Meet the founders

The people behind
ABNORMAL.

ABNORMAL was founded by Ricky Randolph Carr and Caitlin Roque as a partnership. Both are co-founders and licensed life insurance professionals based in Sacramento, CA, serving families and professionals across all 50 states with virtual consultations available.

Ricky's work is not about selling policies. It is about building a strategy that protects what matters most and creates options for your future. Most people do not think about life insurance until it is too late. The practice was built around the opposite, having the conversation early, when it is a choice rather than a crisis. Caitlin's perspective, shaped by her father's experience as a living-benefits recipient, is the reason that conversation starts with the family, not the product.

The reality

Life doesn't send a warning.

Most families plan for their hopes and hope they never face their fears. The numbers tell a different story about what can happen without a strategy in place.

51%

of Americans carry some form of medical debt, often the result of a single health event draining the plan they thought they had.

6.7M

Americans live with Alzheimer's, a reality that reaches far beyond the one diagnosed and reshapes entire families.

$393K

the average lifetime cost of long-term care. Lasting care demands a plan, not a hope.

The big idea

There are only three risksworth planning for.

Strip away the noise and almost every family plan comes down to the same three what-ifs. Most people protect against one or two, never all three.

DIE TOO SOON

The people who depend on your income are left to replace it, and to carry you emotionally while they rebuild at the worst possible moment.

BECOME ILL

A diagnosis or accident can cut your earning power and drain savings that took decades to build, all while life's bills keep arriving.

LIVE TOO LONG

Outliving your plan is the quietest risk of all. Income, care, and lifestyle needs can stretch far beyond what you expected to fund.

One well-designed policy has the potential to address all three at once. That is the entire point of what we will build together.

One policy. Multiple benefits.

What if one plan could do more than protect?

Traditional life insurance protects your family only after you are gone. The approach I build is different: a single strategy designed to work for you in lifeand for the people you love.

Living Life Defender

A life insurance policy built around living benefits features, designed to provide access to a portion of the death benefit during your lifetime, under qualifying conditions and subject to policy terms.

Protection for the family you would leave behind.
Living benefits available while you are still here.

Protect what matters most

One policy. Multiple benefits.

A system of protection with options.

Every plan I build is anchored on the same principles, each one designed to give you more control over an uncertain future.

LIVING LIFE DEFENDER

Death benefit protection designed for the family you would leave behind.

ACCIDENTAL DEATH BENEFIT

Additional coverage designed for specified accidental causes, subject to policy terms.

INDEX-LINKED GROWTH

Cash value with growth potential tied to an index, without direct market exposure.

INCOME REPLACEMENT

A plan built to help replace the income your family would rely on.

NO-DEBT DESIGN

Protection structured to help your loved ones avoid inheriting your liabilities.

TAX-ADVANTAGED CASH VALUE

A store of value with growth potential, subject to policy terms and tax rules.

Benefits while you're still living

It's not just for after you're gone.

Life has a way of happening while you are busy making other plans. These riders are designed to provide access to a portion of the death benefit during your lifetime, under qualifying conditions and subject to policy terms.

Terminal Illness

Designed to provide access when a qualifying terminal prognosis is received.

Critical Illness

Designed to help when a covered critical health event occurs, subject to policy terms.

Chronic Illness

Designed to provide accelerated access when a chronic illness qualifies under the policy.

Critical Injury

Designed to help when a covered accidental injury qualifies under the policy.

Alzheimer's & Dementia

Designed to help when a qualifying cognitive diagnosis is received, where available.

Living benefits are policy riders and features that may provide access to a portion of the death benefit during the insured's lifetime under qualifying conditions, as defined by the policy. Availability, eligibility, and terms vary by policy, state, and carrier.

Protect today.
Build for tomorrow.

Beyond the death benefit, permanent life insurance can be structured as a wealth-building vehicle, one that grows alongside your goals instead of sitting idle.

Index-linked growth: cash value growth potential tied to an index, without investing directly in it.
0% floor: can prevent a negative interest credit from index performance in a particular indexed account, subject to policy terms, caps, and participation rates.
Tax-deferred: cash value growth potential that helps defer taxes, subject to policy terms and IRS rules.

Indexed strategies do not invest directly in the index. Growth is credited subject to caps, participation rates, spreads, policy charges, and other terms. Not a guaranteed return and not tax advice.

Your private reserve

Build your private reserve.

Imagine a store of value you can build, access, and put to work on your own timeline, one designed with the discipline of protection and the optionality of a personal reserve.

ACCUMULATE

Tax-deferred growth potential helps the reserve compound on its own timeline.

ACCESS

Potential to access funds through policy loans and withdrawals, under policy terms.

DEPLOY

Put your reserve to work, on a purchase, an opportunity, or a business move, on your terms.

REPLENISH

Repay and rebuild, keeping the strategy of protection in place throughout.

Policy loans and withdrawals can reduce the death benefit and cash value, accrue interest, and may have tax consequences if the policy lapses. There is no guarantee of any particular return. All figures and features subject to policy terms.

The strategy

Three risks. One strategy.

A single, well-structured policy designed to address dying too soon, becoming ill, and living too long, then built into a reserve that works for you.

Free, no-obligation consultation.

Ordinary isn't the standard.

The modern approach to financial protection isn't one-size-fits-all. It's a mindset that treats your plan as an evolving strategy rather than a box to tick.

Strategy over product

We start with your goals, then design around them. Not the other way around.

Family-first planning

Every recommendation starts with who and what you are protecting.

Whole-life perspective

We think in decades, not months, planning beyond the immediate need.

Built for the unexpected

Flexibility to adapt when life changes, because it will.

Transparency by default

Clear structure and honest answers, so you always know what you are buying.

Options, not limits

A designed reserve that can move and shift as your life does.

Why we do this

The families we do it for.

Why we do this

There's a real familybehind every plan.

We built ABNORMAL because we have seen, on both sides of the table, what happens when protection is put off, and what becomes possible when it is put in place early. Our goal is not to sell you something. It is to make sure the people who matter most are covered, no matter what tomorrow brings.

"The best time to protect your family is before you need to."
