I’ve minced no words over the years about how bad the AARP/New York Life life insurance program is.

I’ve talked about life insurance from one end of life to another, from insurance for children to senior life insurance. The one common denominator is that if someone doesn’t take any action to put life insurance in force there is absolutely no way their beneficiaries will benefit from it. I’ve talked about how children’s life ...read more

I turned 59 the other day and boy am I glad I already have my life insurance in force. I’ve heard that life insurance over 60 really takes a huge jump. But wait, I heard the same thing about over 50 life insurance and that wasn’t exactly true. The absolute truth about that urban legend ...read more

Did you know that you have the right to name a second person to receive bills and notices for your life insurance policy? I have no idea what the number really is, but I am betting the number of death benefits that aren’t paid every year due to a policy lapsing accidentally is significant. This ...read more

I know. It even showed up in my local paper. “Ed Hinerman Says Whole Life Insurance Without Gagging”! Well, the reflex is still there but I have been fighting it while I investigate whether there is a place in my universe for dividend paying whole life insurance that funds “infinite banking”. Is there another over ...read more

The truth is that the senior life insurance market is the most hammered niche in the industry. Why? They think they can push our buttons when we turn 50 and make us believe that our insurance need has ...read more

The life insurance industry, at least the final expense life insurance industry would certainly love for you to believe that over 50 life insurance is a minefield with disaster written all over it.

Does that sound like a desperate person looking for final expense life insurance?

It’s certainly not news that I have a bone to pick with final expense life ...read more
