Insurance Service

Insurance

Model your life, disability, critical illness, and annuity policies within your retirement plan. Compare premiums vs. benefits, analyze tax impact, and see how insurance protects your financial future.

Life Insurance

Model term and permanent life insurance policies. See how death benefits protect your family and estate when you reach life expectancy.

Annuities

Stress Test Scenarios

Run what-if scenarios: simulate disability at a specific age or a critical illness diagnosis. See how your plan holds up when life throws a curveball.

Tax Impact Analysis

Understand how insurance affects your taxes. Prescribed annuities, non-taxable disability benefits, and tax-free death benefits — all modeled in your plan.

Premium vs. Benefit Analysis

Compare total premiums paid against benefits received. See ROI, break-even point, and net impact. Know exactly when your insurance pays for itself.
