I am thinking of entering the nfl next year and thinking of buying life insurance?
03
Jun
I am thinking about going into the nfl next year, does it matter when I buy life insurance. Also term versus whole and what about disability. To rates increase since I am a professional athlete. Does it matter if I buy it before I am technically a pro athlete? Supposed to be a 5th rounder, making about 700k my first year
I have friends that work with northwestern mutual and was curious if they would be able to help me out?

When buying life insurance, does the agent know your past insurance “mistakes”?
24
May
I’m thinking of buying life insurance from someone I know well. Only thing holding me back from using this person instead of a stranger, is that sveral years ago, I had a policy and accidentally let it lapse (didn’t pay the premium in time and it was cancelled.) I always hear that insurance companies can check your credit report, but is there also a report that tells them about past insurance policies, how long they were active, etc? I don’t want this person to know about my mistake. Also, do they check your credit report? Nothing too embarrasing in there, I’m just wondering. Is there anything else I should know? I’m going to buy term life insurance from someone, just don’t know who.

Will buying a larger house in Florida protect my mother’s assets from Medicaid?
03
May
My mother owns a house in Florida free-and-clear. When my father passed last August, my mother became sole owner of the house (she is also on the title). My mother/father have two sons: me (the youngest) and my brother (who is mentally retarded–he is qualified with Social Security as disabled). Both sons are adults.
My father left me the bulk of his assets (the majority being the funds within his brokerage account) in order to assist me with the care of my retarded brother in the future. My mother is okay financially thanks to an annuity and social security.
Thing is, I want to preserve these brokerage funds for the future. What if my mom ends up in a nursing home?
To protect these assets, I want to gift the brokerage account funds to my mother. Then, my mother wants to sell her house and parlay the resulting funds into a new, larger house. She would also then apply the gifted brokerage account funds that I give her towards the new house.
Will this protect our assets?

I’m new to options. Is there a strategy to use options to achieve results similar to buying term life ins?
02
Apr
Rather they buying term life insurance for 10 year periods, could stock options or probably better index options be used to allow monetary protection at a small premium. My age makes term insurance expensive. I ask this question trying to think outside the box. Any help will be appreciated.

Annuity question on buying the car or leasing the car. How do you do it? Its for corporate finance.?
15
Mar
What is the present value of leasing this car. You put a down payment of 3000 dollars.
Monthly you pay $198 ( This is C)
You pay this for three years so t=3 and M = 12 since monthly so TM is 36
at the end of year three you buy the car for 7500 dollars.
The rate we will use is 6 percent.
so here is step 1. ok so we now pv is first 3000 because of downpayment.
step 2 follow the formula. 198(1-1/((1+.06/12) ^36))/(.06/12) = 65808.46
Last step and this is the part I cant figure out. We have 7500/(1.06^36)
but for some reason my teacher thinks it is 7500/ ((1.06^3)
I think she is wrong. Can someone please explain what the right answer is obviously.
Obviously the last step to the problem is to add up all the PV.

Buying my first home…need some advice?
08
Mar
Hi,
I am purchasing my first home (with my husband). The intercom system doesn’t work. When we had our home inspections, the inspector didn’t add this to his list (I asked him about it and he said that it didn’t have anything to do with the structure of the home). All of the issues on the home inspection sheet have been corrected. Now, we are wondering if we should bring up the broken intercom up at the settlement table. Both of the Realtor think that bringing this issue up at settlement will break the deal (because according to them I am getting a great deal). But, if I am purchasing a home…shouldn’t everything be in working condition. Some background information…we purchased the home for $25,000 below the asking price…but it appraised at the value that we purchase the home for. I am emotionally attached to the home…and don’t want to lose it…we are using everything that we have to purchase this home and we will be on a tight budget after we get this home and we can’t afford to have issues. Question: a. Should we bring this issue up at settlement (or are we being to picky). b. Should we purchase the house with the broken intercom system and just fix it in the future? c. Should we bring the issue up at settlement and if they don’t fix it – walk away from the house (with this issue, I am worried about losing my $1000 deposit).
Thanks in advance,
VC Travel

What to know when buying an annuity from the owner?
04
Mar
I found someone who wants to sell his annuity contract for cash now in exchange for assignment of the remaining payments. It seems like a good deal, but I really don’t know how to evaluate it and determine the risk. What questions should I ask and what paperwork do I need? Also, what fees should I expect? Thank you!
To add to the complexity, I am interested in purchasing the annuity with my self-directed IRA which is the type that allows you to invest in non-traditional investments, like real estate, tax liens, private placements, mortgages, notes, etc.
The annuity is with Mutual of Omaha.
Ruby – if I proceed it will be to have the annuity contract assigned to my IRA which will receive the annuity payments. This way I still have to meet the age requirements for taking distributions. So no, I’m not able to get the money directly as I am not 59 1/2.
