Money Talks
Recent unemployment numbers have undermined confidence that we might be nearing the bottom of the recession. The appropriate metaphor is not the green shoots of new growth. It's better to view the total of jobless people as a prudent navigator perceives an iceberg.
What we see on the surface is disconcerting enough. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimate of 467,000 jobs lost in June increases to 7.2 million the number of unemployed since the start of the recession.
The cumulative job losses over the past six months have been greater than for any other half-year period since World War II, including demobilization. What's more, the job losses are now equal to the net job gains over the previous nine years, making this the only recession since the Great Depression to wipe out all employment growth from the previous business cycle.
That's bad enough. But here are nine reasons we are in even more trouble than the 9.5% unemployment rate indicates:
1. June's total included 185,000 people assumed to be at work but many of whom probably were not. The government could not identify them; it made an assumption about trends.
But many of these mythical jobs are in industries such as finance that have absolutely no job creation. As official numbers are adjusted over the next several months, some of the 185,000 will likely be added to the unemployment totals.
2. More companies are asking employees to take unpaid leave. These people don't count on the unemployment rolls.
3. At least 1.4 million people weren't counted among the unemployed, even though they wanted work or were available in the past 12 months. Why? Because they hadn't searched for work in the four weeks preceding the survey. The assumption is that they had found work or don't want it, but there are other explanations: school attendance, family responsibilities, sheer exhaustion.
4. The number of workers taking part-time jobs because of the slack economy, a kind of stealth underemployment, has doubled in this recession to about 9 million, or 5.8% of the work force. Add those whose hours have been cut and the total of unemployed and underemployed rises to 16.5%, putting the number of involuntarily idle workers in the range of an overwhelming 25 million.
5. The inside numbers are just as bad. The average workweek for production and non supervisory private-sector employees, around 80% of the work force, dropped to 33 hours. That's 48 minutes a week less than before the recession began, the lowest level of activity since the government began tracking such data 45 years ago.
Full-time workers are being downgraded to part-time as businesses slash labor costs to remain above water. Factories operate at only 65% of capacity. If American workers were still putting in those extra 48 minutes a week, 3.3 million fewer employees could perform the same aggregate amount of work. With a longer workweek, the unemployment rate would reach 11.7%, not the official 9.5% (which in turn dramatically exceeds the 8% rate projected by the Obama administration).
6. The average length of official unemployment increased to 24.5 weeks. This is the longest term since the government started to track these data in 1948. The number of long-term unemployed (those out of a job for 27 weeks or more) has now jumped to 4.4 million, an all-time high.
7. The average worker saw no wage gains in June, with average compensation running flat at an average of $18.53 an hour.
8. The jobs report is even uglier when you consider that the sector producing goods is losing the most jobs -- 223,000 in the last report alone.
9. The prospects for job creation are equally distressing. The likelihood is that when economic activity picks up, employers will first choose to increase hours for existing workers and bring part-time workers to full-time status.

Money Talks
And though he's a Harvard Business School grad, Biderman's insights about how the market moves are more than purely academic. In order to pay back his school loans, he spent the 1970s and 1980s building a career in real estate development until, in 1988, his bank went broke and his loans were called.
Biderman was forced into personal bankruptcy and emerged with key insight: price is a function of liquidity, it has nothing to do with value.
That notion led him to form TrimTabs, which sells proprietary research about the markets, money flows and the economy to investors (currently one-fourth of the biggest hedge funds in the United States are clients, and Goldman Sachs purchased a minority stake in the company last year).
Candid and colorful in conversation, Biderman's exhaustive research has produced some alarmingly simple findings.
For instance: "When companies are net buyers of stock, the market goes up, when they're net sellers the market goes down," he says. Indeed, one of his favorite metrics to watch is the number of stock buybacks by corporations, which he says start climbing at the trough of every downturn (something, as we note in our Recovery Index, that hasn't happened yet.)
Biderman talked to FORTUNE's Lee Clifford about what the Recovery Index is showing now, the one move Obama needs to make, and when he thinks the stock market will finally hit bottom.
Fortune: Give us your take on the health of the overall economy right now.
Biderman: Things are getting worse. The job market continues to contract. Incomes keep declining, even after adjusting for the latest round of tax credits. We don't see any slowdown in the rate of declines in incomes or job losses. There's no end in sight.
I've been looking at the numbers, comparing the three-week Easter season this year versus last year. Incomes are down 10%. We haven't seen anything like that for decades.
Fortune: How do you view the policy responses from Washington so far?
Biderman: The only thing that's helping anybody right now is the $400 per person [$800 per couple] tax cut. That's helping somewhat. But I'm a little cynical. My feeling is that the divine purpose of the political system is to raise money for politicians so they can get reelected.
The banks that are in trouble have paid Congress a lot of money over the years. You and I don't pay anything to the congressman. What we would recommend is that instead of focusing on getting the banks to lend, you've got to focus on giving wage earners more money.
Fortune: You don't believe any of the recent stock market rallies have been for real. Explain.
Biderman: Well, what you've had recently is $2 billion a week in tax refunds that started to go out during the first in week February and will continue through the third week in May. I suspect that's part of the reason for the stock market rally, but that's only temporary.
