Monday, June 26, 2023, 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Category: Webinar
Bryan Clontz, PhD, CFP®, CLU®, ChFC®, CAP®, AEP®, RICP®, CBP, ChSNC® In a land far, far away (Washington, DC), a group of incredibly handsome and beautiful princes/princesses (actuaries) developed mysterious potions and spells (mortality tables) to confuse and befuddle the nobles, knights and peasants (gift planners). As they searched for their king’s treasure (donations), they pondered how this dark magic impacted their lives in so many known and unknown ways (income tax deductions and ACGA rates). And why were the spells developed so, so long ago (2010), only to be unleahsed recently (effective June 1, 2023)… had the prince and princesses eaten poisoned apples that made them sleep for 13 years???!!! And why do different potions/spells have such a dramatic impact on different kinds of friends/foes/dragons (donors)? And what evil sorcery and chemistry is used to create them (mortality table rate construction assumptions)? Space is limited to register early! All participants will receive an electronic copy of the ACGA Mortality Study during the webinar and access to the recorded webinar the day after.
