a University or Charity, but there is still the
liability of 35% Federal Estate Taxes, (not to
mention State or even local Estate Taxes) which
are due 9 months after the estate passes to the
beneficiary, this can destroy an estate requiring
refinancing or sale of things a person has worked
his whole life for, and wanted to pass on to his
heirs. Improper planning could cause the loss of
half of the estate to taxes.

5. The Trust Scenario
A Trust, considered to be the ultimate in
estate planning, keeps the Estate intact, and
minimizes the initial Estate taxes.. But there
is a catch, payouts from the trust to the
beneficiary are taxed as income in the year
they are received, just as ordinary income,
and a trust has unique qualities that can make
it a challenge over the years to come.

6. What is the Solution?
While you cannot avoid estate taxes , you can
make paying them considerably less painful,
and leave a larger estate or charitable
donation behind. Utilizing the untapped
insurance capacity of high net worth
individuals can allow them to leave behind
complete estates, the entire operation keep it
intact for tax purposes and add a tax free
addition to the estate at the same time!

7. Benefits:
Let’s say an individual with a considerable amount of
assets in stocks, bonds, or real estate has a few heirs to
who he wants to leave those things he has worked his
entire life for. Capital Gains taxes on the estate could be a
major factor on how much the individual actually leaves. If
the Estate files a tax return, it could be subject to capital
gains taxes on the assets, dropping the estate value
greatly. If the estate does not pay the taxes, the basis on
the portfolio for the heirs will be whatever your cost was in
the stock. When they sell, they will have huge gains that
will be taxable. The solution, add more to the estate in tax
free liquid cash to pay the taxes.

8. Sounds Expensive
Not as Expensive as doing nothing. While currently the
Federal Estate Tax rate is at 35%, it is bound to only
increase in the years to come.
A self financing option is available to enroll in the program
and reap the benefits without an initial cash outlay for the
client. None of the client’s assets are tied up as collateral.
Self Financing available up to 100%.
Individuals with liquid assets have other options available
to them, payment from existing cash assets.

9. An Example
A recent example involves a 70 year old
individual who had a net worth of about $10
million. After looking over the program, he
chose to protect his estate for about $5
million, and paid for it with his liquid assets. He
could have done the program using 100 %
financing, but chose not to. Now his estate is
worth $15 million, with $5 million of highly liquid
capital available tax free to pay off those pesky
tax collectors, and keep the rest of his estate
intact.

10. After Two Years,
Our example has three options:
 He can keep the protection package in place
for the rest of his life.
 He can sell a portion of the protection, and
keep the balance.
 Or he can sell the protection, and recover his
costs and more, sometimes much more…..

11. Option One, Keep the Protection
 No additional costs out of pocket.
 Protection continues for Life.
 His Estate has gained $5 million of tax free
income to pay the taxes when needed.
 If he had financed the premium, he would not
have had to pledge any current assets as
collateral.

12. Selling the Protection Scenario
 After 2 years, he has the option to sell all or part of the
protection package to an outside investor.
 In this example, the market value should be about $1.3m.
This client has the possibility to make a net profit of around
$1 million over the initial investment.
 His Estate is now about $11 million, after that single
transaction.
 In this case, he still has considerable insurance capacity to do
the program again.
 He has recouped his initial investment several times over,
and increased his estate value. That is asset protection!
 No out of pocket costs! A great way to obtain cash from fixed
assets!

13. I am not a Millionaire!
Think about that.
What is the value of real estate owned?
What is your Annual Portfolio Income?
Now add up the vehicles in your fleet.
Now factor in your debt.
Stocks, Bonds, Retirement Accounts
Still think you are no millionaire?

14. Wow!
Impressive program, isn’t it? The current
minimum age is 65 years, with decent
health, and the current minimum net worth is
$2 m.

Everyone has an Insurance Capacity. In working
years, it can be defined as your earnings
multiplied by your anticipated working years. In
later years, it can be your net worth combined
with your long term obligations, such as an
unpaid mortgage. It can be the market value of a
business or real estate owned, either as a sole
proprietor, partner, or corporation share.
Simplified, that is Insurance Capacity.
