8 Excellent Strategies to Prepare for the Inevitable

January 31, 2012



Although we all seem to put off talking about our death, it remains a fact of life that sooner or later it will occur. Death can occur at any time and it is not only associated with old age as many in the younger community seem to believe. For this reason we should all be prepared for when the inevitable finally happens, this includes the young, who are heavy with the responsibilities of earning a living to care for a growing family, as well as the aged who are more conscious of their time with us running out in the not too distant future.

Whether you’re married, living together, engaged to be married, or just starting down the blissful path of romance, every couple in a serious relationship knows that personal finances are just another part of building a happy life together.

Once you’re in a committed relationship and you’re sharing rent, a mortgage or other monthly bills, you need to give some thought, along with the happy realities of love, to protecting yourselves from life’s possible disasters.

Search Engines reveal drive for making money, indifference to savings

Search Engines reveal drive for making money, indifference to savings

In December of 2011 a two part piece appeared on NPR.org which examined the question of why Americans are bad at saving money.  You can find  part I here and part II here.   One of the interesting statistics was that 50% of Americans could not come up with $2000 if they needed it in 30 days.  This startling number represents a problem with savings, but is the issue that Americans are poor savers or is it that American culture does not promote good saving habits?

Health lessons from Michael Pollan’s “In Defense of Food”

January 20, 2012

A few years ago I read a really great book that helped change my perspective on food. It’s called “In Defense of Food,” by Michael Pollan, and it takes a new look at the fundamental assumptions that many Americans make (without even realizing it) about our diets.

According to Pollan’s book, many Americans are suffering from health problems (ranging from high blood pressure to diabetes to heart disease, cancer and stroke) that are caused or made worse by the “Western diet” – full of fat, meat, salt, sugar and processed foods.

Get it while you’re young (life insurance that is)

January 17, 2012

Most feel that they have a pre-destined checklist to complete before their “younger days” are over. I don’t have to divulge into details, but this list oftentimes this involves adventurous activities and slightly risky behavior that would otherwise be taboo in your adult life.

But here’s an item usually never inherently found on a youthful checklist; buying life insurance.

This is is one of the best things to “do while you’re young.” If you’re a young couple just starting out in life, you usually don’t want to spend a lot of time thinking about death and dying. (And that’s perfectly natural and healthy – spending too much time thinking about death can be a sign of depression.)

Outliving Life Insurance, with David Techner

January 17, 2012

After watching this interview, you might want to think twice about whether your family is protected or not.

We recently had the opportunity to speak with funeral director of IRA Kaufman, David Techner. He offers some very personal, insightful, and interesting stories on his life and his experience with the deceased. As it turns out, his experience is far-more rooted in the lives and families of the deceased than the actual deceased.

Check out the video interview below. After watching, you’ll probably want to consider acquiring changes to your life insurance (or getting it if you have no life insurance at all). If that’s the case, reach out to us at MyInsuranceExpert.com – we’ll take care of all your life insurance needs!

Eating out? Dine more wisely…

January 13, 2012

Written by Ben Gran

The weekend’s coming. You’re looking for something to do on the town. Maybe a nice time out with your family, maybe a hot date. Whatever the case, chances are you’ll be eating out.

If you’re trying to improve your personal finances and also live a healthier lifestyle, the best place to start is at the dinner table. The old saying “You are what you eat,” is also true for your personal finances. Saving money and eating healthy are often two sides of the same coin.
