In this Episode of the Secure Your Retirement Podcast, Radon and Murs discuss how modern life insurance can be more than a death benefit—it can be an all-in-one tool for retirement planning strategies, tax advantages of life insurance, and long-term care insurance. With guest expert Jim Bowman, they explain how well-structured cash value policies—especially Indexed Universal Life—can provide tax free retirement income, flexible access to cash, and an efficient way to leave a legacy to family or charity.Listen in to learn about the practical differences between term and cash value policies, how to design funding to avoid MEC rules, why many retirees use unneeded RMDs to create tax-efficient benefits, and how hybrid life insurance can accelerate a portion of the death benefit for qualifying long-term care needs.

El automóvil se ha convertido en muchos países en una máquina de recaudar, una "vaca lechera" a la que ordeñan sin piedad y que en España entrega a las arcas del Estado alrededor de 40.000 millones de euros al año. Sí, habéis oído bien, el triple de lo que gasta el gobierno español en defensa. En mi opinión un escándalo que vamos a rastrear y analizar cifra por cifra. En este video vamos a investigar y a buscar hasta el último rincón y hasta el último céntimo, todo el dinero que el Estado obtiene del automóvil y los automovilistas. Y espero demostrar que la lógica y la justicia brillan por su ausencia. 1. El Bautizo Fiscal. Comprar un coche, el primer gran “sablazo”. El IVA o Impuesto sobre el Valor Añadido, hoy en día, es un rotundo 21%. Pero esta cifra no ha dejado de crecer. Para que nos hagamos una idea, en 1995 este impuesto era del 16%. En julio de 2010 subió al 18% y, en plena crisis, en septiembre de 2012, nos dieron la estocada final con el 21%. ¿Te parece mucho? Pues la fiesta no ha hecho más que empezar. Ahora llega el Impuesto de Matriculación, un tributo que en la mayoría de países europeos serios, simplemente, no existe. Se supone que es un impuesto "ecológico" porque grava las emisiones de CO₂, pero es una de las mayores trampas fiscales de la historia reciente. 2. El “Ordeño” diario. La sangría de usar el coche. Una vez que el coche es tuyo, el Estado no se olvida de ti… por el contrario, se convierte en tu sombra. Empecemos por el Impuesto de Circulación o IVTM acrónimo de Impuesto sobre Vehículos de Tracción Mecánica. Es un impuesto municipal, lo que significa que cada ayuntamiento decide cuánto te “clava “en un ejercicio de arbitrariedad inaudito. Las diferencias son demenciales. Pero la verdadera joya de la corona, la mina de oro del Estado, es el combustible. Cada vez que paramos en una gasolinera, más de la mitad de lo que pagamos no es por la gasolina o el diésel, sino por los impuestos que lleva asociados. 3. La multa como modelo de negocio. La DGT del execrable Pere Navarro. Y, por si fuera poco, tenemos a la Dirección General de Tráfico. La DGT se ha convertido en una agencia de recaudación casi perfecta. En 2023, batió su récord histórico de multas, ingresando la escalofriante cifra de 507 millones de euros. 4. ¡Agárrate! El “Gran Total”. La Cifra del Escándalo. Y llega el momento de sumar. Si metemos en una coctelera el IVA, el Impuesto de Matriculación, el de Hidrocarburos, el de Circulación, tasas, multas y demás, la cifra es mareante. Según los últimos datos consolidados de ANFAC, la patronal de fabricantes, correspondientes a 2023, el sector de la automoción en España aporta cada año a las arcas del Estado cerca de 40.000 millones de euros. 5. La gran pregunta. ¿Qué recibimos a cambio? Insisto, ¿qué recibimos a cambio de este esfuerzo fiscal titánico? ¿Una red de carreteras impecable? ¡Nada más lejos de la realidad! El último informe de la Asociación Española de la Carretera es para echarse a llorar: el déficit en mantenimiento de nuestras carreteras supera ya los 11.000 millones de euros. 6. La Comparativa Europea: El mito de que en España no se paga tanto. Volvemos a Europa, donde la propaganda oficial insiste en que la presión fiscal sobre el automóvil en España está en la media. ¡Falso! La clave no es la cifra absoluta, sino el esfuerzo fiscal que supone para un ciudadano con un salario medio español. Compra del vehículo: La combinación de un IVA del 21% (superior al 19% de Alemania) y un Impuesto de Matriculación que no existe en potencias como Alemania o que es muy inferior en otros países, hace que el desembolso inicial en España sea de los más dolorosos de la UE en relación con el poder adquisitivo. Recaudación por combustible: Aunque en términos absolutos Alemania recauda más por tener más coches, España está entre los países con los impuestos sobre la gasolina y el diésel más altos de Europa. Esto castiga no solo al particular, sino a toda la cadena económica, desde el transportista hasta el agricultor. El modelo español es perversamente claro: una fiscalidad altísima en la compra y en el uso diario que afecta a toda la población por igual, vivas en una gran ciudad o en un pueblo donde el coche es tu única forma de ir al médico. Conclusión. Las cifras no mienten. Unos 40.000 millones de euros al año recaudados, un aumento de 18.000 millones en dos décadas, y un déficit en mantenimiento de carreteras que es una vergüenza nacional. El automóvil es el pilar financiero oculto del Estado español. Somos un cajero automático con ruedas para un sistema que recauda sin cesar y que no reinvierte de forma justa.

