Universal Life - look at the charges

Dear Mr. Tan,
What is your opinion on the use of "universal life insurance" as a retirement tool. It is highly recommended if the objectives of retirement is to be able to maintain a comfortable lifestyle during retirement and to also preserve wealth to pass it on. Let me have your comments. Thanks

REPLY
Universal life in a life insurance product. It is likely to have high charges taken away from your savings to pay commisison to the agent. You should ask the agent about the charges. A universal life policy is likely to have charges similar to an investment-lined plan.

You can read about the charges on investment-linked plan (ILP) from this FAQ
