Debt Strategies

Recapture every dollar of interest you pay.

Most families lose 34¢ of every dollar to interest on debt — mortgages, cars, credit cards. A properly structured cash-value plan turns that lost interest into your personal banking system.

  • Borrow against your own cash value at any age, for any reason
  • Your money keeps compounding even while you use it
  • Pay off high-interest debt and own your mortgage faster
  • Tax-advantaged growth, guaranteed by contract

For Retirees

Turn a portion of your savings into guaranteed monthly income — protected from market downturns and designed to last as long as you do.

Debt Strategy

"Honestly we thought we just had to live with the debt. Two mortgages, the cars, a couple credit lines — when James added it all up we were looking at like 49 years of payments still scheduled out. He showed us a different way to run our money through and the interest we're going to save is close to $300k. We'll be totally done in 14 years and 7 months instead. Same paycheck, same house. Still kinda hard to believe."

"We had like $38k in credit card debt and we were just barely keeping up. James laid out the order to pay them in and it cut years off. We've got 2 months left and I still can't believe it."

Debt Strategy

"We were about to refinance to consolidate everything. James ran the numbers and showed us we'd actually end up paying more over the long run. He literally talked us out of using him for that and pointed us in a better direction. That's when I knew he was the real deal."

Retirement Income

"Worked 34 years at GM and the whole time I was scared the money would run out. James put together a plan where part of it is guaranteed for life and the rest can still grow. I actually look forward to retiring now instead of dreading it."

"I'm a widow and I was tired of guessing every month. James set it up so a paycheck shows up in my checking account, same amount, same day. That's all I wanted. He didn't try to sell me a bunch of stuff I didn't need."

Retirement Income

"I'm self employed, 62, no company plan, nothing. James helped me build my own pension basically. Took a while to understand it but once I did I just felt dumb for not starting sooner. Guaranteed income for life starting at 67 — that's all I needed to hear."

Mortgage Protection

"James set us up with mortgage protection a little over a year ago and I honestly didn't think about it much after. Then my husband had a heart attack and didn't make it. The house was paid off without me having to fight anybody. I don't know how to thank him for pushing us to do it when we did."

Linda P.
Bay City, MI
Mortgage Protection

"The bank tried to sell us their mortgage insurance at closing and we almost said yes. Glad we waited and talked to James first. What he set up costs less and actually pays our family if something happens, not the lender. No brainer once you see it side by side."

Tom & Angela B.
Mortgage Protection · Ogden, UT
Mortgage Protection

"We just had our second kid and the 30 year mortgage was kinda freaking me out. James walked us through a plan that protects the house but also builds something we can actually use later. First time my wife and I left a meeting like that not feeling stressed."
