Did you know, in a recent poll, 50% of Canadians (Insurance Bureau of Canada) responded that they want to better understand insurance?
Why understand insurance? Through understanding how insurance
works, and how insurance can benefit your family, you will be better able to
plan for your families future. We often get caught up with balancing our pay
with our bills, that we neglect one of our biggest responsibilities in
financial planning – building our safety net. Insurance provides us with that
pillow of comfort, which will allow us with breathing and resting room when we
need it.
Can I afford insurance? Many people think that insurance is
too expensive, and that they will not need it. But the truth is, you need insurance.
Many Canadians are not prepared for a financial crisis. In fact, the average
Canadian owes $27,131! Holding such heavy debt loads may make it much more
difficult to obtain a loan or borrow money in the event of an emergency. How
will you pay for an emergency if you do not have insurance and cannot get a
loan?
What should I ask
my insurance agent? – Speak to an insurance agent to help see
what options are available to you. Some questions to ask: What will my policy
cover? Should I get a family plan or individual plan? Who will be responsible for
my finances in a crisis? How can I keep my premium down?
This month, make
it your priority to educate yourself about ways to protect your family.
