“There are no guarantees in Life”

“There are no guarantees in Life”

Although you have probably heard it said before, “There are no guarantees in Life,” that statement is not entirely accurate. Most people are aware that “Death & Taxes” are two things that you will encounter in your life but here are a few more that many people don’t take the time to consider.
  1. Taxes
  2. Disability
  3. Critical Illness
  4. Death of a loved one
  5. Job change
  6. Retirement
  7. Death
All of the above are major events that can impact your daily life and its trajectory and therefore demands serious thought. You can start this process by asking yourself a few of the following questions.
What do I want to happen if:
  1. I sold my property? Would there be any Capital gains to deal with?
  2. I got injured on the job and could no longer work?
  3. I had a heart attack or suffered a stroke?
  4. I am diagnosed with Cancer?
  5. I lost my spouse in an accident?
  6. I could no longer take care of myself?
  7. I die? Who would look after my wife or kids?
These are all hard questions to ask but they are necessary if we want peace of mind. I know that a lot of you don’t want to think about these things because they are not the most enjoyable conversations to have, but they are important none the less. Nobody wants to experience these things, but the reality is that we will at some time down the road.
It is better to plan ahead and have the coverage you need when these things happen. So the only question now is what are you willing to do now to ensure you and your family have peace of mind?