In March there was a little revival in refinancing, but again, I think the number of people who are in a position to take advantage of refinancings right now is pretty small. The glimmers of hope were temporary and now we see that things are declining again.
Fortune: Talk about what you're seeing in terms of the housing market.
Biderman: If we look at homes, while the number of foreclosures seems to be dropping somewhat, the notices of default are at record levels and so we expect the foreclosures to spike up again too. If you look at what's really going on, right after the 'peak' in foreclosures in September, there was a moratorium on foreclosures, but that ended in March. Once those pick up again, it's going to be a new down leg in the real estate market.
Fortune: If there's one policy you could implement now to help fix the economy, what would it be?
Biderman: If we cut withholding rates by 15%, and we did it for three years, it would be $300 billion a year in lower taxes, which is less than it costs to bail out some of these institutions. But we're not doing that, so instead you're creating a situation where more and more consumers are going to be defaulting on their debts. Forget new lending, the real problem for banks is going to be collecting on all these loans, and the problems are going to be way beyond sub prime.
Fortune: In your view, what would be the single best sign that we've hit bottom?
Biderman: That foreclosures dry up. That'll be a sign that household wealth has stabilized. Things aren't going to hit bottom until the real estate market bottoms, and we work through all the problem homes, and people can afford the homes they're in. Then we can grow from there.
Fortune: And when do you think that might be?
Biderman: At least another year. We probably won't see a bottom till sometime in 2010. We're still in retreat.
Fortune: You've long taken issue with the way the government collects some economic data. What bothers you most?
Biderman: Just look at how they track income and jobs. When everybody gets paid, the amount of money withheld goes to the government. From that you could tell who had jobs and how much they're making. But instead of tracking this in aggregate and reporting it in real time, the Bureau of Economic Analysis uses historic data that's 5 to 7 months old and based on state unemployment data to come up with estimate of current income and job gains or losses. Then of course they always go back and revise the number. But they never have a press release about the revisions. What's equally annoying is that nobody's taking the time to say, 'this is crazy!'
The economy is crazy indeed, as seen from the article listed above on CNN Money. It goes without saying that people are dazed and confused in the current trends of the economy. It is clear that conditions are worsening, even though the major news sources are telling the opposite.
What can you do as an average American citizen to learn the real truth about money, investing, financial institutions, and is there a way to recover lost wealth, and income in this time of economic uncertainty?

Money Talks
You often hear that we are now living through the worst recession since the early 1980s, and the comparison is not wrong. But it's ultimately unsatisfying, because it is a little too vague to be useful.
Is the economy only a little worse than it was in the last couple recessions, as some have said, and still a long way from the dark days of 1982? Or are we instead on our way toward something that may even approach the severity of the Great Depression?
Without more specifics, it is hard to judge the staggering stimulus numbers being thrown around Washington. It is hard to know how tough a task the Obama administration is facing — and whether it's running the risk of being too timid or too aggressive.
I thought it would make sense to get some clearer historical perspective, and the economists at the Bureau of Labor Statistics were nice enough to help me do so. In the last week, they helped me put together a broad measure of the job market — one including both official unemployment and more subtle kinds — stretching back to 1970. Since the job market covers the entire economy and affects families in tangible ways, it seems to be the single best yardstick.
And it shows, for starters, that the economy is not yet as bad as it was in the early 1980s. It's not even that close to being as bad. The ranks of unemployed and underemployed, controlling for the size of the population, were much larger in 1982 than today.
But economies are a little like battleships. They turn slowly, and you can often tell where they are going before they get there. At The New York Times, we're discouraged from using the word "unprecedented." ("Use the term rarely and only after verifying the history," the stylebook says.)
So suffice it to say that the serious recent declines in retail sales, business spending and employment make it highly unusual that the economy will improve anytime soon. The job market will almost certainly continue to worsen for most of 2009. Even if the much-needed stimulus bill passes, the economy is likely to end the year in roughly as bad a shape as its 1982 nadir. Which is saying something.
The recession of the early 1980s doesn't have a catchy name, and almost half of Americans are too young to have any real memory of it. But it was terrible — qualitatively different from the mild recessions of 1990-91 and 2001.
The first big blow to the economy was the 1979 revolution in Iran, which sent oil prices skyrocketing. The bigger blow was a series of sharp interest-rate increases by the Federal Reserve, meant to snap inflation. Home sales plummeted. At their worst, they were 30 percent lower than they are even now (again, adjusted for population size). The industrial Midwest was hardest hit, and the term "Rust Belt" became ubiquitous. Many families fled south and west, helping to create the modern Sun Belt.
Nationwide, the unemployment rate rose above 10 percent in 1982, compared with 7.2 percent last month. But that rate has a couple of basic flaws, as I've discussed in previous columns. It counts people who have been forced to work part time, even though they want to work full time, as fully employed. It also considers people who have given up looking for work — so-called discouraged workers — to be no different from retirees or stay-at-home parents. They simply aren't counted.
Years ago, the Labor Department responded to criticism about these issues by creating several broader measures of joblessness. Unfortunately, they don't exist prior to 1994. But the department was doing similar work in earlier years, which allows the economists who work there to make estimates about how to compare the various survey categories over time. I took these estimates — and they are estimates, not official statistics — and created a measure of unemployment that goes back to 1970.
