Memorial Day and Insurance (short post)

On Memorial Day we remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice to secure our liberties. These men and women left their families and loved ones for foreign lands to put themselves in danger. We call them heroes in honor of what they gave up for the rest of us.

With that thought in mind, we too can be heroes to our families and loved one by making a very small sacrifice. The purchase of an insurance policy can also give us security to know that the people we care about can continue to live in their homes and educate their children. For a few dollars, we can take the steps to show that, just like those we memorialize from wars, we too can make a lasting difference. 

Everyday I talk to people who tell me that a parent "took care of things" by having enough coverage, whether life, disability or  long term care, and that forward thinking saved their family. 

As we remember the fallen military personnel who sacrificed for all of us, remember that you can also make a very small sacrifice for your loved ones. 

Stay healthy and have a safe Memorial Day.
