S2E4: Keeping your family cottage IN the family - with Dan McMullen

In this episode we flipped the script and interviewed BTB Co-Host Dan McMullen. It is certain that a lifestyle advantage of being a teacher is having the summer months off.  Many teachers take advantage of this and spend time lakeside at a family cottage.  In this episode, Dan shares how he is helping cottagers navigate the new realities of cottage ownership. Capital gains taxes, property taxes and rising maintenance costs are a real threat to cottage ownership.  Being a Licensed Life Insurance Advisor,  Dan explains how he is using cash value life insurance to help cottagers put a legacy plan in place to secure the family cottage for generations to come. **** Follow us on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/beyondthebellteachers/] and join our community on Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/groups/1881461892229744] We are always looking for new guests from across the country.