Including discouraged workers, the measure shows that the unemployment rate was 7.6 percent last month. Another 5.2 percent of the labor force was involuntarily working part time. These two groups bring the combined rate to 12.8 percent.
Even this is an understatement, because the Labor Department's definition of discouraged workers is a little narrow. To be counted, somebody must have looked for a job in the last year. And there appear to be several hundred thousand people — mostly men — who stopped looking for work more than a year ago but would gladly take a good-paying job if one came along. They would lift the rate above 13 percent.
As bad as the number is, it is still not that close to its 1982 peak of 16.3 percent (or anywhere near its Depression levels, which were probably above 30 percent). The early '80s really were that bad.
So why are public opinion polls showing Americans to be even gloomier about the economy today than they were back then? I think there are two main reasons.
First, the economic expansion that just ended wasn't as good as the 1970s expansions. The '70s get a bad rap, and deservedly so in many ways. But median family income still rose 2 percent during the decade, after adjusting for inflation. Over the past decade, it has fallen.
Second, people seem to understand that the worst is yet to come — that the economy has not yet worked off its excesses.
A good reminder came in a recent report on the Manhattan real estate market by Goldman Sachs. It looked at apartment prices relative to rents, incomes and mortgage rates and concluded that prices were 19 to 44 percent higher than historical norms. Jan Hatzius, Goldman's chief economist, was careful to say that prices won't necessarily drop by that much. But we should know by now that old-fashioned economic fundamentals deserve some respect.
In much of the rest of the country, home prices also still have some amount to fall. Banks still have more losses to acknowledge. Companies have more jobs to cut. Some time this year, one in six workers may find themselves unemployed or underemployed, just as was the case in 1982.
The biggest risk is that these problems will feed on themselves and make the situation even worse than now seems likely. That has been the pattern for the past year and a half. If it continues — and it will without a big stimulus package — the economy really could end up in worse shape than it's been in more than 60 years.
Money Talks-The Solution
According to the article posted above from The NY Times, the economy appears to be struggling, to say the least. What does this mean for the average person on the street? Is it a pre cursor to more doom and gloom? Is there really no hope for the future? Does it mean that you just bury your head in the sand, and give up?

Money Talks will offer solutions that you can use today, to begin the journey back into sanity, in an insane economic world.

Money Talks and the Economy
The forgettable first half of 2008 is stumbling to a close. On Friday, the Labor Department reported that American employers axed 49,000 jobs in May, the fifth straight month of job losses—an event that signals a recession sure as the glittery ball dropping on Times Square augurs a New Year. The report, which inspired a 394-point decline in the Dow Jones Industrial Average Friday, was the latest in a run of bad news. Auto sales, the largest retailing sector in the U.S., were off 10.7 percent in May from the year before. And housing? Ugh. Nationwide, according to the Case-Shiller Index, home prices in the first quarter fell 14 percent.
Yet hope springs eternal that the second half will be better than the first. Economists polled by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia in May believe the economy will grow at an annual rate of 1.7 percent and 1.8 percent in the third and fourth quarters, respectively. Lawrence Yun, chief economist at the National Association of Realtors, tells NEWSWEEK that "home sales and prices in most of the country will improve during the second half of 2008." (Yun is the Little Orphan Annie of forecasters. He's always sure the sun will come out tomorrow.) Last month, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said, "We expect to see a faster pace of economic growth before the end of the year."
The cause for optimism: the U.S. has called in the economic cavalry, which has responded in textbook fashion. The Federal Reserve has aggressively cut interest rates, bringing the Federal Funds rate down from 5.25 percent last September to 2 percent. Earlier this spring, Congress and President Bush, in a rare moment of bipartisan accord, passed a stimulus package, which will shove nearly $100 billion into the pockets of American consumers by mid-July.
But this downturn is likely to last longer than the eight-month-long recession of 2001. While the U.S. financial system processes popped stock bubbles quickly, it has always taken longer to hack through the overhang of bad debt. The head winds that drove the economy into this dead calm— a housing and credit crisis, and rising energy and food prices—have strengthened rather than let up in recent months. To aggravate matters, the twin crises that dominate the financial news—a credit crunch and the global commodity boom—are blunting the stimulus efforts. As a result, the consumer-driven economy may not bounce back as rapidly as it did in the fraught months after 9/11.
As it seeks to regain its footing in the second half, the U.S. economy faces two significant obstacles, neither of which was evident in 2001. The first is entirely homegrown: the self-inflicted wounds of the promiscuous extension and abuse of credit in the housing and financial sectors. The second is a global phenomenon that has comparatively little to do with American behavior: rampant inflation in commodities such as oil, food and steel. These trends have conspired to inflict genuine economic pain and deflate consumer confidence. The Conference Board's Consumer Confidence Index in May slumped to a 16-year low.
While the treatment of the current malaise has been essentially identical to the reaction to the 2001 slump—aggressive Federal Reserve rate cuts and tax rebates—the symptoms are quite different. In 2001, an implosion in the technology sector and a slump in business investment pushed the economy over the edge. Even though some 3 million jobs were shed between 2001 and 2003, consumers soldiered on through the downturn. "We had a massive reduction in both long- and short-term interest rates, which set off the housing and consumption boom," says Ian Morris, chief U.S. economist at HSBC. (Remember zero-percent car loans?) This time, it's the opposite. While businesses—especially those that export—are holding up, the economy is being dragged down by the cement shoes of a freaked-out consumer and a punk housing market.
