Has Mr Murphy of Murphy’s Law invaded your business plans that involve a need for life insurance. I’m not pessimist enough to believe that “if things can go wrong, they will” but I know what a mess it can make when you are presented with a need...

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...

Who, if they left your company or died without adequate life insurance, would derail your company? Maybe it wouldn’t put you out of business but for at least a while you would experience chaos at a business level. It could be that the reputation of the CEO, with...
