Originally posted by @Jenning Yu:The problem with your numbers is that on the life insurance side you only considered the return produced by the new loan each year.You forgot to reinvest the profit from the prior year return.So in year two, you are taking a loan of $81,090 but the return will be $8,568 because the 10% return was not only on the $81,090 but on the $81,090 +$4,590 that was left over from the prior year.I made a better spreadsheet with also accounting for taxes.Cash value: 85% of the premiumLife insurance return: 6%Loan value: 90% of cash valueLoan rate: 4%Tax rate: flat 20%If the outside investment return is 10%, the insurance + investment overpass the investment in year 9.at 15% return, it will be on year 15.at 18% it will be on year 29,at 20% you'll probably be dead before :-(.Now if the life insurance return is 8%,if the outside investment return is 20% the life insurance overpass the investment only in year 8at 25% it will be year 11.at 28% it will be year 18at 29% it will be year 25at 30% you'll be dead before.Of course, a higher tax rate will favor the insurance side.