What happens if you can't afford your whole life insurance premium anymore? It's the most common concern when people design large policies for Infinite Banking: "I don't want to pay this huge premium until I'm 95 years old." The truth is, once you understand what premium is doing for you—building momentum, creating guaranteed growth, and establishing your family banking system—you won't want to stop. But life happens. Income disruptions, career changes, or simply changing priorities might make you reconsider. That's why understanding your contractual rights matters. There are five distinct options when you can't or won't continue paying premiums, and most people only know about the worst one: surrendering for cash. This episode breaks down all five options, from the contractual non-forfeiture provisions required by state law to the optimal strategy that lets your policy sustain itself. We explain extended term insurance, reduced paid-up insurance, automatic premium loans, and the dividend payment strategy—plus why working with an authorized IBC practitioner ensures you actually have access to these options. The goal isn't to plan your exit from day one, but to understand the full contract you're entering and know you have control no matter what happens.Chapters:00:00 - Opening segment07:00 - Introduction to non-forfeiture options and PUA  10:00 - Four contractual non-forfeiture options overview  11:20 - Cash value refresher13:00 - Net present value14:40 - Dave Ramsey's misrepresentation   17:50 - Company exposure and why cash value grows over time  18:55 - Option 1: Cash surrender value (closing the policy)  20:30 - Option 2: Extended term insurance explained  25:45 - Option 3: Automatic premium loan (APL)  27:00 - When APL makes sense: income disruption scenarios  32:00 - Base premium vs. total premium: What you actually need to sustain  35:00 - Option 4: Reduced paid-up insurance (RPU)  36:25 - Why you can't RPU before year seven (MEC rules)  42:15 - How using dividends changes projections  44:50 - Option 5: Using dividends to pay premiums (the optimal strategy)  48:05 - Keeping premium door open  52:00 - Protection and savings before speculation  54:10 - Keeping the wall between savings and investments  56:30 - Final thoughtsKey Takeaways:- Cash surrender value is not separate from death benefit—it's your equity in the future payment at present value- There are 5 total options when you can't pay premium: 4 contractual non-forfeiture options plus the dividend strategy- Cash surrender (Option 1): Walk away with equity, lose all coverage—least recommended option- Extended term insurance (Option 2): Same death benefit dollar amount, reduced timeframe based on cash value- Reduced paid-up insurance (Option 3): Same timeframe (whole life), reduced death benefit, no future premiums required- Automatic premium loan (Option 4): Company loans against cash value to pay base premium automatically- Dividend payment (Option 5): Use policy dividends to pay base premium—the optimal approach for mature policies- Not all whole life companies support optimal IBC design—must have PUA riders available- Work only with Nelson Nash Institute authorized practitioners to ensure proper policy structure- Goal is never to stop paying premium once you understand what it's doing for your family banking system- Your whole life policy should be the asset you understand most completely before signingGot Questions?Reach out to us at info@remnantfinance.com or book a call at https://remnantfinance.com/calendar !Visit https://remnantfinance.com for more informationLow Stress Trading: https://remnantfinance.com/options  FOLLOW REMNANT FINANCEYoutube: @RemnantFinance (https://www.youtube.com/@RemnantFinance )Facebook: @remnantfinance (https://www.facebook.com/profile.id=61560694316588 )Twitter: @remnantfinance (https://x.com/remnantfinance )TikTok: @RemnantFinanceDon't forget to hit LIKE and SUBSCRIBE

