I understand that there are quite a few very fine life insurance companies that are domiciled in Canada, but having said that there are some compelling reasons for considering US life insurance companies for personal, and especially for business coverage. Among those...

The obvious answer is of course I would buy the battleship if he had one just because I would be the only person in Silver City, NM to own a battle ship. There’s even a big enough lake a few hours from here to float it in although I’m not sure you could...

No, that’s not a typo. When it comes to business life insurance and insurance for people with high net worth, spending up to hundreds of thousands a year on life insurance is really not that uncommon. And anytime you are buying life insurance what you spend is...

If you would have told me 10 years ago that I would be writing a blog talking about the end of one of the most important features of a term life insurance policy, the ability to convert to a permanent life insurance policy, I would have probably laughed at the idea....

While I don’t imagine that life insurance agents are any worse than the general population, my God what is happening to our country when money has become more important than doing the right thing? There is this presumptuous attitude that if money can’t be...

How One Life Insurance Agent Made Over $250,000!!!!!!! There isn’t an hour that goes by that I don’t receive a phone call or an email that starts out with a statement like that. It’s, of course, some life insurance company’s way of trying to...

In a business that is absolutely brutal to succeed in, just like it is a real piece of work to find the best life insurance company for your situation, it is even harder to find an agent that can not just help you succeed, but treat you with respect along the way....

Are you ready to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Mutual of Omaha’s never ending show Wild Kingdom. I was an obnoxious 10 year old when Marlin Perkins first took over our TV’s and started teaching us how life and health insurance were delicately woven...

OK. So I’m starting from a place of disliking Protective Life with a passion. In my career I have never seen a company that has consistently and persistently screwed their customers more than Protective Life along with all of the other companies it has managed...

There are some trends in the life insurance industry that occasionally make me wonder if we are glimpsing the future of the business, or are we already there? If life insurance companies could figure out how to get as much business without the use of commission paid...

It’s one thing when a lack of customer service results in you not getting your empty coffee cup refreshed, but when a life insurance agent goes south on service and the life insurance company they represent joins them on the beach it can end in disaster. When a...

I wish I had the time to write a blog just on AARP/New York Life and their awful over 50 life insruance products and service. Since helping a couple of beneficiaries collect claims that AARP had told them they weren’t going to pay it’s obvious a person...

The CEO of a Denver based company contacted me today. He was shopping for life insurance and because he was a private pilot with almost no current flight time, as in none for 4 years, he was getting quotes that were through the roof. When you need millions in life...

I had an experience with Direct TV yesterday that left me wondering if there is anyone left in this country that truly cares about their customers. I definitely understood by the end of the four hour ordeal, that, and this is from Chase Carey’s secretary,...

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...
