Life insurance… as affordable as a cup of coffee.

Some people think of life insurance as something they’ll need to start thinking about as they approach retirement. The truth is—if someone you love will suffer financially when you die, you need life insurance to be included as part of your overall wealth preservation strategy.

The cash provided by your policy at death replaces your income and can help your family meet important financial needs like the cost of a funeral, paying off a mortgage, funding a child’s education or daily living expenses.

It’s much more than just a death benefit

While many people think of life insurance primarily as a tool to protect their loved ones, it can be used for much, much more.

For individuals, adequate insurance can:

• Supplement a retirement income
• Enhance or equalize an estate
• Act as a tax-advantaged investment solution

For business owners, it can:

• Provide a tax-shelter for savings
• Become a source of retirement income
• Help alleviate debt such as a line of credit
