Putting Your Ideas into Action!
Long Term Care Insurance
Long term care is something you may need if
you can no longer perform everyday tasks by yourself. For example,
there may come a time when you need help getting dressed, eating,
or bathing. It also includes the kind of care you would need if
you had a severe cognitive impairment like Alzheimer's disease.
You can receive this care in a variety of settings, including your
home, an assisted living facility, or a nursing home.
Long term care can be covered completely or
in part by long term care insurance. Most plans let you choose the
amount of the coverage you want, as well as how and where you want
to use your benefits. A comprehensive plan includes benefits for
all levels of care, custodial to skilled. In New York, there are
particularly innovative and cost-effective ways to insure against
this financially devastating event.

Disability Insurance
Your ability to earn an income is your No.
1 asset. So why are you more likely to insure other less valuable
assets, like your car and home, than your income? It's easy to under
estimate the chances of becoming disabled. Most people believe it
could never happen to them. They are surprised to learn that the
chances of becoming disabled for more than 90 days are 1 in 4. Being
disabled usually means losing your income - because you're no longer
able to work. But that's where disability income insurance can help.
What Constitutes a Disability?
In its simplest form, a disability is the
inability to perform your job due to a sickness or an injury. Some
disabilities, like a normal pregnancy or a sprained ankle, are for
such a short period of time that it is more expensive to insure
them than to lose the income. Other, longer-term disabilities, like
a heart attack or becoming paralyzed, may keep you from working
for months, years or even the rest of your life. A long-term disability
can have a huge impact on your financial situation because your
income would drop or disappear while your expenses continue or even
increase. The risk of long-term disability is well worth insuring.
Why You Should Consider Your Own Coverage
- Save on Taxes - When you buy your own insurance with after-tax
income, 100% of the benefits are income tax free.
- Cover Your Actual Earnings - Cover a higher percentage of your
income with insurance that covers bonus and/or commission income.
- Choose the Disability Definition - Many employer-sponsored disability
insurance programs use a restrictive definition of disability.
Your policy can be much less restrictive (and therefore, likely
to provide benefits when you need them).
- It Stays With You - When you change jobs, you won't have to
worry if there is a gap before you are eligible for benefits at
the new employer.

Annuities
Annuities are a unique retirement savings
vehicles in that they can cover both sides of the retirement planning
equation - growing your savings and turning your savings into retirement
income that you can't outlive.
In its most basic sense, an annuity is a legal
contract between you and a life insurance company. You agree to
pay the insurance company one or more payments, called premiums.
In return, the company promises to pay you income for a specified
period of time, such as for the rest of your life, beginning now
or at a later date.
There are several different options when it
comes to Annuities. Call or email us
today to schedule your free consultation meeting to determine what
type of annuity best fits your overall financial plan.
Mutual Funds
When deciding to invest in mutual funds, you
should first make sure that you have a clear understanding of your
investment objectives. When you invest in a mutual fund you are
investing in a diversified portfolio of investments that normally
fluctuate in value. To obtain the best results, your investment
should generally be regarded as a long-term investment (i.e., 5
years or more). Stock and bond markets in which mutual funds invest
tend to rise and fall over short periods but generally out perform
other types of investments over the longer term. Some funds such
as money market or short-term bond funds may be viewed as suitable
short-term investments.

fund, simply request a free initial consultation
