Rates have gone up and it is not the deal it was. Another issue is many of the companies do not ROP the riders like they did. It was almost to good before.
I also attached an ROP Analysis for $500,000 of term 30, regular/standard rates, for a male age 40 Non-smoker. In that example, the rate of return is just over 4%, which isn't bad when you consider it's guaranteed for 30 years, and is a tax free payout.
It was too good before, unless you take into account lapse rates. But that's where regulators squeezed the life companies, to take the lapse rates out. This resulted in a price increase. Now, when lapses occur, the companies get a windfall, rather than distributing money back to customers.

So the client would get back more than what they paid out in premiums?
What's the internal rate of return?
Bob, why did you pick Pru? # 8 down the list? In California any way. Columbus At $2,485 or AG at $2,535 would have looked much better with the after tax.
It was a clever idea and I think would be very marketable today in the U.S. The problem is that the more you take advantage of the tax advantages, the more you draw attention to them, and the more likely it is that the government will swoop in and "close the loophole".
Someone frame this. I have said this for a while on here about PI. Stop rubbing the government's nose in it by constantly promoting PI's tax advantages. They have changed the rules on us twice already, let's not make them do it again.
Are you confusing them with ONL? What happens if a client quits at year 20 of a 30 year ROP?
Whole Life is a rip off, so is Term and UL. Not to mention Finale Expense and plan N and plan F Med Sups. Do not even get me started on Fixed and Indexed annuities.
Who the hell cares? Every time they do it they only apply the new rules to newly issued policies. So, we promote the hell of it now, and retire when they change the rules.
