It’s about leverage and having access to a pile of money before I can accumulate that amount of money. The beauty of the VUL part is that you’re still accessing the markets with your cash value so you’re not missing out on that part. The downside to that is the internal fees will be higher than what it would have been if you invested in just index funds, but you’re getting tax deferred growth inside the policy as well and maintain flexibility of its use so I do believe it makes sense.

Ah yes, leverage. The ole I can loan money from myself arguments?
How do you have access to a pile of money before its grown to become a pile of money?
FWIW I'm not against any of these, I just have yet to see one argument where it makes any sort of sense to not self insure. Statistically speaking your chances of a stay in LTC if you are married and/ or have children for over a year is very low. As in, likely not to be expensive.
