My mother never told me running a small business was easy. In fact it went something more like, “wouldn’t you be better off getting a real job?” I wrote that in 2007, one of the first posts to this forum. I have been self employed since 1978, most of...

It’s an interesting view from here. I’m not sure what the equivalent would be for someone who doesn’t write almost daily for years. Maybe just looking back at pictures of how you’ve changed? I’ve picked out half a dozen blog posts from...

I thought it would be good to revisit some of the original posts on this forum. It’s been over 5 years and somewhere near a million words now and I wanted to see if I’m like a politician and flip flop on issues, or as I found in a few cases, the issues...

In some cases life insurance underwriting just hangs out and doesn’t change much over the years. That has been fairly true of prostate cancer life insurance since I wrote my first post on the subject back in 2007, until the last few months. What follows is an...

I will try my hardest to make the focus of this post life insurance, but first I need to vent. We are living in a country that used to be on a pedestal so high above the rest of the countries of the world that it was almost, well, as if we had been singled out by God...

There have been some dramatic breakthroughs in life insurance underwriting over the past few months, a lot of it having to do with cancer life insurance underwriting. Just as these breakthroughs started there are now more rumors of companies following suit, or...

I am more than pleased with the amount of international life insurance business we’ve been able to generate and place over the last year. It is definitely not for everyone but for those who need what the US has to offer and can afford the travel to apply for and...

While hardly a problem that is restricted to people in the medical fields, simply based on the number of physicians and dentists I have worked with over the past few years, it seems their easy access to the drugs and or ability to write prescriptions is a growing...

It’s not like I’m some grumpy old guy that just thinks young men are stupid. There are a lot of refreshingly intelligent and down to earth young men out there who believe in stepping up to the plate, especially when it’s a plate of their own making....

Being a small business person myself I know that there are plenty of opportunities to bust your budget if you take everyone’s advice, get all the best bells and whistles and make your business 99.99% bombproof. It’s funny to see success draw the vultures...

What day Ed? It’s a strange thought process I go through some days preparing to add to this heap of my opinion called Ed Hinerman On Life Insurance. I started to write this yesterday and got off on a tangent that was so full of myself it triggered my gag reflex....

If I’ve gone a month in the last three years without talking about conversion options and the mean spirited way some life insurance companies have treated it, forgive me. There is nothing I am quite so passionate about as beating the ugly truth completely to...

It occurred to me as I was writing insurance on a civilian contractor working at a forward operating base in Afghanistan a few weeks ago that, that there must be others just like them. There must be other groups of people who could benefit from affordable dangerous...
