Life changes as we get older: should our insurance be changing too?

We have used insurance coverage to protect us: our lives, our health, our homes, our families, our stuff. From that protection we get something very precious to us: peace of mind.

Let’s talk about getting the right coverage on the right things for the right price.

If you are in the process of making some changes in your life, such as your job or career, or if you’re even thinking along those lines, it is important to go through the process in a way that will be most rewarding and satisfying. Even if you’re not planning those kinds of changes any time soon, you may want to take a look at your life with these questions: What matters to me? What do I really care about? How do I want to make a difference in the time I have here on earth? The answers to these questions will help you get at the “Why” for your life.

Navigating your way through Second-Half finances: here’s help

When you plan a vacation or a reunion, or a birthday or anniversary event, what do you do? You gather information, talk to some experienced people, and make some important decisions. All of this hopefully well before the event itself. That’s how we make sure things turn out the way we’d like them to.
