Relieve that stress and get away from it all for a little camping. Pictured above is what a few thousand people call getting away from it all every year during the Ride the Rockies bicycle tour. A little bike ride through the mountains with 2000 people. What, are they...

You know what really is great about being able to get good rates and place policies in force for those with bipolar disorder? The families are so grateful because of all they’ve been through with the demeaning treatment and declines they have received at the...

With all the work and research we’ve done over the past few years concerning mood disorders and especially bipolar disorder I have run across few resources that would even remotely compare to Julie Fast’s Bipolar Happens website. Julie’s story of her...

I was asked by my office manager this morning if bipolar disorder/manic depressive disorder was more prevalent in people around her age, in her 30’s, than people my age, in my 50’s, because the majority of people who react to our advertising and blogs are...

No, no. I don’t really think I’m special. Family nickname and joke. “Ed’s done so well they named an entire school curriculum after him.” Ha Ha! Today I want to reflect on this, my 1000th post, and the journey and events of the last 2 1/2...

I read a post on Twitter @bpluv today that really kind of drives home one of the points that I’ve been trying to make about the bipolar disorder/life insurance experience. It starts with the oh so true supposition that “Mental illness doesn’t make me...

Most of the life insurance cases I work are shopped to multiple companies just so I can be assured that the insurance quote I am providing really is going to be as good as it gets and ultimately the client gets the most bang for their buck. When I shop I am looking...

We’ve done a lot of work for clients with mild to moderate, usually situational, depression or anxiety disorders. The truth is the more crazed and frenetic our society and lifestyle become, the more people are looking for a little bit of help coping. It’s...

We launched our first attempt at a Google adwords advertising campaign targeted specifically to those with bipolar disorder today. As our success grows in helping this under served, over abused group of people our hope is that we can reach even more with the good...

Some of the life insurance leads I work are faxed advertisements that show a grid of preferred plus prices based on different ages and amounts of insurance. It clearly states at the top of the grid that these are “The lowest rates that exist. Preferred plus term...

Compliance and control! I haven’t beat that drum in a while, but that doesn’t change the fact that those two issues are the major underwriting issues in almost all life insurance applications where health is less than perfect. I have used that soapbox most...

Here in the Rockies we have avalanches and then we have these small chunks of snow that break loose and roll down slopes forming pinwheel looking things. Some of them look kind of like a cinnamon roll. Well, that was a weird way to start to say that our efforts and...

I’ve certainly questioned the IQ of more than one life insurance underwriter over the years. I may have even insinuated that a few didn’t even make into on to the IQ scale. But the truth is there are two types of underwriters working on life insurance...

If it wasn’t such a great success story I would probably just quit talking about it, but we have already been able to help more people with bipolar disorder in the first quarter of this year than we did all last year. The word is getting out. A client who...

It’s just a bad feeling when a life insurance company declines to offer you coverage. They don’t want to accept the mortality risk!! Do they think you’re dying? Is there something your doctor isn’t telling you? Will you ever be able to get life...
