5Glitch
Usually, when one stumbles over something that
appears too good to be true, it is not true.
However, every so often, one discovers some
glitch in the marketplace where for some reason
the risk-return equation is out of whack. I
believe the Life Settlement market is currently
such a find. Carlton Breed - 2005
A Life Settlement is the sale of an existing life
insurance policy, of any individual 65 years or
older. The price of the policy is negotiated and
sold by the owner, at a discount to the face
amount. The purchaser then collects the full face
amount of the policy when the policy matures (the
death benefit).
