John is a member of the Columbus/Worthington Ohio Estate Planning Council and the local Business Advisory Council. The presentation, "Retirement Income Backstop", focused on how to inform and demonstrate how permanent cash value life insurance plays an important role in a client’s financial plan during the Retirement years . John discussed: - Managing risks in retirement - withdrawal risk, sequence of returns, longevity risk/outliving assets, inflation risk and taxes - How the tax preferred treatment and flexibility of permanent life insurance can provide a backstop against these risks in retirement - How permanent life insurance provides tax and portfolio diversification for a client’s financial plan. A key takeaway is for financial advisors and planners to consider permanent life insurance when helping their clients prepare for and live their retirement years.   | ![NAIFA-Columbus President Dan Brookman](https://columbus.naifa.org/hs-fs/hubfs/NAIFA-Columbus%20President%20Dan%20Brookman.jpg?width=330&height=440&name=NAIFA-Columbus%20President%20Dan%20Brookman.jpg) NAIFA-Columbus President Dan Brookman | ![Luncheon Speaker John Fitzpatrick - 1-1](https://columbus.naifa.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Luncheon%20Speaker%20John%20Fitzpatrick%20-%201-1.jpg?width=315&height=420&name=Luncheon%20Speaker%20John%20Fitzpatrick%20-%201-1.jpg) Luncheon Speaker John Fitzpatrick | | --- | --- |     - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) # TOPIC LIST : - [#NAIFAProud (20)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/naifaproud) - [NAIFA-Columbus (17)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/naifa-columbus) - [Lifetime Achievement Award (5)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/lifetime-achievement-award) - [NAIFA (4)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/naifa) - [Podcast (3)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/podcast) - [Advocacy (2)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/advocacy) - [Future Leaders (2)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/future-leaders) - [Press Release (2)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/press-release) - [Social Security (2)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/social-security) - [2025 Strategic Plan (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/2025-strategic-plan) - [Advanced Planning (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/advanced-planning) - [Careers in Financial Services (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/careers-in-financial-services) - [Certifications & Designations (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/certifications-designations) - [DOL (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/dol) - [Diverse Markets (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/diverse-markets) - [Excellence Award (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/excellence-award) - [FSP (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/fsp) - [Federal Advocacy (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/federal-advocacy) - [Financial Literacy (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/financial-literacy) - [Gold Chapter Excellence Award (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/gold-chapter-excellence-award) - [Grassroots (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/grassroots) - [Hall of Fame (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/hall-of-fame) - [Knowledge Centers (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/knowledge-centers) - [LACP (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/lacp) - [Leaders (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/leaders) - [Legislation & Regulations (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/legislation-regulations) - [Life Annuity Certified Professional (LACP) Program (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/life-annuity-certified-professional-lacp-program) - [Life Happens (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/life-happens) - [Long-Term Care (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/long-term-care) - [Loyal Member (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/loyal-member) - [Loyal Member Profile (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/loyal-member-profile) - [Members (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/members) - [Membership (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/membership) - [Membership Meeting (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/membership-meeting) - [New Member Profile (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/new-member-profile) - [Professional Development (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/professional-development) - [Standard of Care & Consumer Protection (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/standard-of-care-consumer-protection) - [YAT (1)](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/tag/yat) ###### [** Previous Post](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/naifa-columbus-president-elect-chosen-as-4-under-40-recipient) [![](https://columbus.naifa.org/hubfs/4Under40%20Graphics-Design%20Change-1000x620px-blogpost.webp) ](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/naifa-columbus-president-elect-chosen-as-4-under-40-recipient) ###### [NAIFA-Columbus President Elect Chosen As 4 Under 40 Recipient](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/naifa-columbus-president-elect-chosen-as-4-under-40-recipient) ###### [Next Post **](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/27th-annual-i.-david-cohen-lifetime-achievement-award-recipient-0) [![](https://columbus.naifa.org/hubfs/columbus-logo.png) ](https://columbus.naifa.org/blog/27th-annual-i.-david-cohen-lifetime-achievement-award-recipient-0) ###### [NAIFA Columbus' 27th Annual I.
