Attend MDRT as an Aspirant or Manager

The Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) holds its annual meeting this June in Orlando. Members from around the world will be in attendance. The annual meeting is the flagship event for the MDRT. Top advisors from over 70 countries meet and share world class ideas on how to grow your business and how to develop a thriving practice. The main platform is always full of motivation, business ideas and stories that may change your life. Ten thousand people are expected this year.

The focus sessions are detailed sessions drilling down on the specifics of specialized subjects. Members and non-members are invited to speak on their area of speciality.
Networking with leading industry people (who become friends) is one of the highlights.

The mentoring program at MDRT provides a chance for non-members to attend as a guest.  The rules can be found at https://www.mdrt.org/membership/mentoring/, but here are some of the particulars:

The MDRT Annual Meeting scheduled for June 4-7, 2017 in Orlando, Florida, USA, has been described as a one-of-a-kind event — the life insurance sales meeting par excellence — and is only open to MDRT members.

However, once you are an enrolled aspirant, you are eligible to attend the MDRT Annual Meeting if you have achieved 50 percent of the MDRT member production requirement (USD 46,500 in commission or USD 93,000 in premium) or 75 percent of the MDRT member production requirement. 

Aspirants who achieve 50 percent or 75 percent of the MDRT membership qualification requirement:

1. Agents must be enrolled in the Mentoring Program by March 1 of the meeting year to be eligible to attend the meeting.

2. Aspirants are eligible to attend the MDRT Annual Meeting as a guest of their mentor. The mentor must be approved for current year membership and registered to attend the 2017 Annual Meeting, June 4-7 in Orlando, Florida, USA

3. Aspirants enrolled in the MDRT Mentoring Program may attend the Annual Meeting the first time if they have achieved at least 50 percent of the MDRT Membership production requirement and a second time if they achieve 75 percent of the Membership requirement.

4. BE AWARE that registration is on a first-come, first- serve basis. You must register by April 17 to avoid the late registration fee and secure housing and seating.

5. *Aspirants who previously attended the MDRT Annual Meeting as a member are NOT eligible to attend the Annual Meeting again an aspirant.

Good Luck, and maybe we will see you at MDRT.

Note, there is also a special program for Managers to attend. See the requirements at https://www.mdrt.org/companies/ under the Agency Manager Program.

The Importance of Financial Planning for the Future

I spoke with a physician client recently who’s family income was over half a million dollars per year. They have a good amount of cash built up in the RRSP (over $1,000,000) lots of cash in their corporation, and over $2,000,000 in real estate. They plan on working for at least 10 more years. A rough estimate of their worth would be between $6,000,000 to $8,000,000 by age 65. We were dealing with some insurance issues that needed to be solved and in the process I asked the question about retirement and asked what planning had been done. The plan was to keep going until retirement age, and then to assess the situation, she said. This was not an uncommon response as my experience shows many people spend more time planning a Christmas party then they do planning their financial future. My comment was this; if you were running a multi-million dollar corporation with very good cash flow, one where assets were growing compounded every year, would you want to have a business pl...

Critical Illness of Non-Employed Spouses

A fact of life is that people do get sick.   While disability insurance is a financial product used to replace an income for a working spouse, a non-employed or stay at home mom or dad does not qualify for disability income protection. This is when a Critical Illness policy can add value.  Aside from medical expenses, child care expenses or medical related travel costs, the working spouse often suffers an income loss when their spouse suffers an illness. Critical Illness coverage can provide a tax-free lump sum payment to help the family financially, and premiums are more affordable than one might think. For example, a non-smoking 30 year-old stay at home mom or dad can purchase a $100,000 policy covering over 25 illnesses for about $30 per month. In comparison, Halifax Metro Transit charges $78 per month for a bus pass, and cable TV and internet cost over $150 per month for a basic plan. A Critical Illness policy offers peace of mind, so you can recover with fa...
