I am getting a hard, hard, hard sell on this stuff. From what I read it's not a good deal but I can't articulate it enough to get this person off my back.
Their sell is it will make more money on a return than my current stuff (index funds capturing the entire stock market, in Vanguard, and other similar things). Their stuff ties to some other index, plus gets a multiplier ("participation rate" they call it) and part of the sell is that it's non-taxable someday, but then again so is a lot of my retirement money already because it's Roth.
I'd be interested in your opinion of UIL, good or bad. This person is relentless. But it scares the f out of my to take a few hundred K out of Roth IRAs and put it in some vehicle I don't understand. (The UIL stuff seems very complicated to me.) I at least need a good enough reason to back this person off.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
