Insurance Planning

The Importance of Insurance

Insurance is an often overlooked, but integral part of one’s financial security and estate plan. It is essential that your insurance solution fits your current and future needs. Each person’s insurance needs are going to differ depending on financial resources, current age, current health, employer’s benefits package, risk tolerance, purpose (i.e., income replacement or estate enhancement), etc.

Things to Think About When Considering Insurance

  1. If I was out of work for an extended period of time, would I still be able to make my mortgage payment? (Disability Insurance)

  2. If my spouse unexpectedly died, would I still be able to take care of the household expenses or our children’s education? (Life Insurance)

  3. If my spouse or I was confined to a nursing home, would we or I have enough assets to take care of the daily care expenses without jeopardizing the rest of the family? (Long Term Care Insurance)

  4. If I suffered a serious accident, do I have enough money saved to pay for the medical expenses? (Health Insurance)
