INSURANCE  AGENT’S REPORT FOR DECEMBER 2007

 

AN ECONOMIC MUST

Do you have seat belt in your car?  Of course you do!  How many do you have?  Aren’t you certain that you have one for every member of the family?  Would you buy an automobile that only provides one  “belt”  - that being for you?

But would you believe that many families I visit are running along with one “belt” of insurance on the father.  Somehow, a common opinion seems to be that the death will strike only the father – not the mother. 

Today, insuring your wife’s life is an economic must, whether she works outside the home and assist in providing part of the family income or a stay at home mom providing services to the family that can be very expensive to replace.  With “wife insurance,” should death occur, you have a fighting chance to retain at least a semblance of a home for your children.

Your future starts tomorrow.  Contact me today.
