It’s been another one of those weeks where people seem to be out to overthrow logic with, well, illogical thinking. It was about a tie between the insurance companies and those considering buying life insurance. They both seem to have a common flaw in the way...

In a post a few days ago I talked about the fact that women in business have several reasons to consider life insurance. On a site called Women’s Initiative , they presented a list from an article in the Birmingham Business Journal, of statistics about women in...

I mentioned in a post the other day that one of my shortcomings is I have a very generalized philosophy that if a little bit of something is good for me, a lot of it should be great for me. If, whatever it is, can be used in monstrous quantities, who’s to say I...

We’ve all heard some version of the story. A life insurance policy with an exclusion for anyone that dies if they are hit by a bus while wearing a green shirt on a Wednesday during August. Actually if the price was good, I would take that one. Don’t...

Cholesterol, as I’ve mentioned before, is one of the two leading causes of surprise insurance quote changes. The other is not really knowing what your weight is. A good guess only lasts until the examiner pulls out the scale. But, are insurance companies...

I have been more than just a little critical of doctors who keep poor records, don’t tell their patients all they deserve to know, and don’t educate their patients about their medical situation. I need to be fair, or at least I’m feeling that need...

Where isn’t if offered? Whether you are buying a new entertainment center, a car or a house, if financing is involved the question will always pop up. “Would you like to add credit life insurance (mortgage life insurance)?” Mortgage life insurance is...

A little disclaimer here. Per my duty to my country and the Homeland Security folks, I am not looking for life insurance business from people that want to launder money. Having dutifully taken my required anti-money laundering course through LIMRA, I stand ready to...

I’m seeing this headline in the New York Times that is talking about a “40 fold” increase in the diagnosis of children with bipolar disorder in the period between 1994 and 2003. We’re not talking about a 40% increase. The article is saying that...

As the Fat March participants near the end of their 570 mile quest for weight loss, pounds continue to disappear and once again we will analyze the weight loss in the context of what impact it would have on life insurance rates. A couple of notes on participants that...

The carefree life of the young and single! Been there and done that, and I don’t believe I was the odd person out when I failed to plan for the future. My assumption was that if things changed I would deal with it as it came up. That included any thoughts about...

Whether as an executive or CEO of a large business, or as owner of one of the small businesses that are the backbone of this country, women are increasingly in charge of companies and increasingly needing to consider life insurance as a way to protect that for their...

Of all the different scenarios that women face when it comes to life insurance, perhaps that of the single mother is the trickiest. There is an obvious need. What single parent would not have some fear for their children’s future, knowing that minus them and...

Yes, I know that there are stay at home dads also, but this run of posts is about women and life insurance. Honestly, the title of stay at home mom is a bit of a misnomer. It should be more like “stay at home, do more jobs than than is humanly possible, while...
