    3 Steps For A More Enjoyable and Affordable Holiday Season!

    November 28, 2022 /

    We have the holidays upon us, so I thought this would be the perfect to talk about holiday spending, planning and sanity. I love to think of the last quarter of the year as a time of celebration and spending extra time with the ones that I love.  But it has become such a stressful time of year for American’s. Why? Maybe it is because of the amount of money we are spending to celebrate. From October to New Year’s American’s spend $1.5 trillion, yes, I said trillion dollars on four holidays. That averages out to about $12,000 per household. Wowzer!!! That is a lot of money for four days…

    Why Moms Need Life Insurance

    July 12, 2024 /

    Why Moms Need Life Insurance with Living Benefits As a mom, you’re the cornerstone of your family’s well-being, providing love, care, and stability. While life insurance is often seen as a safety net for families after a loss, incorporating living benefits into your policy can offer invaluable support while you’re still alive. Many times families get life insurance on the main bread winner, but with the new type of life insurance that offers living benefit riders, families can access the death benefit in the event of an illness, sickness or injury. Thus saving monies earmarked for retirement! And unfortunately, we do not have a crystal ball that will let us…

    February 17, 2024 /

In this blog post, we’ll delve into how life insurance is, in essence, love insurance, offering peace of mind and security for our family’s future. Life insurance is not just about finances—it’s about love, care, and protection. It’s a way to ensure that your family is provided for, no matter what the future may hold.
