Do you recall all the holiday gifts that you have given or have received over the years? Most likely, not. Gift cards, sweaters and devices can only go so far in life and are often easily forgotten. However, if you have some last-minute presents to buy, and are trying to think of something outside the box – we have the perfect idea for you!
Although our gift idea may not be at the top of anyone’s list, the gift of life insurance could be the most beneficial present a person could receive. We assure you, it will not get lost in a pile or returned to the store. This gift, that keeps on giving, will never be forgotten.
A family present
Economic hardships and strict budgets, especially during the holiday season, are easy excuses to delay the purchase of life insurance. While we are starting to see a decline in the number of uninsured families, there are still more than 95 million Americans who aren’t protected by life insurance. The financial commitment does not provide any immediate gratification or any tangible entertainment. The fact of the matter is, the true blessing of life insurance comes when a family remains to be taken care of when a provider passes away. Through life insurance, income is replaced to pay for bills, a family business, a home, a car, children’s education and other unforeseen costs. Alleviating financial stress on the already hard journey of losing a loved one is priceless. Protecting your family’s financial future is a gift that keeps on giving.
Guidance as a gift
If you already have a life insurance policy, then consider starting your children or grandchildren in the right direction financially. The younger in age for a life insurance client, the lower the premium and the longer it can grow. Starting life insurance early also minimizes the risks that come with age. For example, due to injury or illness developed later in life, some people are unable to obtain life insurance.
While gifting life insurance to your kids or grandkids may not have the excited reaction we all love, it will give them a financially sound foundation for them to stand on when they’re ready. In due time, the gift will have them wondering what they would have ever done without you.
