Have We Got A Deal For You!


You can watch MeTV for only a short period of time before you see the commercials for burial insurance, or final expense insurance. "Pennies a Day!", or some other ear-catching line that doesn't tell the complete story. 
*No Exam Life Insurance $100k As Low As $4.75/month

*Guaranteed Burial Insurance $9/month Buys $50K in Coverage‎
*Guaranteed Acceptance Whole Life Insurance from $9.95/month

Of course these are "teaser" rates. Do you realistically believe anyone can apply for coverage and get these premiums? The purpose of these ads is to get a person to call the number given or go the site to get a quote. Without having to watch MeTV, here are the sites:




I encourage everyone who is considering purchasing insurance to do their homework. Compare benefits and premiums. Make the best choice and save money. Also make certain to read the fine print because you don't always get what is advertised.

I don't like guaranteed acceptance life insurance.

Guaranteed Acceptance Life Insurance appeals to seniors who want to make sure when they die there is ample money for their heirs to pay for a funeral, and any outstanding bills, such as medical bills. 

What don't I like? The pricing. Suze Orman agrees.

Before you apply online, work with an independent life and health agent who works with many top-rated carriers. Life Insurance companies have become more liberal in underwriting and you may be approved for coverage even with certain medical conditions. An agent should be able to place you with the best company which works with your unique circumstances. 


There are many carriers which offer whole life products at competitive premiums. All companies offer the same basic features on the products: Level Benefits and Level Premiums.

Don't get stuck with a lemon. Don't just get a deal, get the best deal.

Plan Your Final Wishes

Smart Planning of Your Final Wishes Robert had recently retired and his wife Ruth, still worked part time. They were empty-nesters with several children and grandchildren living nearby. Even with retirement savings and other money put aside for rainy days, they were both concerned with the cost of a funeral. Robert no longer had the group insurance he had with his employer and each of them had a small  whole life insurance  policy which wouldn't be enough if something were to happen to either of them. Another concern was not knowing the first thing about  funeral planning , or  pre-need planning . Fortunately, Robert and Ruth found a site online which helps people  plan their final wishes , what to include with a plan, and how the plan should be used when the need arises. They even found answers to the cost of a funeral and a list of reputable local funeral homes. They spoke with an independent insurance agent who first told them about the...

Term Life Insurance with Living Benefits

Image
Term Life Insurance including Living Benefits Ben and Barbara are a young couple, healthy and in their early thirties with two young children, ages 6 and 3. They both had jobs and between the two of them, they managed to provide a good home and a comfortable lifestyle for themselves and their kids. Like most families, they realized they needed a little more living space and a larger yard to enjoy. Ben and Barbara found that new home in a well established neighborhood which was close to everything. The lender offered them mortgage protection insurance which would pay the mortgage if something happened to either of them. It was pricey and didn't fit their budget. Besides, if they moved or paid off the mortgage, the coverage ended. Solicitations from agents hounded Ben and Barbara and the more they looked, the more confusing term life insurance became. They had many questions but they hated the pressure from salespeople. Then they found a website which allowed them to ...

Get Your Application Approved - Part 2

Image
You Can Ace This! You've completed and submitted an application for life insurance coverage. And now you wait........ Ads for life insurance quote a very low premium for a hefty amount of coverage. The fine print tells the truth...those are "super-preferred" rates, the least risky health class for the insurance company. The reality is only a very small percentage of people qualify as super-preferred. Insurers also classify applicants as preferred, standard or regular, or substandard. The insurer may even "table rate" an applicant meaning even higher premiums for the same coverage. If you have applied for a larger amount of coverage, $500,000 or a $1,000,000 or more. If you have a medical issue or a medical history which you have disclosed in the application, you may be required to complete a medical exam. What is a paramedical exam? Applications can pass through an insurer's underwriting, the process of vetting an application to approve or decline...
