Did You Know?

Money in the future is worth less than money today.

To think of it in simple terms, if you loaned a person $1000 today and they said they would return the $1000 in 10 years. You lose all the value of today's money and future interest if you invested the $1000 in your savings account over the same 10 years. Also inflation and prices of almost everything increases in 10 years. There is also the risk if the person will pay it back and on time.

So you would not be able to buy as much with that $1000 that would be returned in 10 years. So $25,000 paid in 50 payments of $500 per month for next 4 years, may be worth today $18,506.44 +- or less. There is also the un measurable factor of  "Needing a large amount of money now". To get super technical if your up for it you can read an economics presentation outline from the University of Wisconsin with examples of present value and the value of money. Read More >

Any transfer agreement entered into on or after the effective date of this act by a payee who resides in this state shall provide that disputes under such transfer agreement, including any claim that the payee has breached the agreement, shall be determined in and under the laws of this state. No such transfer agreement shall authorize the transferee or any other party to confess judgment or consent to entry of judgment against the payee. C. No transfer of structured settlement payment rights shall extend to any payments that are life-contingent unless, prior to the date on which the payee signs the transfer agreement, the transferee has established and has agreed to maintain procedures reasonably satisfactory to the annuity issuer and the structured settlement obligor for 1. Periodically confirming the payee’s survival; and 2. Giving the annuity issuer and the structured settlement obligor prompt written notice in the event of the payee’s death. D. No payee who proposes to make a transfer of structured settlement payment rights shall incur any penalty, forfeit any application fee or other payment, or otherwise incur any liability to the proposed transferee or any assignee based on any failure of such transfer to satisfy the conditions of this act. E. Nothing contained in this act shall be construed to authorize any transfer of structured settlement payment rights in contravention of any law or to imply that any transfer under a transfer agreement entered into prior to the effective date of this act is valid or invalid. F. Compliance with the requirements set forth in Section 3 of this act and fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Section 4 of this act shall be solely the responsibility of the transferee in any transfer of structured settlement payment rights, and neither the structured settlement obligor nor the annuity issuer shall bear any responsibility for, or any liability arising from, noncompliance with such requirements or failure to fulfill such conditions.
