| Your Most Valuable Asset Is Income | |||
| (You may wish to print this and work with it offline.) If you are like most people, everything you have or hope to have for yourself and your family requires that you continue to earn an income. Income is the foundation that supports your expenses, your lifestyle and your future plans. If income is interrupted because of an accident or sickness, it may be difficult or impossible to provide basic family needs. Short range commitments and long-term plans may have to be delayed or even cancelled...And additional expenses are incurred because you have become an income consumer instead of an income producer. Unfortunately the chance of a disabling accident or sickness interrupting your ability to continue earning an income is a distinct possibility. Consider the chance of disability. Out of 1,000 people, the number who may be disabled for at least 90 days before age 65 is: |

Who Would Think About Being Without Homeowner's Or Car Insurance? |

How much is your home worth? |
$___________________________ | |
Amount you pay to protect your home |
$___________________________ | |
How much is(are) your car(s) worth? |
$___________________________ | |
Amount you pay to protect your car(s) |
$___________________________ | |
How much is your earning ability worth? |
$___________________________ | |
Amount you pay to protect your income |

Statistically Speaking, Is Your Insurance Planning Backward? As you can see, you spend a lot of money each year protecting the assets you worked so hard to obtain. But have you been overlooking protection for the asset that allows you to possess all of the rest? Your income! |
