Now we are into some exciting stuff. We have blown past the cover and are now truly into the guts, the purported fine print, of my policy. I won’t hit on every detail of the next 4 pages. I figure if you can follow my ramblings, a little contract language should...

Over the next three posts I will be opening up an actual in force term life insurance policy in an effort to do away with the “fine print” myth that I mentioned in a previous post, and also to generally educate you about the guts of a policy. There are no...

I’m sure that will get the attention of VUL agents, and VUL policy owners. And it should. The variable universal life policy, for my money, is nothing better than a legal misrepresentation. How many times have I talked about the problem with agents selling and...

Look out for the fine print! Make sure you check the fine print in your contract! There is probably nothing about a contract, whether it is a lease, a financing contract, or a life insurance policy, that worries people more than the fine print. Thanks to insurance...

I mentioned in a post the other day that one of my shortcomings is I have a very generalized philosophy that if a little bit of something is good for me, a lot of it should be great for me. If, whatever it is, can be used in monstrous quantities, who’s to say I...

We’ve all heard some version of the story. A life insurance policy with an exclusion for anyone that dies if they are hit by a bus while wearing a green shirt on a Wednesday during August. Actually if the price was good, I would take that one. Don’t...

Cholesterol, as I’ve mentioned before, is one of the two leading causes of surprise insurance quote changes. The other is not really knowing what your weight is. A good guess only lasts until the examiner pulls out the scale. But, are insurance companies...

I have been more than just a little critical of doctors who keep poor records, don’t tell their patients all they deserve to know, and don’t educate their patients about their medical situation. I need to be fair, or at least I’m feeling that need...
