Hi everyone!

Recently prudential came out this newly upgraded wholelife multiplier plan.

Any advice for this plan?
Is it worth to buy?

It's indeed a new plan with new pricing this year. I guess first of all it depends on your intent. If you have really decided to buy a whole life CI plan, this plan is pretty competitive for certain gender and age group on a protection value/cash value per dollar premium basis. You can go compare first and take a look.

Btw....I am not the thread-starter asking for opinion. I am merely responding to the thread-starter's question as I have analysed this plan vs it's competitor's plan before.

Therefore, Pru Agents, please don't PM me and intro the plan. Thank you.

Yes bro... :s12:
Well why do you think the plan is not bad?
What dd you hear?
From my perspective, its a product I will not touch.
- They took away the concept of reversionary bonus (which is guaranteed when in declared)
- The entire policy is based on terminal bonus only which is entirely up to the insurer's discretion
- Their multiplier are not exactly cheap/value for money.

The older series - TM Legacy, TMLegacy Plus, TM Legacy Infinite are much better. Higher annual bonus (more certainty), lower terminal bonus (less uncertainty), higher guaranteed cash value (as a backup in case you need to surrender the policy at some point in time in life).

For this part: "And i seen lots of bad reviews regarding insurance due to cant get pay out ect..." i dont have an answer for u. Pobably the next 5yrs you also won't get a definite answer.
One thing to note is when people successfully receive a death claim or TPD claim, they wont post in on forum or facebook. But when a claim has been unsuccessful then things start going viral.

The WL is limit pay 10 yrs? U have a choice to do 15 years or even 20yrs "installment" if u feel the plan is right for you but premium exceeds your monthly budget.

Whole life plans are somewhat insurance with savings element. U pay higher premiums for the savings component. If you dont need that feature, get pure insurance aka Term.

For me i think insurance premiums no need so much...

The higher of premium the more money i need to pay more...

Bro... i believe you have misunderstood certain stuff..
U shouldn't limit ur coverage (esp to 200k) base on the premium.
If premiums is seriously a problem, get a Term. It cost less than $200/mth for like 500k coverage.

Alternatively, if u want limited pay Term, there's AXA that offers the option.
Personally there's nth that attracts me abt limited pay.

Bro, everyone's (at least most) are gonna buy a hse eventually. And we all know houses are not cheap. Still u'll need to see a bigger picture rather than letting tt commitment tie u up. I'm sure there're a lot other ways to work things out.
