A query about life insurance yesterday from a 58 year old with no health history, no family history and no current treatment and a great build led to quotes at a preferred plus level. A return email today asked me to quote a worse rate class doubting that someone his...

Do we really want to even throw that question out there? How about we test out a few facts, throw some perspective on it and see how many of us want to move? The US spends more on health care than any other developed country….with worse outcomes! Well OK, but we...

I had a situation come up about a month ago, just a few days after being diagnosed bipolar II. It was amazing how quickly that diagnosis snapped a good bit of my teen and adult years into focus and I think in a lot of ways pointed a light at my business success and my...

Over the years I’ve run into plenty of families who only wished their mom or dad still understood and qualified for life insurance. It would likely be a blessing to the family to have it in force, but there’s a point where the family has to admit they’ve missed that...
