I don’t think you would find a life insurance underwriter that would argue that the mortality risk for police life insurance or firefighter life insurance is higher than the average person on the street. Something about carrying guns and having to use them,...

Probably very close to 100% of the time a person can go about obtaining life insurance with the traditional application, exam and underwriting period. But there are exceptions. The truth is I don’t recommend that anyone that needs life insurance and...

Among the seemingly unending insults that our men and women in uniform, along with low pay, terrible hours and risk that is above any other job, is the fact that they can’t buy personal life insurance if they are headed into harms way from virtually all life...

I had a call today from a wife whose husband has a great high paying job as a translator for the military in Afghanistan. He’s a civilian, but works translating for trainers working with Afghan police forces and also goes on patrol with marines as a translator....

It’s been a long time since most insurance made any kind of fuss over being treated for cholesterol. As long as it was well controlled you could count on best rate class approvals. Now companies have jumped on the cholesterol ratio band wagon and are allowing...

I’ve been talking quite a bit about US life insurance for foreign nationals lately. Without fail when I start working in a new niche and put it out there on this blog, it gets misinterpreted by a few. I had a call this morning from a woman in Florida who wanted...

I have, over the years, made it quite clear that there are distinct advantages to buying life insurance when you are young and healthy. It’s not that over 50 life insurance suddenly becomes horribly difficult to obtain. for most of us it is just more expensive...

With the ability I discussed yesterday to write foreign nationals through US life insurance companies, there is now an opportunity to consolidate and save money in international business partnerships that should have business buy/sell agreements. I am currently...

In a recent post I shared a bit of a life insurance home run when I was able to get a great offer on a Jamaican citizen with a prostate cancer history. I have since had meetings with one of the major life insurance carriers just to see how much latitude they will...

When I think of what I would want from the American Diabetes Association as a person with diabetes, I’m left wondering if they are anywhere near the advocacy group they claim they are. I go to their website and the first and most prevalent topic I find is how to...

Allow me one more time to bemoan the good old days when US Financial Life Insurance was still roaming the earth. They doled out good news in life insurance underwriting in their short life span than any other company around. It was called clinical underwriting. Just...

Since we have been able to nail down some very affordable rates for accidental death and dismemberment policies for civilian workers in war zones or really anywhere in the world, things have been hopping. Whether you are going to Kabul for a week or Somalia for a year...

Here we go again with the economy and all of our investments. Just as I did a few years ago I need to dust off a bit useful suggestion and reach out again. Investment counselors are trained to say that the market is cyclical and that you shouldn’t freak out in...

I’ve talked before about Pan American Life Insurance and the fact that they will underwrite foreign nationals, mostly from Central and South America and the Caribbean. The only caveat is that they have to travel to Florida to complete the application and exam....

This is just a spin on a talk I have with my granddaughter at least once a week. We have become a disconnected world where people no longer see the logic in a conversation unless it is done electronically, and no longer see the need to enjoy the outdoors because they...
