New SecureCare sales idea

SecureCare Funding Source: RMDs Since SecureCare Universal Life’s maximum payment age is now age 80 in most states, this allows older clients to take advantage of longer payment duration options and — potentially — a new premium funding strategy. If a client doesn’t need to rely on required minimum distributions (RMDs) from their qualified accounts for retirement income, they could use their RMDs to fund SecureCare.
