My Choice IUL ®
Smart financial choices should be easy.
Choose Your Best Future
Cross the Retirement Finish Line
You’ve worked hard, and you’re starting to think seriously about your future. Do you have enough life insurance to protect your family and enough put away to enjoy the retirement you want?
There’s still time to set aside more to supplement your retirement income, but how do you make sure you’re making smart choices1?
Good news! My Choice Indexed Universal Life Insurance can help you get on your way to achieving these goals. Putting permanent life insurance in place protects your loved ones in case the worst should happen. Plus, this life insurance includes the potential to build cash value. You’ll have access to an indexed account linked to the performance of the S&P 500® Index. We’ve also designed the indexed account to protect you from market-based losses in down-market years2.
Help During Illness
Plus, My Choice IUL is there for you when you need help in uncertain times, offering Chronic and Terminal Illness Accelerated Death Benefit Riders that allow you to access a portion of your life insurance benefits while you are still living – at no additional cost3.

IUL is not an investment. It is a life insurance policy product that provides growth potential through index interest crediting. You cannot invest directly in an index.
Loans and withdrawals will reduce the policy’s death benefit and available cash value. A loan, withdrawal or surrender may be a taxable event. For tax advice, consult with your professional tax advisor. Excessive loans or withdrawals may cause the policy to lapse.
Death benefit proceeds from a life insurance policy are generally not included in the gross income of the taxpayer/beneficiary (Internal Revenue Code Section 101(a)(1)). There are certain exceptions to this general rule including policies that were transferred for valuable consideration (IRC §101(a)(2)). This information should not be construed as tax or legal advice. Consult with your tax or legal professional for details and guidelines specific to your situation.
The IUL product is not intended to serve as a primary source for retirement, pension income or deferral of taxable income.
