FINANCIALLY FOCUSED

September 2024 Newsletter

As we move and change from the official summer season after Labor Day into the Fall Season we hope everyone had a great summer!

 

One of the important months for all of us is September, officially “Life Insurance Awareness Month”. Life Insurance has been referred to as the foundation for Your Financial Plans, just as You would not start building a home by constructing the roof first, the foundation is very important as that holds up the walls and the roof for your home. The same is true of Life Insurance, it protects what you have built and provides a solid foundation that protects your financial “home”. There are a lot of resources and information out there, some good and some not so good in regards to Life Insurance but here is a great resource to share to learn more:

This is also a good reminder that if You have Life Insurance You should review it periodically to make sure it is meeting your ideal goals and details such as Your beneficiaries are correct and structured properly.

As always, if you have any questions feel free to reach out to us at any time as we are always happy to help.

Thank you!
