| Summary, etc. |
"Recently widowed, Harrell 'Hank' Maisel, 62, had nowhere to turn. His bagel shop was on the skids. Creditors circled on mounting credit card debt. His home was in the grip of foreclosure. And just when circumstances couldn't get worse, he was diagnosed with a terminal illness. The former California aeronautical engineer might have died in bankruptcy, leaving nothing but debt to his heirs. Instead, he turned to the viatical industry so he could take advantage of the money that eventually would be paid out from his life insurance policy. Despite a troubled history and widespread calls for reform and tighter regulation, viaticals can be a way to help people like Maisel when the transactions are executed properly." (CHICAGO TRIBUNE) This article presents the Maisel family's experience with using viaticals and explains how this "case underscores why the industry should be expanded, better regulated and celebrated." |
