2 Can Shake Proceeds We are arranging a date to deliver e check of $1000 to St. Michael s School. Terry Kennedy s Insurance Agent s Message Do you have coverage? Did you know at about 50% of households in e United States and Canada have no individually owned life insurance? The statistics for why people have not availed emselves of life insurance coverage are pretty clear, and ey really don t change from survey to survey. First, let s look at e survey results (provided by e Life Insurance Marketing Research Association in 2010). Why people don t buy life insurance: 74% list can t afford e coverage as a major reason ey don t buy. 52% say a major reason is at ey can t decide what to buy. 50% agree it is a good idea but put it off until tomorrow. 43% worry about making e wrong decision. Let s examine each of ese reasons. First, e vast majority lists a major reason as lack of affordability in e coverage, yet coverage is only offered if it meets your budget. It is in no one s best interest to offer you a product at you cannot afford. A good agent (like me and oer agents) goes rough a process wi you of determining what e affordable monly cost is. For e record, a healy non-smoking 40-year-old male can get $500,000 of term coverage wi e Order for just about $1.50 a day. If a client can t decide what to buy, I will conduct a needs analysis, which helps identify goals and objectives while considering your budget, at no cost. We offer term insurance, permanent insurance or a mix of bo. We believe a combination of ese products can solve all personal protection issues. Putting e purchase of life insurance off can be costly, and I recommend against at. You get older and premiums go up, and you run e very real risk at your heal can change. A negative change in your heal can cause your costs to increase, or cause you to be denied coverage all togeer. Delay can be disaster. For ose who worry about making e wrong decision? Well, I can help. You can trust me. I know what to look for and what to recommend. A conversation wi me can help erase your doubt.