The difficulties today start—as they began last year—with housing and housing-related credit. Last Thursday, the Mortgage Bankers Association quarterly report showed that the percentage of mortgage borrowers behind on their payments—6.35 percent—was the highest since the MBA began tracking the number in 1979. It's not just subprime. In the first quarter of 2008, 36 percent of all foreclosures initiated were on prime adjustable-rate mortgages in California. Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody's Economy.com, says the decline in home prices has slashed $2.5 trillion from household wealth, or about $25,000 per homeowner. The fall has also removed an important source of support for consumer spending, as Americans who grew accustomed to borrowing against rising home equity to finance car purchases or vacations now find themselves bereft. Banks are extricating themselves from the home-equity-line-of-credit business in the same way college students get themselves out of relationships gone bad: abruptly. Judi Froning, a second-grade teacher in San Diego, was surprised last week when she received a letter from Chase informing her that it was terminating her untapped HELOC. "In the light of declining home values, they said they are stopping, effective May 31, any draw on my line of credit," she says.
Despite repeated claims that the damage has been contained, the banks that recklessly financed the housing boom—and then traded mortgage debt even more recklessly—are still cleaning up the mess. But it turns out (surprise!) the same sort of clouded judgment led banks to excesses in commercial lending, and in loans to private-equity firms. The battered financial system, which has raised tens of billions of dollars on onerous terms from new investors to shore up balance sheets, is still likely to suffer more pain from the popped credit bubble, said Bruce Wasserstein, the CEO of the investment bank Lazard, speaking at a New York breakfast. "The harm will radiate for another year." The latest victim: Wachovia CEO G. Thompson Kennedy, cashiered after the North Carolina-based bank suffered a string of losses. Next up: write-offs for bad credit-card and commercial real-estate debt. After a serene period between 2004 and '07 in which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. went without a single bank failure, four have gone under so far this year. FDIC chairperson Sheila Bair warned of the "possibility that future failures could include institutions of greater size than we have seen in the recent past." In preparation, the agency has brought staffers out of retirement.

Money Talks
In talking about money and finances, it would be noteworthy to look deeper into the aspect of money, to evaluate its importance in the mindset of individuals. There are two pervasive features that come more clearly into focus when money talks appears.
1. You have enough money to do the things you wish, buy the items you require and are basically financially sound for the future.
2. You struggle and strain to make ends meet. You work increasingly longer hours, perhaps at more than one job, but honestly, you can just never break the glass ceiling on having enough money, in your own mind, to live without stress and be comfortable in your setting.
For those of you who fall into category one, you obviously have taken time, and made the effort to understand how to make money, but more importantly, how to keep the money that you make. You are financially sound, no matter what the current economic trends happen to be. You are to be commended that you are definitely in the top 10 percent of your game, and I recommend that you keep doing exactly what it is that you do, in order to maintain that money flow.
For the people in the second group (which are most of us), you need to do some serious introspection into the problems of lack. Its a fact that lack is more mindset, than it is reality. If you have the proper mindset about money and finances, you will inevitably come out the winner. Conversely, if you have the wrong mindset, your outcome will come out exactly as you are planning it within your own mind.
Now this is not theory. This is fact. This is why Money Talks, by Dr. Raymond Jewell, may be the answer to some of the financial distresses that you now face.

Life Insurance-Things to Know BEFORE You Buy!
Term life insurance is the purest form of life insurance. It is not a permanent kind of life insurance and what differentiates it is the term. This mans that for an agreed upon term, the insured is insured against several risks that may or may not happen during term. If it does happen during the term, the insurer will then have to pay the proceeds of the term life insurance to the beneficiaries of the policy. After the term ends, the insured can drop the policy altogether and all the risks that he is insured against will no longer be compensated if it does happen. There will be no more compensation since the occurrence happened after the term. Moreover, the premiums that were paid will not revert back to the insured. There is therefore no return of insurance premiums in a term life insurance. This does not mean however that once the term ends, the person can no longer be insured. The person can be insured again by the insurer and in most cases, the term is renewed right after the end of the original term. It all depends on the agreement and the term can be continued or renewed with another payment of the insurance premiums.
Term life insurance can be very helpful for the beneficiaries of the deceased as it can cover all the miscellaneous fees that need to be taken care of upon the death of the insured. It can cover for the unreal services and the hospital expenses of the deceased and could also cover outstanding debts such as mortgages of their property. A term life insurance protects these families from the problems that they will encounter due to the death of the person and will allow them to focus on mourning the person's loss.
There are many different kinds of life insurance and some of them would prove to be equally helpful to the families. However, a term life insurance is probably the easiest to understand because of its simplicity. It is important to understand that a term life insurance is a very useful tool in protecting our loved ones from the problems that sudden death may bring. Protecting them should always be a priority.
Becoming educated in the ways of life insurance BEFORE you purchase it, is one way to assure that you are covered adequately, and that you can make your money invested work for you. Financial education and insight are necessary in learning how to further your own economic future.

