Purchasing insurance – either life insurance or disability insurance – from a traditional insurance broker might be risky.
You see, more often than not when the traditional life insurance broker pitches their policies the only factor they’ll take into account is your current employment earnings. “So”, Mr. or Mrs. Customer, “based on the fact that you earn X amount of income annually you should have Y amount of insurance coverage.”
While your income has to be one factor in deciding on how much insurance coverage you might need, very often is it shouldn’t be the SOLE factor. Other factors might include investment portfolio income, business income, child support income, and alimony, just to name a few . Your insurance needs should be derived from your TOTAL financial reality, not just your employment income. So where can you turn to for this evaluation?
For a fact a CFP can be in a position to do this comprehensive financial analysis and lay out for you about recommended levels of insurance coverages. But with a fee-basis financial advisor, this might be overkill and, cost-wise, impractical for many individuals.
So where can you find this kind of comprehensive evaluation?
One place many people perhaps may not have thought about is a CPA. It’s true that most people think of their CPA in light of taxes but that person is in a unique position to know and understand the breadth and depth of your individual financial situation.
And more and more CPA practices are realizing the benefit they can provide their clients by offering insurance products, that being able to offer guidance on the specific products and amounts of coverage that are based on the client’s actual need and not just based the agent’s need to make a sale.
We invite you to call us at the phone on your screen if you would like an insurance review based on your total financial picture. Even if you have used another CPA or tax preparation service we can usually give you an accurate recommendation from reviewing your past tax returns.
So give us a call right now and let’s look at your insurance coverages – what you have now and what, if anything, you might need to add to your insurance portfolio.
