Life insurance could be the most important decision you make for your family. I can remember from personal experience when I was a new father and freshly married and the 09/11 tragedy struck our nation. The first thing that came to my mind was the safety of my wife and children. I could not imagine having to leave them without a father and husband as so many of our fellow countrymen did that day. I can remember holding my one year old in my arms as I looked overhead at air force one flying into strategic air command for the landing of the president. My reaction that awful day was probably on par with many others. How could this happen? What is going on? Is my family safe? After we had learned the details of the tragedy that day, I vowed to make sure my family's financial future was taken care of in the case that I am no longer around. How would my children go to college? Would my wife be able to keep the house? What I thought in the coming weeks is that life is sometimes short and I will not be the guy that leaves his family in a pinch. I started looking at Life insurance and the different options. There are options for permanent insurance (lifetime coverage is guaranteed as long as all premiums are paid to keep the policy inforce) or term insurance (provides coverage for a specified period of time). What worked for me was a combination of both. The term life insurance will provide coverage until the time my kids graduate from college so that expense would be covered, and the permanent life insurance will provide the coverage for the rest of my life. I now have the reassurance that I have helped secure my family's financial well-being if I were to pass. It is the most important insurance decision I have made to date. It's easy to think about the here and now for Home and Auto insurance, but what about when you are gone? Please take the time to contact me so I can help you understand your options. PWS 12121W 10/15