Life Insurance-Things You Need to Know!
One of the more important things to consider when deciding whether term life insurance would be a good choice for you is whether you want your policy to serve as insurance only or whether you'd like for it to have a separate value as well. Whole life policies gain value over time due to investments, and this value can be used to secure loans in much the same way that equity loans borrow against the value of a home. Since this feature is not offered with term life insurance, if you would like for your policy to have its own value then whole life is the way to go.
Whole life policies also take care of the biggest problem with term life insurance… instead of the policy only lasting until the end of a specific period of time, your whole life policy will offer coverage to you until you pass away regardless of how long that is. This can allow you to guarantee that your family and other loved ones will be taken care of as you wish without having to worry about whether the term of your insurance will lapse before that time. If you only want your life insurance to provide coverage for you until your retirement fund kicks in or you're trying to make sure that your family will be provided for while the kids are still living at home, then you would probably better off with a term life policy.
One other factor that should be taken into consideration when deciding whether or not to buy whole life insurance is whether you can afford it or not. Whole life policies are generally more expensive than term life, and if the cost of the insurance that you buy is going to be a major factor then it's important to make sure that you can afford the whole life premiums. An increasing number of whole life policies are being offered with locked-in premium rates so that they won't continue to increase with time, but you should still make sure that you're getting a rate you'll be able to afford over the years before locking it in.
If you're still undecided as to whether you would benefit from a whole life policy or if term life would be better for you, take the time to talk to insurance agents about the differences in the policies. Express your concerns and what you're looking for and they will be able to answer your questions and provide you with additional information about whole life policies. This will help you to make an informed decision as to whether a whole life insurance policy is the right fit for your needs.

Life Insurance
One stipulation of insurance is that the insurer will pay the insurance claims to the beneficiaries of the insured if an insured event that is covered by the policy occurs. Insured events are specified events covered by the insurance policy. These events should be based on the lives of the people included in the policy. Sickness can be covered by an insurance policy.
Like any other contract, life insurance has terms that describe the liabilities and limitations of the insurer and the insurance coverage respectively. Events that are excluded from coverage are generally written in the contract to limit the insurance company's liability. One example of exclusion is suicide.
Life-based insurance has two major types. Protection policies are those that are designed to grant benefit upon the occurrence of a specified event. The insurance claims are usually paid in lump sums. Term life insurance is an example of this policy. Another type is investment policies. The objective of these is to assist the build up of cash value by regular premiums. The common forms of these policies are whole life, variable life and universal life insurance.
The parties involved in insurance contracts are the insurer, the policy owner, the insured, and the beneficiaries. The insured and the policy owner are often the same person, but there are circumstances that they are two different individuals. A wife who purchases insurance for her husband is the policy owner, while the husband is the insured person. The wife is the person responsible for the payment of monthly premiums, while the husband is the person that is covered by insurance. In the event that the insured person dies, the insurance claims are then paid to the beneficiaries of the insured. The beneficiaries are normally the dependents who receive the death benefit to be paid by the insurance company. They may either be persons, business entities or organizations.
The cost of the insurance premiums are normally based on the risk that an insurer has to take to insure a person, the probability that a person will die, and the administrative costs and profits to be incurred by the insurance company. The probability of death is taken from mortality tables that are based on age, gender, and tobacco use.
In the event of the insured's death, beneficiaries are required an acceptable proof of death before they are paid the insurance claims. The normal required proof is a death certificate and a completed insurer's claim form. In circumstances where the death of the insured individual is suspicious, the insurance company has the right to investigate on the death before deciding if it has an obligation to pay the death benefit for the life insurance to the beneficiaries of the insured.

Life Insurance
Types of life insurance
Life insurance may be divided into two basic classes – temporary and permanent or following subclasses - term, universal, whole life and endowment life insurance. Learn More About Life Insurance BEFORE you purchase!
Temporary Term Insurance
Term assurance: provides for life insurance coverage for a specified term of years for a specified premium. The policy does not accumulate cash value. Term is generally considered "pure" insurance, where the premium buys protection in the event of death and nothing else.
There are three key factors to be considered in term insurance:
1. Face amount (protection or death benefit),
2. Premium to be paid (cost to the insured), and
3. Length of coverage (term).
Various insurance companies sell term insurance with many different combinations of these three parameters. The face amount can remain constant or decline. The term can be for one or more years. The premium can remain level or increase. A common type of term is called annual renewable term. It is a one year policy but the insurance company guarantees it will issue a policy of equal or lesser amount without regard to the insurability of the insured and with a premium set for the insured's age at that time. Another common type of term insurance is mortgage insurance, which is usually a level premium, declining face value policy. The face amount is intended to equal the amount of the mortgage on the policy owner's residence so the mortgage will be paid if the insured dies.
A policy holder insures his life for a specified term. If he dies before that specified term is up, his estate or named beneficiary receives a payout. If he does not die before the term is up, he receives nothing. In the past these policies would almost always exclude suicide. However, after a number of court judgments against the industry, payouts do occur on death by suicide (presumably except for in the unlikely case that it can be shown that the suicide was just to benefit from the policy). Generally, if an insured person commits suicide within the first two policy years, the insurer will return the premiums paid. However, a death benefit will usually be paid if the suicide occurs after the two year period.