Two 31-year-old fathers of two. One died unexpectedly in a hospital, leaving his family scrambling financially with only a $400,000 life insurance policy. The other was assassinated for his political beliefs, sparking a national conversation about violence and ideology. Both tragedies expose the same uncomfortable truth: none of us know when our last day will come.Hans opens with a sobering reality check for fathers - if you don't wake up tomorrow, how does your family survive financially? Beyond the emotional devastation, what practical steps have you taken to ensure your wife can pay the mortgage, access accounts, and maintain the lifestyle you've built together? The episode serves as both a wake-up call about financial preparedness and an introduction to alternative investment strategies through client Will Leight's raw land business.The conversation takes a hard turn into cultural commentary following recent events, examining the escalation of political violence and the breakdown of civil discourse. From Harvard's ideological rigidity to the celebration of assassination, Hans and Will discuss why the mask has come off regarding the left's true intentions and what it means for American families trying to build wealth and protect their future.Chapters:00:00 - Opening discussion on insurance and tragedy01:30 - Introduction to Will Light and client interview format04:10 - Tragic case study: 31-year-old father's unexpected death07:50 - The underinsured asset: your human life value10:30 - Will's insurance background: SGLI and universal life experience13:00 - Financial advisor vs. IBC agent: the education gap16:10 - Policy design disasters and all-base mistakes19:40 - IUL retirement plans and MEC dangers24:50 - Charlie Kirk assassination and national implications27:00 - Harvard Kennedy School and ideological extremism29:55 - The myth of "national conversation" exposed32:25 - Violence as policy: the liberal endgame revealed35:20 - Masks dropping after the assassination39:45 - Historical parallels to Soviet criminal codes41:10 - Frontier Coffee statement on turning points47:00 - Zero tolerance for liberal ideology in business49:20 - Nepal government overthrow parallels51:20 - Individual and community preparedness imperatives53:40 - Shifting to raw land investment strategy55:50 - Will's introduction to Land Geek methodology58:25 - Raw land acquisition and financing mechanics01:00:35 - Building relationships with land buyers01:02:50 - Scaling strategy and county selection01:04:30 - Current portfolio: 11 properties and growing01:06:35 - Rental property tax advantages comparison01:09:10 - Vision and Value Land Company introduction01:11:10 - Final thoughts on preparedness and truth-tellingGot Questions?

What keeps Atlanta's Council 44 reps awake at night? Two things: educating a largely new pilot group before Section 6 and stopping off-book deal-making with Scheduling that erodes unity and pay protections. In this candid roundtable, Captain Tony Rohloff, Captain Shawn Kellett, and First Officer Maggie Eickhoff explain why the Contract History and Contract Comparison aren't “homework” - they're essential to a strong opener - and how your narrative responses in the contract survey directly shape MEC direction and Negotiating Committee priorities. We break down the coverage ladder, why making deals for yourself cuts the line for everyone else, and how mentoring in the cockpit can curb bad habits before they spread. You'll also hear a clear playbook for engagement: where to find surveys and polling, how resolutions flow into the “Green Book” for negotiations, and why participation matters even when things feel good on the line. We close with base-level ways to plug in and a reminder that unity isn't a slogan; it's a series of small, contract-compliant choices we make every day.

Hace dos años, el 6 de octubre del 2023, se estrenaba en España la película "Dispararon al pianista" de Fernando Trueba y Javier Mariscal.Tenorio Junior era el pianista de Vinicius de Moraes.Tenorio Junior fue secuestrado el 18 de marzo de 1976 en Buenos Aires, poco antes del golpe de Estado en Argentina. Lo asesinaron dos días después, pero sus restos fueron enterrados como NN, ningún nombre. El pianista tenía 35 años cuando fue llevado a la fuerza a la Escuela de Mecánica de la Armada por error. Fue a tocar Gran Rex con Vinicius y Toquiño. Simplemente a la patota de turno no le gustó su pinta.Casi 50 años después, hace 48 horas, ha sido acreditado que las huellas dactilares de un cuerpo aparecido en un baldío eran del pianista brasileño.

