Question #: 11
Topic #: 7
[All Series-6 Questions]

Ken has a variable life policy and recently learned that he can borrow against its cash value to help pay for some of the expenses he's incurring while pursuing a graduate degree.

Which of the following statements about the loan he can get is true?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The true statement is that Ken never has to repay the loan, but if he chooses not to do so, his wife, Barbie, won't get as much when he dies. He can borrow up to at least 75% of the cash value, but there is interest charged on the loan. (In essence, he's paying interest to himself, though.)

If he doesn't repay, Barbie's payout will be affected. That's a big deal!

Actually, he can borrow more than 50% depending on the policy terms.

Wait, he doesn't have to repay it? That sounds too good to be true.

I thought the loan would be interest-free since it's his own money?

You can definitely borrow against the cash value of a variable life policy.

I’m pretty certain that you can borrow against the cash value of a variable life policy, so D doesn’t sound right. But I can’t recall the exact borrowing limits.

I think I saw a question like this before, and it mentioned that loans against cash value do accrue interest, so option B seems wrong to me.

I remember something about how much you can borrow from a variable life policy, but I’m not sure if it’s a strict percentage or if it depends on the policy duration.

I feel like I read that you don’t have to repay the loan, but it affects the death benefit. So, C might be the right answer, but I’m not completely sure.

I'm pretty sure the valid example for the ---source attribute is URI://mydir/test.pdf, since that's a valid URI format.