Permanent Life Insurance
Permanent life insurance is life insurance that remains in force (in-line) until the policy matures (pays out), unless the owner fails to pay the premium when due (the policy expires OR policies lapse). The policy cannot be canceled by the insurer for any reason except fraud in the application, and that cancellation must occur within a period of time defined by law (usually two years). Permanent insurance builds a cash value that reduces the amount at risk to the insurance company and thus the insurance expense over time. This means that a policy with a million dollar face value can be relatively expensive to a 70 year old. The owner can access the money in the cash value by withdrawing money, borrowing the cash value, or surrendering the policy and receiving the surrender value.
The four basic types of permanent insurance are whole life, universal life, limited pay and endowment.
Whole life coverage
Whole life insurance provides for a level premium, and a cash value table included in the policy guaranteed by the company. The primary advantages of whole life are guaranteed death benefits, guaranteed cash values, fixed and known annual premiums, and mortality and expense charges will not reduce the cash value shown in the policy. The primary disadvantages of whole life are premium inflexibility, and the internal rate of return in the policy may not be competitive with other savings alternatives. Also, the cash values are generally kept by the insurance company at the time of death, the death benefit only to the beneficiaries. Riders are available that can allow one to increase the death benefit by paying additional premium. The death benefit can also be increased through the use of policy dividends. Dividends cannot be guaranteed and may be higher or lower than historical rates over time. Premiums are much higher than term insurance in the short-term, but cumulative premiums are roughly equal if policies are kept in force until average life expectancy.
Cash value can be accessed at any time through policy "loans". Since these loans decrease the death benefit if not paid back, payback is optional. Cash values are not paid to the beneficiary upon the death of the insured; the beneficiary receives the death benefit only. If the dividend option: Paid up additions is elected, dividend cash values will purchase additional death benefit which will increase the death benefit of the policy to the named beneficiary.
Universal life coverage
Universal life insurance (UL) is a relatively new insurance product intended to provide permanent insurance coverage with greater flexibility in premium payment and the potential for a higher internal rate of return. There are several types of universal life insurance policies which include "interest sensitive" (also known as "traditional fixed universal life insurance"), variable universal life insurance, and equity indexed universal life insurance.
A universal life insurance policy includes a cash account. Premiums increase the cash account. Interest is paid within the policy (credited) on the account at a rate specified by the company. Mortality charges and administrative costs are then charged against (reduce) the cash account. The surrender value of the policy is the amount remaining in the cash account less applicable surrender charges, if any.
With all life insurance, there are basically two functions that make it work. There's a mortality function and a cash function. The mortality function would be the classical notion of pooling risk where the premiums paid by everybody else would cover the death benefit for the one or two who will die for a given period of time. The cash function inherent in all life insurance says that if a person is to reach age 95 to 100 (the age varies depending on state and company), then the policy matures and endows the face value of the policy.
Actuarially, it is reasoned that out of a group of 1000 people, if even 10 of them live to age 95, then the mortality function alone will not be able to cover the cash function. So in order to cover the cash function, a minimum rate of investment return on the premiums will be required in the event that a policy matures.
Universal life insurance addresses the perceived disadvantages of whole life. Premiums are flexible. Depending on how interest is credited, the internal rate of return can be higher because it moves with prevailing interest rates (interest-sensitive) or the financial markets (Equity Indexed Universal Life and Variable Universal Life). Mortality costs and administrative charges are known. And cash value may be considered more easily attainable because the owner can discontinue premiums if the cash value allows it. And universal life has a more flexible death benefit because the owner can select one of two death benefit options, Option A and Option B.
Option A pays the face amount at death as it's designed to have the cash value equal the death benefit at maturity (usually at age 95 or 100). With each premium payment, the policy owner is reducing the cost of insurance until the cash value reaches the face amount upon maturity.
Option B pays the face amount plus the cash value, as it's designed to increase the net death benefit as cash values accumulate. Option B offers the benefit of an increasing death benefit every year that the policy stays in force. The drawback to option B is that because the cash value is accumulated "on top of" the death benefit, the cost of insurance never decreases as premium payments are made. Thus, as the insured gets older, the policy owner is faced with an ever increasing cost of insurance (it costs more money to provide the same initial face amount of insurance as the insured gets older).
Limited-pay
Another type of permanent insurance is Limited-pay life insurance, in which all the premiums are paid over a specified period after which no additional premiums are due to keep the policy in force. Common limited pay periods include 10-year, 20-year, and paid-up at age 65.
Endowments
Endowments are policies in which the cash value built up inside the policy, equals the death benefit (face amount) at a certain age. The age this commences is known as the endowment age. Endowments are considerably more expensive (in terms of annual premiums) than either whole life or universal life because the premium paying period is shortened and the endowment date is earlier.
In the United States, the Technical Corrections Act of 1988 tightened the rules on tax shelters (creating modified endowments). These follow tax rules as annuities and IRAs do.
Endowment Insurance is paid out whether the insured lives or dies, after a specific period (e.g. 15 years) or a specific age (e.g. 65).
