Thanks for any help you can give.
I would not do it. If the Company goes under you get nothing. I have always been my own advisor. With today's interest rates get a CD you will make more in the long run and if you die your heirs get nothing with this deal. I am happily surprise at how much I am making these days with simple compounding interest.
