Most advisors miss it. You don’t have to. Take 60 seconds to see if it fits your situation.
A tiny fraction of Americans ever use this kind of strategy,
while most stash money into taxable or contribution‑capped accounts by default.
Accounts like these aren’t new. Properly structured, they’ve been used for generations by affluent families and public figures to grow wealth in a tax‑advantaged way and pass it on efficiently. They’re fully legal and sit within current U.S. rules when set up and funded the right way.
Translation: It’s not a magic trick. It’s a legitimate strategy most people never get shown.

Shelf Limits: Firms prefer a narrow product menu, simple to supervise, and easier to scale.
Incentives: Recommendations often follow company priorities, not your optimal after-tax outcome.
Result: A small minority ever uses this strategy while most default into capped or fully taxable accounts.
Yes! These strategies rely on long-standing provisions in U.S. law. The key is compliant design, funding, and maintence.
Those are great for many people, but they come with contribution caps, potential tax exposure, and less flexibility. This approach can compliment them by focusing on after-tax efficiency and access.
Not all advisors are trained on it, and some firms limit what their reps can present. And about 98 out of 100 of them do not understand what the strategies that we teach.
There are eligibility, funding, and time‑horizon requirements—and the design must be done right. That’s why we start with a quick fit check.
You can still take the quiz. We’ll show you if there’s a modified path or if traditional accounts are a better first move.
No. Many clients keep their existing plan and add this as a parallel track.
These strategies rely on long‑standing rules, but laws can evolve. Your design can be adjusted (funding, access strategy, coordination with your CPA) to stay aligned. We don’t predict or guarantee future law, flexibility is precisely why many clients add this approach.
In many designs, yes when structured correctly. Before you commit, we map a clear access strategy (timing, limits, coordination with your CPA/attorney) so you know exactly how to use it without derailing your plan.
