Alternatives To Life Insurance


In honor of Life Insurance Awareness month I wanted to bring you additional options for covering funeral costs outside of Life Insurance.  

So just to be clear I believe that life insurance is important to help cover funeral cost (if the funds will not be accessible when you pass but it is also important to have so your family’s (children, spouse or anyone you financially support) will be able to keep the same quality of life after you pass away.

I mention in a previous post that I budget by paycheck.  I started doing this around 2005, after creating a monthly budget for a while and not feeling like I had a good handle on it (because I was busting my budget).

The 5 Things I Learned At My First Fincon

I just arrived home from my very first Fincon and I am inspired and exhausted at the same time. Fincon is a conference for the money media community.   I have known about Fincon since 2014 but since I had not started my blog or business, I just sat back and watched from the sidelines.  This year I was able to attend and learned so much in 4 days.  Here are 5 of the many things I learned:

Life Insurance Basics: The Principle Types & Their Benefits

Life Insurance Basics: The Principle Types & Their Benefits

Life Insurance Awareness month was in September but I want to bring it up again because I know of at least three people who passed away unexpectedly in the last few weeks.  I know you have seen the Go FundMe Facebook posts asking for assistance with funeral costs.  Every time I see one it bothers me, for many reasons but mostly because we need to be better informed of life insurance options, the benefits and how it can help your family pay for burial expenses and continue their standard of living after you pass away.
