No Limitations

In Roth IRA’s, which are also tax-free, there are government restrictions that prevent people from adding more than $6,500.00 per year ($7,500 if over 50), which keeps you from building a large nest egg for retirement. Also, there are limits in how much you can earn in order to have access to tax-free growth. Lastly, there are limits to when you access your money (59 ½ years old), or if you do access it, there are penalties and fees involved. The Roth IUL has none of those limitations.

The Roth IUL duplicates the tax-free aspect of the Roth IRA, but goes much further for people who want to build a large nest egg without all of the limitations. You can open a Roth IUL without any top end income restrictions, no age restrictions on removing money and best of all, no limits to the amount contributions when we set up your account. You can start at an affordable amount when you are younger and increase your contributions as you age and get closer to retirement. Plus, you can add lump sum amounts to maximize your earning potential.
