No matter your age or income, nothing is more important than protecting your health. But fortunately now there are things you can do to get traditional health insurance plans that will fit into your budget today.
The commercial featuring that loud, quacking duck has gone a long way to making people think about individual disability coverage as a way to keep bills paid if the family breadwinner 
gets sick or injured over an extended period of time.
It’s true — individual disability insurance is more important than ever, and every working individual should have it.
The key is shopping smart for that coverage. A financial planning professional is a good first stop for advice on that coverage, which should be considered as part of an overall financial plan.
Why is it a good idea to have personal disability coverage, particularly when most employees can buy such coverage at work for a nominal fee? That’s because most employers offer disability coverage that lasts 12 weeks or less and covers less than 60 percent of a worker’s pretax income. That might be workable for a surgery or injury with a relatively quick recovery time on the couch, but a diagnosis for even the most curable cancers can put workers with even the best financial coverage into a devastating financial bind.

It’s important to know that all are actually variations on the two basic kinds of coverage: term insurance and whole-life insurance (also called cash value or permanent). (more…)
For most people, it’s pretty simple deciding whether or not you need life insurance. Figuring out how much you need may be a lot more difficult.
Many people simply guess at a figure that seems reasonable and settle on that. Some use a rule of thumb that says you need six to ten times your annual income. Forbes.com has a simple life insurance calculator lets you enter how much annual income will be needed for a certain period of time after death of the policy holder. (more…)
Your need for life insurance changes with the seasons of life, starting with no need when you’re young, progressing to greater need as you take on greater responsibility. Finally, for most people, life insurance needs begin to diminish as you grow older. (more…)
Buying life insurance is a very important financial decision and can be one of the most confusing. How you choose which policy, how much should you buy, how you understand the more complex forms of insurance are all questions that need answers. Comparison shopping between all the different types of insurance seems impossible. (more…)
