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...

I’ve been a part of the past and the present in the life insurance business. In the past you might get a card in the mail asking if you wanted a life or health insurance agent to come by and discuss the products with you face to face, across the dinner table. In...

Oh, for the fortunate few who find the right doctor who hits on the right medication for their mood disorder the first time, making life insurance a simple process. One day it presents as an annoyance and the next as less than that. But more common is the medication...

I watched a Bear Bryll show recently. Yes, I’m a fan because I truly don’t know where my wife might choose to get rid of me and I might have some Bear nugget that will prevent my life insurance being used before it’s time. Anyway, many of you may...

Yet another announcement yesterday from a top of the line life insurance company. No names but it rhymes with Lincoln. I’ve warned, screamed and hollered over the years that assumed interest rates aren’t just assumed, but simply unsustainable so I want you...

In spite of the best guidance and advice there are times when life insurance just doesn’t get the job done. I know I’ve probably said it a few thousand times, that some life insurance is better than nothing, but in the absence of a well thought out plan...

How do you know if someone really cares about what they do? If they don’t stop putting the information out there, never stop trying to reach just one more person, because for my clients it’s help that is on the way. I’ve been writing in this forum...

I had a long talk with myself, a luxury of being bipolar, about death and the protection that a well thought out life insurance program can give loved ones or business partners. But then I took a step back and looked at it from the perspective of what if a person...

I’m working with husband and wife clients currently that plans on visiting Ukraine in the next few months, albeit Western Ukraine where the lack of action is the norm. So how does life insurance view this? It may not be a once in a life time visit, but it is...

I had a life insurance case some years ago where I was able to help a client replace a Mass Mutual whole life policy that was on the cusp of imploding. What I mean by that is that to the untrained eye, the client’s, the policy seemed to be doing just fine. It...

I’m considering Lasik surgery and as with all things medical in the US I was kind of ticked off when I saw the prices and then, how unpatriotic of me, compared them to a vacation to Costa Rica that happened to include the same medical procedure at a state of the...

OK, let’s be real. This is not the most expensive thing you’ve ever bought. Cars and houses lead that category, but customer service after the sale for cars and real estate is distinctly lacking. It’s certainly not the most often used. Your...
