Educational estimate—confirm before acting.

These figures are estimates for comparison only. A licensed financial advisor or insurance professional must confirm actual carrier quotes, state availability, rider terms, and whether a contract fits your situation before you act.

For comparisons that require a flat account-crediting path, AdvisorWorld currently uses a 5% assumed annual credited rate. Contractual rider roll-up rates are income-base mechanics, not guaranteed market returns.
