Planning for the unexpected
Life is unpredictable. One day you’re talking to someone about the future, the next day they are gone. It throws your life in to turmoil. Your every day routine is gone. So much stuff you had talked about and planned is now gone. You are starting over on some things. Other things continue but are different.
But, in most cases, life goes on. Tomorrow comes and so does the next day. You have to carry on, but….
There may have been loss of income
There may be expenses associated with that loss (final expenses).
Unpaid bills that you’re responsible for.
Your own well being (counseling?).
There are lots of expenses associated with the passing of a loved one, too many to list.
Many people left behind face significant financial hardships. Some have to liquidate assets to cover debts or other expenses. I have seen this first hand. People having to sell all their assets and home just to cover bills.
When a person leaves your life suddenly, it’s devastating, You don’t want the people you leave behind to face any additional stressors, it’s bad enough already.
Life insurance can really help reduce those stressors.
I went through this. It’s a truly horrible experience. We had a bit of life insurance on her that helped, but there were more expenses than life insurance $.
If you have life insurance now, is it enough?
If you don’t have life insurance you may really want to consider getting some.
