As much as I run across this, it’s sad to know that there are probably as many inaccurate life insurance quotes given each day as there are accurate life insurance quotes. The reason is that most life insurance agents don’t know how the underwriting works...

I just got my monthly reminder from AARP that I have not yet purchased that life insurance through the AARP Life insurance program that I inquired about 5 years ago, and I haven’t talked about senior life insurance or final expense life insurance for a while so...

Heck no! That would lower them to the level of, well, most of corporate America. Before I throw too big a noose here let me say that there are some life insurance companies that are absolutely oozing integrity. If they ever do something wrong they do whatever it takes...

A colleague and I were bemoaning some of stranger than fiction nonsense that life insurance companies come up with. They always tout these things as the newest innovation to speed up underwriting, the best product idea since sliced bread, or they just leave it out...

If life and life insurance was all simple there wouldn’t be any bumps in the road. We would all have the coverage we need when we need it and Dorothy would be singing Somewhere Over The Rainbow in the background. Truth is that most of the time with life...

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...
