The Dramatic Need
Many financial services
companies focus only on
the wealthy few, thus many
middle-income individuals
and families are grossly
underserved.
People Need Help
There is a gap between the number of people
who say they need life insurance (65%) and
those who say they are extremely or very likely
to purchase it in the next year (3% and 7%
respectively)1
The middle market represents the largest segment
of uninsured households2
There is a need for education: Less than a quarter
of middle-market consumers are comfortable with
their level of financial knowledge and more than
three quarters believe they would benefit from a
financial services professionals guidance.2
Six in 10 workers report they and/or their spouse
have less than $25,000 in total savings and
investments, excluding their home and defined
benefit plans, which includes 36% who have less
than $1,000. However, of those workers with
annual household income of less than $35,000,
68% report having saved less than $1,000,
compared with 23% with incomes between
$35,000$74,999 and just 3 percent of those
with $75,000 or more a year in income.3

Where Most
Families Are Today
Whats the price?
Without financial security there is:
No peace of mind
Stress and frustration
A negative impact
on the family
Lost opportunities
Lack of confidence
Lack of hope
Lowered expectations
Lack of dreams
Whats the impact?
We believe that many families:
Live with insufficient protection and too much debt
Have no savings, or do not know why or how much
money they should save to reach their goals
Do not have a strategy for their futures, do not
make enough money and are not sure what to do
about either
9. 7
To provide individuals and families
with a better quality of life, we
have to help this change.
10. 8
A Different Kind of Company
There is a need for a different kind of
company in financial services. WFG believes
that we are that company.
WFG associates:
Reach out to middle-income individuals and
families instead of just the wealthy few
Help clients establish goals and give them a
clear strategy on how to reach them
Help people build a stronger, more sound
financial foundation
11. 9
Some people believe wealth is:
Extravagant lifestyle: celebrities,
high-salaried sports stars, etc.
Exotic sports cars, expensive homes,
designer brands
But most people who try to
live a wealthy lifestyle:
Spend the money they earn or more
Dont attain wealth but, instead,
accumulate large amounts of debt
Financial security requires
discipline
Its necessary to develop discipline,
and the ability to determine needs
versus wants.
The discipline to
determine needs versus
wants is necessary to
achieve financial security.
What is Wealth?
12. 10
True financial independence means to:
Save more and spend less
Live within ones means
Protect loved ones should the
worst-case scenario occur
Reduce and eliminate debt
Save sufficient funds to cover
expenses for six months to a year
Build long-term savings that protect
you and your family for life
Financial independence
offers peace of mind.
13. 11
WFG and its associates
believe in a respectful,
no-pressure process.
How WFG Associates
Conduct Business
On the first visit, the associate
discusses concepts, gathers data
and information, and makes a
follow-up appointment.
The associate performs a financial
needs analysis for the client.
The associate returns to present the
analysis and recommendations.
14. 12
Basic Financial Concepts
Knowing and understanding three basic financial concepts can help people have and
enjoy financial security. This is what WFG associates teach.
Managing Rate and Risk4
The Rule of 72 - If you divide 72 by the rate of return being earned, you will obtain
the approximate number of years required for your initial savings to double.
4 The Rule of 72 is a mathematical concept that approximates the number of years it will take to double the principal at a constant rate of return. The performance of investments fluctuates over time and,
as a result, the actual time it will take an investment to double in value cannot be predicted with any certainty. Additionally, there are no guarantees that any investment or savings program can outpace
inflation. All figures are for illustrative purposes only and do not reflect an actual investment in any product.
$20k
38 47 56 65
$40k
$80k
$160k
For example, the Rule of 72 tells us that an
investment earning a constant 8% rate of return
should double approximately every 9 years.
So, if you made a $10,000 investment at
age 29, with an 8% rate of return, it
should grow to about $160,000 by age 65.
15. 13
The Power of Time
Time can be your greatest ally or your worst enemy. If you havent started saving
for your future, start now.
Reduce the Impact of Taxes6
When saving, you want to ensure to consider the effect that taxes can have on
your income.
5 All figures are for illustrative purposes only and do not reflect an actual investment in any product. Additionally, they do not reflect the performance risks, taxes, expenses or charges associated with any actual investment,
which would lower performance. This illustration is not an indication or guarantee of future performance. Contributions are made at the end of the period. Total accumulation figures are rounded to the nearest dollar.

11 If the cash value of a life insurance policy is withdrawn for retirement then please note that money withdrawals from the
cash-value part of the insurance policy can be treated as a form of income. The withdrawals can also reduce the insurance
policys death benefit. Unpaid loans taken by the life insurance policy owner can also reduce the death benefit paid to the
beneficiaries.
12 If the cash value of a life insurance policy is used for college savings then please note that money withdrawals from the
cash-value part of the insurance policy can be as a form of income and does count against needs-based financial aid in the
following year. The withdrawals can also reduce the insurance policys death benefit. Returns within an insurance policy may
not keep pace with rising college cost and surrender charges in the life insurance policys early years may reduce the cash
value. A cost-benefit analysis should be performed to determine if this long-term college savings strategy makes financial
sense for a particular family.