Accidental Death
Accidental death is a limited life insurance that is designed to cover the insured when they pass away due to an accident. Accidents include anything from an injury, but do not typically cover any deaths resulting from health problems or suicide. Because they only cover accidents, these policies are much less expensive than other life insurances.
It is also very commonly offered as "accidental death and dismemberment insurance", also known as an AD&D policy. In an AD&D policy, benefits are available not only for accidental death, but also for loss of limbs or bodily functions such as sight and hearing, etc.
Accidental death and AD&D policies very rarely pay a benefit; either the cause of death is not covered, or the coverage is not maintained after the accident until death occurs. To be aware of what coverage they have, an insured should always review their policy for what it covers and what it excludes. Often, it does not cover an insured who puts themselves at risk in activities such as: parachuting, flying an airplane, professional sports, or involvement in a war (military or not). Also, some insurers will exclude death and injury caused by proximate causes due to (but not limited to) racing on wheels and mountaineering.
Accidental death benefits can also be added to a standard life insurance policy as a rider. If this rider is purchased, the policy will generally pay double the face amount if the insured dies due to an accident. This used to be commonly referred to as a double indemnity coverage. In some cases, some companies may even offer a triple indemnity cover.
Life Insurance Facts You Should Know BEFORE You Purchase!
Life Insurance
Life insurance or life assurance is a contract between the policy owner and the insurer, where the insurer agrees to pay a sum of money upon the occurrence of the insured individual's or individuals' death or other event, such as terminal illness or critical illness. In return, the policy owner agrees to pay a stipulated amount called a premium at regular intervals or in lump sums. There may be designs in some countries where bills and death expenses plus catering for after funeral expenses should be included in Policy Premium. In the United States, the predominant form simply specifies a lump sum to be paid on the insured's demise.
As with most insurance policies, life insurance is a contract between the insurer and the policy owner whereby a benefit is paid to the designated beneficiaries if an insured event occurs which is covered by the policy.
The value for the policyholder is derived, not from an actual claim event, rather it is the value derived from the 'peace of mind' experienced by the policyholder, due to the negating of adverse financial consequences caused by the death of the Life Assured.
To be a life policy the insured event must be based upon the lives of the people named in the policy.
Insured events that may be covered include:
* Serious illness
Life policies are legal contracts and the terms of the contract describe the limitations of the insured events. Specific exclusions are often written into the contract to limit the liability of the insurer; for example claims relating to suicide, fraud, war, riot and civil commotion.
Life-based contracts tend to fall into two major categories:
* Protection policies - designed to provide a benefit in the event of specified event, typically a lump sum payment. A common form of this design is term insurance.
* Investment policies - where the main objective is to facilitate the growth of capital by regular or single premiums. Common forms (in the US anyway) are whole life, universal life and variable life policies.

Prudential
Its stock fell 2.3% premarket to $39; shares, though, are up 32% this year and have nearly quadrupled since bottoming out in March.
A number of companies in November sought federal help as they were hit by billions of dollars in investment losses and worries about their capital levels. Prudential has lost money in the past three quarters on woes in its investment portfolio.
But especially in the past month, a wide spectrum of companies have been able to raise money directly from investors who have shown to be less risk averse than they had been.
Prudential made its decision "after conducting a thorough review." The Wall Street Journal reported last month, after the Treasury gave its belated blessing to allow life insurers access to TARP, that Prudential would likely decline the request.
Ameriprise Financial Inc., one of six life insurers that were preliminarily approved in May, said it wouldn't participate. Allstate Corp. also has declined to accept funds.

Money Seminar
How long has it been since you have actually been told the truth about money and finances? I would suppose that this would equally apply to absolutely anything that you hear, or read. Lies and smoke are prevalent, not only on Google, but also on the media. You will never hear the real truth from reading your favorite newspaper, or by listening to your favorite television channel. Basically, all forms of the media are owned by huge conglomerates that will cater to the desires of stock holders, and not the common people who absorb the trash that is fed them like voracious and hungry wolves.
How long has it been since you have actually been told the truth by your bank, or mortgage lending Establishment? How long ahas it been since your government has actually shared with you the real truth behind the scenes? Its a well known fact that this whole country is run by a select few. They push all the buttons around the world. Have you been told the truth, or simply told what you want to hear?
How long has it been that you actually knew where your money is going in taxes? This holding out the real story even applies to your own grass roots politicians in your home town. The term truth, has lost its power in this country, and you have let this happen. I remember the phrase from a popular Jack Nicholson movie: "You can't handle the truth!"
Can you handle the truth about your money and finances? Would you be shocked to learn that there is a way to learn how to deal effectively with the financial institutions of this country? What if you really could learn where your money is actually going, and how to protect yourself against losing money in the future? Would that help you in any way?

Financial Planning does not Work!!!
Over the years financial planners have been sitting in front of clients showing them spreadsheets and ledgers about numbers. Over the years the numbers never happen! Why? Because it is only opinion instead of fact. This is one reason why financial planning does not and will not work.
There is no method of verification or showing that what is being said is truth. No wonder people are failing and outliving their money. You see, money is not math and math is not money. There are to many other variables to consider, but not for the financial planners of the world, they use math and assume that their opinions will work. Folks this is called gambling and why would you gamble with your hard earned dollars?
