In fact, finding the right LIRP for your tax-free retirement plan can be just like finding the ideal spouse. Just as you likely had a list of qualities you were looking for in a life-long partner, you should have certain attributes and provisions in mind when looking for the ideal LIRP.

Publisher's summary
What is financial freedom and how do you achieve it?
That is a question I asked myself in 2014.
My name is Curtis Ray, from Gilbert, Arizona, and the author of this book Everyone Ends Up Poor™. I want to tell you my story of financial discovery through family, entrepreneurism, product development, and an array of experiences. This is not a traditional story of an investment strategy secret or 401(k) success, but a story of true pursuit of knowledge, breaking down the whole system of financial planning, and discovering the inefficiencies and underwhelming results of the 401(k), IRA, Roth IRA and other traditional financial plans.
Throughout the book, I look back on my life of running numerous businesses, what I learned through rapid success, partnerships, my rise and fall of financial wealth, and what ultimately led me to a career in educating the public on the Rules of Money and how to achieve financial security.
This book is like no book every written, explaining clearly why a 401(k), IRA, Roth IRA, and other traditional retirement vehicles are not your friend, were never designed to produce you a good retirement income, and why Everyone Ends Up Poor™. Once someone understands the pitfalls of the current financial system, I explain the steps that can be taken to improve your retirement success by up to 400 percent. Through the experience and knowledge found in my journey, anyone can start the path of financial freedom today. In this book, I explain the seven rules of money prosperity, the nine pillars of financial planning, pitfalls to avoid as an entrepreneur, and the one-of-a-kind financial strategy called Maximum Premium Indexing or MPI™.
Everyone Ends Up Poor™ will challenge every belief you have regarding the current financial planning system.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 221
Whenever I tell people about my job as a financial advisor, the conversation inevitably turns to how hopeless they feel when it comes to dealing with money. More than once they've begged, "Just tell me what to do." It's no surprise that even my most successful friends feel confused or paralyzed. Even if they have a shelfful of personal finance books, they don't have time to make sense of all the information available.

I only wish I had this information when I entered into the workplace, and MPI was available. Thank you for giving the information and education, and for wanting to make this world a better place. This is an excellent book to help you start your financial planning for the future, and let you know that it's not too late if you haven't started and you're willing to your fifties.

Fascinating look at the Personal Financial Plan.
This was a well thought out book addressing many "traditional strategies" most people use...but may not be the best.

max funded IUL
memorable, will look into max funded iuls. Iras and other retirements, definitely are sneaky, maybe still worth investing for 4% as long as its known an it's just another revenue stream.
