Do you know how long it take for your loved ones to experience financial hardship if you passed away? Most Americans would experience financial insecurity in a year or less after losing a primary wage earner (LIMRA, 2022). The tragedy of losing a spouse or parent is tremendous, and the fact that 67,980,000 families would be in a financial crisis just one year after such an event reveals a massive threat to our nation’s well-being. September is Life Insurance Awareness Month, and I will be sharing some stats and information about this financial solution. My goal is simply to provide the information. Your financial decisions belong only to you! #LIAM2022
The short answer: It depends on what you're looking for. Life insurance policies come at many price points depending on your age, gender, health, and the type of insurance. If you're looking for ways to find more affordable starter coverage, consider these options: 1. Take out a life insurance policy while you're young 2. Choose a term life insurance policy rather than permanent life 3. Ask an independent agent to check rates at multiple insurance providers That last option is totally free with no obligations! 50% of people overestimate the cost of term life insurance (Average life insurance rates of 2022, Forbes), and that keeps them from getting the coverage they need. Get the numbers, then decide. #LIAM2022 #LifeInsuranceAwarenessMonth #FinancialSecurity
I LOVE the convenience online shopping has brought to our lives! It seems no industry has been left untouched by the digital transformation, personal insurance included. Online life insurance providers promise fast, convenient service, all from your phone. On those counts, they can deliver. However... What if you have health issues that make it hard to find affordable coverage? Or you need guidance through the underwriting process? Or you are interested in exploring a whole or universal life policy rather than term life? In these instances, you may want to consult a trusted financial professional. I'm happy to be that guiding voice if you need it! #LIAM2022 #PersonalFinance #ProtectWhatMatters
Term insurance is like renting—a temporary solution for a temporary issue with an affordable premium. Most people outlive the term but had the use of the policy along the way. Permanent insurance is like owning. You build equity and the owner has more control. If structured correctly, permanent insurance will result in money being paid to the beneficiaries 100% of the time, due to the inevitable fact that everyone dies. Which one is right for you? That totally depends on your goals! I'd be happy to talk through how each would affect your overall long-term strategy in a phone call. September is Life Insurance Awareness Month, and it's all about sharing information. #LIAM2022 #ProtectWhatMatters #PersonalFinance *Please keep in mind that the primary reason to purchase a life insurance product is the death benefit. Life insurance products contain fees, such as mortality and expense charges (which may increase over time), and may contain restrictions, such as surrender periods.
Life insurance is a great benefit if your employer offers it! However, an employer policy is best utilized with an individual policy to supplement your coverage. You see, employer policies do not always cover your entire life insurance need, and they are not always portable if you were to leave that employer. As you are evaluating how your employer’s life insurance option fits into your overall plan, be sure to ask the following questions: • What is amount of coverage can you get without an exam? • With an exam, what is your max amount of supplemental coverage? • Do you know the portability privileges of the of this life insurance coverage? • Does the policy have inflation protection? • Will they give you more as you get promoted? If you want help evaluating how your benefits at work fit into the rest of your financial strategy, I'm happy to talk through them with you! #LIAM2022 #PersonalFinance
Even if you don’t have dependents, life insurance can play a role in your overall financial plan. First, it can cover funeral expenses or debt payment for your surviving relatives. Second, securing the policy sooner rather than later helps you lock in an affordable rate that you can keep if or when you add to your family. Finally, you can utilize life insurance as a tax-favored wealth accumulation tool that could also have asset protection provisions as well. #FinancialLiteracy #PersonalFinance #LIAM2022 *Financial professionals do not provide tax, mortgage, real estate or legal advice. You should always consult a tax or legal professional for advice regarding your specific tax and/or legal situation.
Don't let your friends or family be part of a statistic. Life insurance conversations are awkward--no one wants to talk about the possibility that they won't be around!--but sharing your experience can make all the difference in helping someone close to you feel confident in their family's future. #LIAM2022
Life Insurance Awareness Month 2022
Life insurance is one of those topics where most people know a little, but often not enough to feel confident.
Whether you are well-covered and confident or know little more than the ads you're hearing on the radio or are adamently opposed to the whole idea, I encourage you to use this month to expand your knowledge of life insurance.
Maybe you'll find out you have exactly the amount of coverage you need! Or maybe you'll fill the gaps in protecting your family that have been keeping you up at night.
Whatever your approach, I'm here to answer questions, provide objective recommendations, and guide you on your path toward financial security. Feel free to reach out!