Unless you have a method of verifying whether what is being told to you is truth or not, you will always lose. When you get someone's opinion you are being set up for failure or allowing your self to be set up for failure. Whenever anyone's whole financial world is structured around financial markets there will be failure simply because of the cycles that the financial markets go through.
When times are great people think they are financial geniuses, but when times get tough and markets drop people blame others when in fact it's really your fault. Yes if you lost large chunks of money you are the one to blame simply because the buck stops at you. So why wouldn't you take the time to learn how to do it right.
It doesn't have to be that way! You can learn how to eliminate the financial ups and downs simply by thinking differently and looking at the financial world differently. We are offering a tele seminar on "Wealth Recovery" where you will learn how to look at the financial institutions in whole different light. You will be able to see how to win in down markets and verify everything that you do for truth, and not have to listen to some financial planner's opinion.
To take advantage of the seminar go to www.MoneyTeleSeminars.com and sign up for the 'Wealth Recovery" tele seminar and learn how to think like a financial institution.
To understand your financial world in the most efficient way you must look at everything in an economic model and be able to see your financial mistakes before you make them. When you can see your mistakes ahead of time you can fix them and avoid costly financial losses. When you come to the tele seminar you will learn how to look for an advisor who has a macro economic perspective and not a micro financial planning perspective.
If you are reading this article as a result of getting our Money Talks Newsletter then pass it on to a friend so then can learn how to win. They would appreciate it and so would I. Our goal is to reach 1,000,000 people and teach them how to look at their financial world through a macro economic grid and be able to see their mistakes before they happen and need your help. If you haven't signed up for the tele seminar then I have a gift for you. I will give it to you for free all you have to do is go to the link below and sign up but there is one catch, you have to bring a friend. Give the link to a friend.
If you alredy paid for the tele seminar you will get an additional 1/2/ hour so in total you will have a full hour to go over your economic information. Your one-on-one meeting will be on-line with me where you will be able to see the economic simulator in action. You will have one full hour to ask as many questions as you wish, with no obligation. Money Seminars is designed to be your roadmap to financial security for the long term.

Business Mentoring
When their information is based on "opinions" and not facts, and then they present to you opinionated reasons that you should do what they say. If you question what they tell you then they dazzle you with terminology that makes your eyes glaze over. Never lose sight of the four basic rules of financial institutions, which are below.
The financial institutions must get your money.
The financial institutions must get your money on a systematic and ongoing basis.
The financial institutions must hold on to your money for as long as possible.
The financial institutions must give your money back as little as possible.
We have recently seen that the financial institutions are not able to keep themselves afloat so why would it work for individuals. Many wealthy people have been saying for years that financial planning does not work and the financial crisis proves this true. As a consumer you should demand that your financial expert has the ability to build an economic simulator so you can see your financial future before it happens. Economic Simulation is necessary in planning your financial future.
When looking for a financial advisor you must check income as I mentioned before, and make sure that the financial person has the ability to get you to higher levels. They only way they can get you to a higher level is if they are already there. Also don't be fooled with the massive degrees and titles they have after their name it still doesn't mean that they know what they are talking about. Financial Planners give out unverifiable information and can't prove what they are actually saying. Ask for proof! If they can't give you verifiable proof than you are being taken advantage of. I know these are strong words but I can back them up.
We actually prove every financial move to our clients, and can show the financial future before it happens. When this is done you now have an enormous amount of financial power.
The theme of this article is to remind you of the reasons why financial planners are in existence and that they must follow specific rules to stay in business. Once they get your money there is no guarantee that they have to hang on to it.
We have just seen the worst financial crisis that has hit the United States in over 100 years with very little remorse on the part of the financial institutions to the consumer. With the upper management of these financial institutions taking huge incomes and living the life of luxury on your money then letting these financial institutions go out of business they have violated their fiduciary responsibility to the consumer.
Demand an economic model where you can see your financial mistakes before you make them and then correct them before they happen.
Thanks for your interest,

Money Seminar
"Are you better off today then you were ten years ago?"
We all know the answer to this question don't we? Many people are downright angry about what has happened over the last several years but don't know what to do, or where to turn. The reason why many people have lost is because they listened to bad advice. We have all seen that the financial system, over the years, has let the public down but because of the financial institutions ability to spend large sums of money on advertising they have convinced the public that they have the right answer. Even though people have lost huge sums of money the financial institutions and financial planners are still sticking with their mantra that they are the answer.
No longer do you have to guess, going forward in the future. We have been using our economic simulators to help clients over the years see their mistakes before they are made and now you can to. When you take advantage of our economic simulation process you will see the mistakes before they are made then you can fix them. You no longer have to live through financial tough times, you will see them coming ahead of time and eliminate them. If you have no mistakes then you will at least have verification that you are doing things right.
If you would like to learn how the financial institutions take advantage of you then you should come to our MoneyTeleSeminars.com "Wealth Recovery" TeleSeminar. You will learn terminology that will enable you to look at the financial institutions the way the wealthy do. If ten percent of the people control ninety percent of the worlds wealth they this proves that the financial institutions, financial planners, and many accountants are wrong otherwise the ninety percent would control the wealth and they don't." So doesn't it make sense to do what the ten percent do?
