It’s one of those days when a bit of clarification might just go a long ways. I have a couple of clients I am currently working on personal life insurance policies who have mood disorders and came to me looking for the best possible rate in their situation....

I was going to start this post by saying, “If I was asked what a life insurance underwriter’s job duties are”, and then I decided no one would really ask me that so please allow me to inflict my opinion on you. Life insurance underwriters have to...

I, we, Hinerman Group, just completed our reunification move to Colorado. Every once in a while I make bad decisions (moving to NM where it rains), but I am more known for my brilliance (coming back to CO where it snows). With that move I am promising more of the same...

Isn’t it true of everything in our lives if we’re over 50, change is happening and with life insurance the companies are making sure it is “Advantage Company” in their tennis match with customers. Having lost count of the number of life...

We’re crashing in on another new year and you, yes you, still haven’t gotten around to buying life insurance to protect your family. It’s this same old wrestling match that most guys would rather stay engaged in and risk getting pinned than break...

There is a reason most life insurance agents never make it to their 2nd year in the business and it isn’t because they’re stupid or life insurance really doesn’t have the potential to be a well paying lifetime career. The lack of long term success...

Being one of them (the old folks) I carefully admit that I was probably a little easier to underwriter for life insurance 20 or 30 years ago than I am today. I am currently working the partners in a company, both in their 60’s, who made a real common error in...

Things pop up day to day in my business that remind me that I haven’t written about some particular life insurance pitfall in a while. Just as much as any life insurance impaired risk you might present, the inaccurate BS information that doctors put in or allow...
