As a weather nerd, I wanted to drop some awesome resources below for this afternoon/evening’s anticipated event.

Below is an example of Ryan Hall Yall livestream where they cover major severe weather events live as it is happening and comparing radar to a chasers POV. (Fun fact, the guy on the right lives in Bloomington, IL)

Talk with your family, friends, co-workers on what YOUR plan is when a tornado warning issued. Always wear shoes, have a charged phone, & bring water to shelter.

If you have questions send me a message.

Stay safe!!

Like lots of decisions in life, you have options to consider. The same is true when choosing the right life insurance. So, if you don’t know where to start, we can help!

Here are some factors to consider when choosing between the different types of life insurance:
🟩 Length of coverage: Do you want a lifetime policy (permanent) or one that lasts for a set number of years (term)?

🟩 Cost of premiums: Are you looking for a low monthly payment (term) or can you swing a bit more (permanent)?

🟩 Option for cash value: Do you want your life insurance policy to build cash value over time (permanent)?

Need a little more help understanding the difference between term & permanent life insurance? Think of them this way:
🟩 Term life insurance is like renting: you’re covered for a set time and have the option to renew.
🟩 Permanent life insurance is like owning a home: as long as you pay your mortgage, it’s yours, and you can build equity over time

Let’s chat to discuss more about the different types of life insurance.