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-eleventh episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by MAJ Marc Howle, the Brigade Senior Engineer / Protection Observer-Coach-Trainer, and MAJ David Pfaltzgraff, BDE S-3 Operations OCT, from Brigade Command & Control (BDE HQ) on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guests are MAJ Steven Yates, the BDE S-6 Signal OCT from Brigade Command & Control (BDE HQ) and SFC Daniel Pippin, the BN S-6 Signal NCOIC from the 1-509th IN (ABN) Opposing Force.   This episode of The Crucible centers on the challenges of command and control (C2) integration and the employment of enablers within brigade combat teams (BCTs) at JRTC. The discussion highlights recurring issues with overcomplicated signal plans, inadequate COMSEC readiness, and a persistent lack of basic communications skills across maneuver formations. Despite widespread fielding of advanced systems like ITN, many units arrive without validated PACE plans or shared understanding of how to communicate across formations and enabler teams. A key friction point is the failure to execute realistic COMEX and VALEX rehearsals, which often leads to failure in establishing a functioning network prior to movement into the box. When soldiers can't log into CPCE or MAVEN or don't know how to employ SATCOM or FM, the entire C2 enterprise falters before first contact.   The episode also stresses the importance of simplifying communications, cross-training non-signal personnel, and involving maneuver leaders in signal planning. A lack of distributed competence creates overreliance on limited 25-series personnel. The team praises aviation's model of integrating comms training into pilot academics and encourages similar investments at the BCT level—where every Soldier using a radio must understand its function and limitations. Integration of enablers—particularly aviation, foreign partners, and multi-echelon elements like MEC teams—demands proactive coordination well before RSOI. The key takeaway: units that treat RSOI as part of the operations process, not just an administrative requirement, set the conditions for success. C2 must be validated with full mission threads—sensor-to-shooter, PED, and digital fires—before rolling into the box. Anything less risks operational paralysis in the first 48 hours.   Part of S13 “Hip Pocket Training” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

A mediados de julio, el gobierno lanzó la Estrategia Interinstitucional de Revinculación Educativa para reincorporar a estudiantes que habían abandonado la educación. El operativo, coordinado por ANEP, MIDES, MEC, INAU y BPS, entre otros actores públicos y sociales, detectó 5.382 menores en edad de educación obligatoria que no asistían a clases. En conferencia de prensa, el presidente de la ANEP, Pablo Caggiani, y el ministro de Desarrollo Social, Gonzalo Civila, informaron que, de los 5.382 niñas, niños y adolescentes detectados como desvinculados del sistema educativo, 2.246 retomaron sus estudios en las primeras tres semanas de julio de este año. Las autoridades explicaron que la estrategia incluyó visitas domiciliarias y contacto directo con las familias, lo que permitió entender las causas del abandono, y, en ese sentido, detalló que no hay un único motivo. “Había necesidad de que hubiera otro yendo a buscar, conversando. Tenemos un conjunto de gurises que aún así no retornan. Ahí las situaciones son realmente múltiples y todas muy embromadas para la vida de los gurises, desde no poder dejar la changa porque hay que pagar la olla en casa, hasta situaciones de salud o de muerte del familiar que cuidaba. Es decir, nos está dando información de qué cosas tenemos que mover desde el Estado para garantizar el derecho a la educación y vincularlos a instituciones”. El Estado continuará el seguimiento y, mientras tanto, quienes no estén inscritos dejarán de percibir asignaciones familiares. Además, señaló que los adolescentes de 15 a 17 años fueron los que presentaron más dificultades para la revinculación, y agregó: “Ahí hay que poner la lupa, ver qué nos está pasando, y qué les está pasando a los gurises que no logramos que estén en un centro educativo”.

