I’m currently working on a life insurance case where the client, a physician, sought and completed treatment 4 years ago for prescription drug abuse. We shopped this last year and got an offer from Banner Life. The case was declined in underwriting because they...

I can hear the whole life insurance guys once again musing about what kind of a nut case would recommend term life insurance during crazy economic times. Well guys, I’m back!! For those over 50 and over 60 life insurance may be the only way to salvage the...

Let’s just call it like it is. In far too many cases those who make the most are also the busiest and the most likely to put off something like a life insurance application. Entirely too much time and energy can be spent and heck, with money in the bank,...

It’s been years since I’ve run head long into an ultra fast CT scan that just simply defies all logic. Ultra fast CT scans are used to stop the heart mid beat so the chambers and arteries can be looked at in detail. It has been touted as the answer to non...

What a summer, huh? I heard on the news the other day that somewhere in Oklahoma had set a new all time record high for any state over a full month. We’re talking hotter than Arizona!! I’m pretty blessed to live at 7000′ in Colorado where yesterday...

The 70% savings lure in life insurance advertising is probably been so used that it is a brand by itself. Never mind the companies the promote it, who wouldn’t want to save 70% over what they are currently paying for a comparable life insurance product. So, the...

When i see how some life insurance underwriters treat clients with generalized anxiety, often offering standard rate or worse approvals, I wonder if they’re living in the same country as the rest of us. USA could easily stand for the United States of Anxiety...

There is a mistaken belief that people that have really great incomes, like professional athletes, don’t really need life insurance. The assumption is you have a large income you probably have it managed so that your family would be taken care of if you died...

Just when you have everything comfortably figured out some scientist or doctor or study throws a curve ball at you. Cholesterol was something we all finally got. We knew that if our cholesterol was 200 or under and our LDL, HDL and triglycerides were in the...

For a lot of people reaching the big FIVE O, is a moment to ponder. “Ok. I’m halfway to 100. Most people I know who are a hundred are dead.” Maybe being over 50 life insurance should start flashing on the radar. Little blips saying “you...

I know that you know that I seem to have a real case of the can’t shut ups when it comes to the New York Life / AARP life insurance program, but AARP is so in the face of our country and especially the elderly among us, well, it’s become kind of personal....

As independent life insurance agents there is a kind of longing for the good old days when US Financial offered non smoking rates to social smokers and when CNA would issue a policy to a smoker at non smoking rates, with the caveat that they had to quit smoking within...

I am left shaking my head occasionally when I hear a client say that my quote is much higher than some other quote they have received. Since I shop virtually every case I quote I am confident when I send out quotes, well, they are as good as it is going to be after...

I have written a lot in the past year about the availability of a very fairly priced AD&D product from a company that covers everything from simple AD&D to war risk for civilian contractors working in Afghanistan. The company that offers the coverage is...

The life insurance industry, at least the final expense life insurance industry would certainly love for you to believe that over 50 life insurance is a minefield with disaster written all over it. Suddenly you must be perceived as a greater life insurance risk as the...
