If you’ve ever thought that you may not have enough life insurance, you’re not alone. According to the 2025 Insurance Barometer Study Report, 25 million Americans feel that they are underinsured, while 74 million Americans don’t have any life insurance at all.

So, what stops us from getting the coverage we know we need? Cost, or more accurately, perceived cost. Historically, nearly three-quarters of Americans overestimate the cost of a basic term life insurance policy. It’s worth noting that respondents, 35 and under, who said they were healthy overestimated the price of life insurance 7-10x the actual cost.

The truth is the right life insurance for your needs might be more affordable than you think. Learn more about life insurance and what options are available to you at countryfinancial.com/life.

Life insurance is a vital part of protecting your financial future and it will never be more affordable than it is today.

So, how affordable is life insurance, really?
The truth is, it depends on many factors, like age, health, lifestyle, coverage amount, etc. The good news is that even though the factors influencing your rate may feel extensive, getting life insurance is easier than ever. Life insurance companies use advanced underwriting methods to make the process easy for you.

How can I lower my life insurance cost?
There are a variety of life insurance options that can fit your needs and budget. But if you want to try to lower your rate, these steps may help:
✅ Purchase a policy at the youngest age possible. Parents may consider purchasing a policy for children as their premiums are typically much lower than an adult’s.
✅ Live a healthy lifestyle. Individuals who live healthy lifestyles generally have lower premiums than those who don’t, as they tend to live longer and have a better quality of life.
✅ Review your insurance options. Term life insurance is typically less expensive than whole life insurance, since you are only paying for it for a certain amount of time.
--
If you don’t have life insurance or haven’t reviewed your policy in a while, meet with me to discuss what life insurance is best for you right now and how much you can expect to pay for it. You might be surprised to learn that it’s more affordable than you first thought.

Every small business has its own unique personality, which is why you need custom insurance to protect all you have worked to achieve. Do you have the right protection for yours? Here’s what you should ask yourself.

• When was the last time you reviewed your policy with your current insurance carrier?
• If your business was destroyed, would your current insurance be enough to replace all your property, including your inventory?
• Will your current liability limits protect your assets in a lawsuit?
• How are your customers protected against credit card fraud?
• Do you have coverage that protects your customers' property when it's in your care?
• Do your subcontractors have certificates of insurance listing you as an additional insured?
• When was the last time you took a tool and materials inventory? Do you have proper coverage for those items?
• Do you need to protect your business for electronic data breaches?

We handle insurance and financial services for over 45,000 small businesses, and we’ve filled plenty of coverage gaps that help owners get back to doing what they do best – running their business.

Planning some fun at home this summer? Make sure your backyard is safe for all your favorite activities by using this summer safety checklist.

Pool safety
• Never leave children unattended
• Kids should never be alone in or near a pool (even if they know how to swim)
• Sign your kids up for swimming lessons

Learn emergency skills
• Young children should learn when to get help. Older children and adults should learn CPR and first aid
• Keep a first-aid kit, ring buoys and reaching poles nearby. Easy access to these items could be lifesaving

Install a safety fence
• Make sure your pool safety fence covers all pool sides and has self-closing gates. Also, install locks and alarms on doors with pool access.
• Create and post safety rules and enforce them.

Trampoline safety
• Add safety features
• Make sure your trampoline has padding and netting. An enclosed trampoline can help prevent falls
• Maintain your trampoline
• Inspect your trampoline regularly for missing pads, tears, exposed springs and other issues that could cause injury
• Enforce safety rules: Only one jumper at a time to reduce risk of injury

Playground safety
• Inspect your playground equipment regularly
• Create a safe landing
• Teach playground rules
• Supervise young children at play

Review your home liability insurance limits

Even if you follow all these tips, accidents happen. Keep your liability insurance coverage updated (and consider adding an umbrella liability policy). If you add a pool, trampoline or playground to your yard, meet with your insurance agent to see if you need to increase your home liability coverage. Stay safe and have fun this summer!

Planning a vacation or is a big trip just around the corner? Before you hit the road, here are six simple tips to help keep your home and belongings secure while you’re gone.
✅ Stash your stuff in a safe - Before you leave, place your valuables in a locked safe or safe deposit box. If those aren’t options for you, make sure valuables aren’t in plain sight or in an obvious place.
✅ Hire a sitter - If you have a pet, you can either hire a pet-sitter or drop Fido off at the local doggie daycare. For pet-free homes, consider hiring a house sitter to help water plants and check in on your home every couple of days.
✅ Stop your mail - A tell-tale sign no one’s home is when a mailbox is overflowing and packages are stacked on the porch. Before you leave town, swing by your local post office or fill out their online form to put a hold on your mail.
✅ Smart home technology - Burglars aren’t the only thing to worry about while you’re away. Installing smart home technology can help you keep an eye on your home from afar. Many companies offer a variety of smart home technology like smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, garage sensors and water leak detection – so if water is detected in your basement or a smoke alarm is going off, your smart phone is alerted immediately.
✅ Keep your landscaping tidy - If you’re going on an extended trip, hire a landscaping company to cut your grass or shovel your driveway. Anything you can do to keep your property looking fresh can deter thieves from breaking in.
✅ Be careful on social media - This is nothing new, but something that’s definitely still happening. If you post you’re on vacation, online predators know your house is empty and waiting for them.
