For the next few weeks I am going to pick apart and try to make sense of business life insurance in all of its’ different forms. Just like personal life insurance, business life insurance is meant to take the burden off of a company in the same way that personal...

So, BNP (natriuretic peptide). What the heck is it? In layman’s terms (so I can understand it), BNP is a protein release by the heart that could indicate congestive heart failure. But listen up all of you life insurance underwriters……It could mean a...

It’s what we’re all looking for when we finally get around to the task of acquiring life insurance, a great deal. For each of us that can be defined differently. For many of my clients just finding a company that will approve a life insurance policy is a...

They aren’t hiding in plain sight! They aren’t where you would expect to find them with the super giant on line life insurance agencies like Selectquote or Reliaquote. Selectquote says on their website that, “You’re just a few steps away from...

Has Mr Murphy of Murphy’s Law invaded your business plans that involve a need for life insurance. I’m not pessimist enough to believe that “if things can go wrong, they will” but I know what a mess it can make when you are presented with a need...

I talk often and loudly about how many people, through no fault of their own, end up paying too much for life insurance. That’s the first crime usually inflicted by using the wrong agent who used the wrong company. The second crime is when you, the life...

How’s this for shock value? Life insurance agents get into the business to make money and there are times when how much money they are going to make may, just may, skew their recommendation on what product you should buy. No really! That can happen one of two...

I don’t know what more life insurance companies could want than a level playing field and a chance to compete for their fair share of the business, but no joke, there are some that trip and fall on a level playing field. I just worked on a case that, while not...

About five years ago I was working with the CEO of a mid size company on a succession plan for his business using life insurance. I remember this case well because of two things. First, it was unique in that the owner and CEO wanted to use this life insurance to allow...

With personal life insurance there is very seldom a reason to panic if there is a delay or an unexpected decline that needs to be worked on to overcome. I know it happens anyway (the panic), especially when there has been a decline, but given a little time and the...

I had a situation come up about a month ago, just a few days after being diagnosed bipolar II. It was amazing how quickly that diagnosis snapped a good bit of my teen and adult years into focus and I think in a lot of ways pointed a light at my business success and my...

We’ve discussed BNP and proBNP in this forum before and the life insurance underwriting, or lack of, that goes with a high reading. Much like some companies used to do with the liver function test GGT, the underwriter would immediately assume they client drinks...
