Insurance products can take away the fear of the unknown, give financial options offered nowhere else and are more exciting than you think. John Trahms tries to demystify Life Insurance and Annuities for normal people and give you tools for success.
Emergency Fund | Turning emergency money into a real asset.
Everyone has heard that you should have money set aside for a rainy day or emergency. Traditionally the recommendation is to put the money into a savings account or CD because they meet both requirements for this type of thing. Namely that they are easy to access and have little or no cost to using.
No one really remembers though that Life Insurance can do the same thing, only instead of little or no growth (less than 1% interest in CD's) now you can have close to 6%!!
Pluss you can get long term care benefits and tax free income in retirement.
Set up a time to talk to John at Insurancefoundations.com (https://insurancefoundations.com/) and find out how it could work for you.

Words that Hold You Back | Re-defining Your Future
Words are powerful. Unfortunately, they also can be harmful. This episode focuses on words that are used frequently about our future and how they are actually harming your future because they have no specific meaning.
A lot of different aspects about future planning and wealth-building are covered, but the most powerful word talked about is Legacy.
What are you telling your loved ones right now about what is worth working for? What are you showing them is the purpose of your future? What are you focused on and why? Legacy (in John's opinion) is not only the protected wealth you leave behind but also the purpose and love for what that money can be used to do or experience.
You can contact John by E-mail (//John@insurancefoundations.com) or visit the website (https://insurancefoundations.com/) to read the latest articles and set up a review of your finances and what options you might have for the future.

How annuities make money | Intro to Indexing
How can your money grow in an annuity? Depending on the annuity it grows either at a fixed rate or through indexing.
Indexing follows stock market indexes and doesn't actually buy stock. It is just the ability to grow when those markets grow and never loose money if they go down.
I also give my recommendations on how I like to structure annuities and why.
If you want to set up a free fiancanial review to see how your annuitiy is working for you or to find out if an annuity can improve your financial position and give you peace of mind reach out to John Trahms at Insurance Foundations (https://insurancefoundations.com/)
