Dig out the policy document and check policy surrender value.

There's an premature cancellation cost. Best is pay finish, since your bro has already been paying for >10 years. But if he needs urgent cash and no choice, he prepared to only recover less Than half the value

really depends if it is an ILP or life policy. ILP have have surrender charges. As for Life policies, the surrender value will be lower than premiums the premiums paid.

Not a great idea to cancel after having had the policy for over 10 years. The returns for such policies are concentrated in the last few years of the policies.

that's insane, not only is your brother is taking a loss on the policy, but he wants to put the money from the policy into a risky "investment"? :s22:

Does he even know anything about a) cryptocurrencies (reading about it online doesn't count), b) trading based technical analysis?

If he knows neither, then he is better off learning something first instead of plunging head first into something that he has no idea about.

i think he know he say he earn some from other currency exchange.

not alot ba.. but his plan is putting in long term which i personal dont think so safe.. usually is best to fifo for trading.

The best ting is the policy not he pay one that why he don't feel the pain but under his name.
My aging parent pay one And he is jobless.
