Term + IUL: your family's timeline
Term carries the heavy years and steps down as the mortgage shrinks and the kids grow up. The IUL keeps going for life — funding for a while, then paying you back. Here is what all of it looks like together, year by year.

Use these numbers
No PDF handy? Paste the ledger instead — one row per year:
age, premium, account (or cash surrender) value, death benefit , plus a fifth number for income taken that year if there is one.
Spaces, tabs or commas all work. The IUL side then shows the carrier's figures instead of my estimate; your term ladder stays layered on top.

Goal names (optional)
Each block of distributions in the illustration becomes a labelled box on the timeline. Name them in the order they happen.
