OK, could definitely use some help here! September is Life Insurance Awareness Month, and the upcoming third issue of Insurance Selling magazine will focus on that as a main theme. One component of our coverage is a piece tentatively titled “25 Reasons to Love Life Insurance” – which is loosely based on something People magazine did at Fourth of July when they did a “100 Reasons to Love America.”
While it’s pretty easy to cover the basic/traditional reasons – protect loved ones, pay off mortgage, part of sound financial plan, surprisingly affordable, pays out quickly, tax advantages, living benefits, etc. – what I’m hoping Forum members can contribute are some more specific or unconventional reasons why people should love life insurance. Can be actual (but briefly described) case studies/examples of how coverage helped families; maybe some unusual cases or uses you have come across? Or even your own take on some of the more conventional reasons people love life insurance.
Please share examples you can think of on this thread (Click HERE), and if you would like we can credit you (by real name and city/state) as the source of the “reason” in the article in the September issue. Might even use your image if you email me a hi-res picture. In addition to helping with the magazine piece, hope it will make an interesting thread here on its own as well.
If you haven’t seen the magazine yet, here’s a link to the second (June) issue:
