Inadequate Life Insurance Leaves Spouses With Less
September 2006 (Medialink) – Lives change. Growing families often trade up to a bigger house. Someone with a pay raise might think of getting a better car. But, how many with changing circumstances think about the need to trade up to a better life insurance policy?
Turns out… not many.
That means a more difficult life for surviving family members. In fact, the Insurance Information Institute says that nearly half of surviving spouses would experience a 20 to 40% decline in their standard of living if the primary wage earner in the family died.
Life insurance is like money in the bank. And, like a retirement account, the equity can grow. It can be used for almost anything – to pay funeral expenses, debts, and to maintain a certain standard of living. September is National Insurance Month, the time each year to familiarize yourself with your policy and check if you’re adequately covered.

Life insurance is …
Life insurance is not hard at all to get im Life Insurance agent and I would say out of all clients ive helped maybe 5% to 10% werent able to qualify for life insurance. Its rare not to qualify unless you have terrible health say example youve had heart attacks,Cancer or something of that like that other than something like that dont see why you wouldnt qualify.

I’ve met waaaaaay too many people that have babies and don’t have life insurance. They are cheap, irresponsible, inconsiderate, and selfish!
I know several young fathers that have died without insurance and left behind nothing!
Good job!
