Ideas to increase and protect your wealth

Article Abstract:

Life insurance policies given to family members are non-taxable. However, life insurance policies sold or transferred for a value have tax consequences since these are categorized by the IRS as taxable income to the beneficiaries. The IRS' Transfer for Value Rules, contained in the Internal Revenue Code Section 101(a)(2), should be first reviewed before transferring or selling any life insurance policy.
