1 Professionals Life and Living Benefit Plan Is your financial future protected?

2 Do you have enough protection?

3 5.3 million Australians don t. Did you know that a recent study found that 5.3 million families with dependent children are underinsured or, worse still, have no insurance at all 1? It s an alarming statistic - especially when you think of the financial impact it can have on a family. But there is something simple you can do. Now, with The Professionals Life and Living Benefit Plan, you can top up your insurance and include a recovery benefit in your portfolio and you can do it easily and conveniently. There s no time-consuming medical, no intrusive health questions and acceptance is guaranteed for members who are permanent residents of Australia aged between 21 and 59. The plan can provide you with up to $1 million in life insurance protection. Plus, it also gives you the option of a living benefit that, in the event of a defined critical illness, pays you a lump sum of 50% of the life insurance cover you select this includes cancer, stroke, heart attack or paralysis. Designed to minimise the financial disruption that serious illness causes, the living benefit can be spent on whatever you need to help you get back on your feet, or make the most of your life. When you consider that 1 in 3 men and 1 in 4 women will be diagnosed with cancer before the age of 75, and that 56.8% of those men and 63.4% of those women will survive for at least 5 years after their diagnosis 2, it s clear just how important the optional living benefit can be. Is this insurance right for you? Please note that the benefits under the policy will not be paid if your death, terminal illness or critical illness results directly or indirectly from an injury, illness, condition or related symptom of which, in the 5 years prior to the policy commencement date, you were aware of or you (or a reasonable person in your position) should have been aware of or for which you had a medical consultation. How much does it cost? Monthly premiums are based on your age and smoker status. The following table provides a few examples. You ll see that a non-smoker aged between 35 and 39 can pay as little as $46.67 a month for $200,000 life insurance benefit plus $100,000 Living benefit.
