๐ฅWhy do Smart People Consider Insurance in December?๐ฅ
We all know that insurance is important because it gives us the peace of mind we all need.
Butโฆ when an advisor tries to sell you insurance, your first response is probably โNopeโฆ I have enough! I donโt need any more insurance!โ
I knowโฆ When somebody tries to sell me something, I have that common reaction too. But have you ever asked yourself, why buy insurance especially in December?

Here are some reasons for you to buy insurance in December this year:

Why not convert some of these bonuses into a policy that gives you and your family peace of mind? It's the best time to plan for 2021.

This protects your loved one from unintended liabilities in the future.

Rather than giving a small lump sum of money, why not invest the money in an annuity that ๐ ๐ข๐ฏ๐๐ฌ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ ๐ ๐๐ง๐๐ซ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐๐ฅ๐จ๐ฐ ๐จ๐ ๐ข๐ง๐๐จ๐ฆ๐?

However, when your life cycle changes and now you finally have somebody you truly care about, you need to spare thoughts for them. Get yourself covered.

โ To sum it up, make sure youโre fully covered. If your advisor ever approaches you this December and ask you for a cup of coffee, donโt reject them first. Spend a few minutes listening to what they have to offer.
๐Every professional advisor in the financial planning industry will know that their clientsโ priorities change dramatically in December due to the planning for 2021. That is why they are ๐๐๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฌ๐ฉ๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐ข๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ก๐๐๐ค๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ข๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎโ๐ซ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐๐ and financially ready to kick start 2021!
๐Remember, the best time to buy insurance is yesterday because you never know what will happen today! Get yourself covered & insurance only gets more expensive as you age.