What's Really at Stake When it comes to short-pay vs long-pay life insurance, the question isn't just about convenience—it's about control, options, and legacy. https://www.youtube.com/live/dPxt8Nui4g4 In this article, you'll learn: The difference between short-pay and long-pay policies Why a long-pay design gives you more flexibility and cash value How reduced-paid-up life insurance contracts really work What to consider if you want to use your policy as a family bank How to align your design with your legacy goals and future self Let's pull back the curtain on what really creates a robust, long-term infinite banking system. The Iceberg We've All MissedWhat Does “Short-Pay vs Long-Pay Life Insurance” Actually Mean?Infinite Banking System Explained—Why Long-Pay Is Often BetterReduced-Paid-Up Life Insurance Contracts—Built-In FlexibilityShort-Pay vs Long-Pay Life Insurance Policy—What's the Real Tradeoff?7-Pay or 10-PayLong-Pay Whole LifeDesigning Life Insurance as a Family BankPolicy Design for Tax-Efficient Wealth GrowthFuture Self Planning with Life InsuranceBalancing Liquidity and Premium CommitmentWhat You Need to RememberLearn MoreBook A Strategy Call The Iceberg We've All Missed We've heard it so many times—"I want a 7-pay," "Just show me a 10-pay option." It sounds appealing, right? Pay for a short time, and then you're off the hook. But here's what we've found in real conversations with clients over decades: No one ever says 20 years later, “I wish I could've stopped paying sooner.” In fact, they say the opposite. They wish they could keep paying. Why? Because they've seen what a well-designed long-pay policy does for their capital, liquidity, and long-term options. What Does “Short-Pay vs Long-Pay Life Insurance” Actually Mean? This isn't just semantics. It's strategy. A short-pay policy is designed to have all premiums fully paid within a set period—typically 7 or 10 years. Think "7-pay" or "10-pay." After that, no further payments are required to keep the policy in force. A long-pay policy is structured to allow for premium payments for as long as possible—often up to age 100 or even 121. But here's the kicker: you're not required to pay that long. You just can. And that difference opens the door to flexibility, scalability, and legacy. Infinite Banking System Explained—Why Long-Pay Is Often Better Short-pay might look sleek on paper. But infinite banking isn't about what looks good—it's about building long-term capital access and control. Here's what we've seen: Short-pay designs limit your contribution window You hit a ceiling on how much capital you can inject Your banking system stagnates when you stop funding Long-pay designs allow you to keep capitalizing your system for decades. That means: More compound growth More tax-efficient access to capital More opportunities to use your policy for real estate, business, or retirement If you think long range and don't fear capitalization, you set yourself up to win. Reduced-Paid-Up Life Insurance Contracts—Built-In Flexibility Here's a secret most people don't realize: Every life insurance policy is a short-pay policy if you want it to be. Thanks to the reduced-paid-up (RPU) provision, you can stop paying premiums at any time after the MEC window (typically 5–7 years), and your policy will remain in force with a reduced death benefit. So why design short from the start? When you structure your policy as a long-pay, you maintain the ability to: Stop paying when you want Shift to paid-up status on your terms Keep your options open Short-Pay vs Long-Pay Life Insurance Policy—What's the Real Tradeoff? Let's compare: 7-Pay or 10-Pay Forces early funding Good for clients needing a limited-time premium window Restrictive if you want to contribute more later Long-Pay Whole Life Spreads premiums over time

You've probably heard about Modified Endowment Contracts (MECs) and wondered what all the fuss is about. Many people fear creating a MEC with their life insurance policy, but they don't really understand what it means or how it happens. In this episode, we break down the history behind MECs and why they were created in the first place. You'll learn how universal life insurance in the 1970s and 80s led to tax shelter abuses that prompted Congress to establish new rules. We explain exactly what happens when a policy becomes a MEC and what tax consequences you'll face. You'll discover that it's all about putting too much money into a policy relative to its death benefit, not just paying too much in general. You'll learn about the seven-pay test and how insurance companies track MEC compliance for you. We share real examples of how companies notify customers when they're approaching MEC limits and help them stay compliant. We also discuss the few situations where you might accidentally create a MEC, particularly with certain term riders attached to whole life policies. Plus, you'll find out when creating a MEC might actually be intentional and beneficial. The bottom line? You don't need to lose sleep over accidentally creating a MEC because insurance companies actively monitor this for you. ______________________________ Ready to learn more about life insurance strategies that work for your situation?

Engage Weekly is back with host F/O Adam Uhan as he provides key updates, news, and information from the Delta MEC's week. Tune in to also hear an update from the Delta MEC Chair, Capt. Eric Criswell, as he recaps the MEC's June 2025 regular meeting, current issues facing the pilot group, and plans for Section 6 negotiations just around the corner.Have a great weekend, everyone – see you next week!

In this episode, host F/O Ryan Argenta and Training Committee Chair, F/O Charlie Mader, unpack a growing pattern of dysfunction in Delta's Training Planning Department. Based on a steady stream of pilot reports, we highlight how disorganized scheduling, vague guidance, poor hotel logistics, and a lack of proper training support are creating avoidable obstacles for pilots — and undermining the standards outlined in the PWA. While our instructors remain professional and committed, it's clear that deeper issues in management's planning priorities and accountability are affecting pilot readiness and operational trust. We break down key concerns, explain what pilots need to watch for and what to do when affected, and discuss how the MEC is pushing for real solutions. Topics include:No-notice schedule changes and lack of required communicationInadequate hotel accommodations and rest protectionMissing seat supportPWA compliance concerns and ongoing grievancesWhat pilots can do now to protect themselves and push for change Delta pilots deserve a training system that works as hard as they do — this episode lays out what needs to change and how we get there.

Host F/O Adam Uhan wraps up the MEC's week with news and information for the Delta pilot group. Have a great weekend, everyone – see you next week!
