I just read an article where the owner of a UIL policy is suing New York Life over the policy's cost-of-insurance charges. I understand UIL policies separate out the performance of the assets, mortality expenses, and other expenses. Did other companies offering UIL reduce their expenses due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017? Also, why did the policyholder wait almost 10 years to file the lawsuit?

Anyone else feel discourage ? I thought my interview went amazing and today I received the standard email rejection. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen those emails but this one hurt more than the others. I sat in my car and just cried. Hiding from my family, so they wouldn’t feel bad with me. Picked myself up, gave a few encouraging words to myself in the mirror and put my fake face on for my family. Can anyone else relate ?
