So after a good 40 some odd years of working my butt off, I’ve finally come to the point where I can gladly look forward to my retirement. To be honest, many people call it the golden years but I’m still trying to figure out what’s so golden about it. All I’ve known is work and even when I’ve had a week or two to sit and home and relax, I start to go stir crazy.The next few years should be a learning experience at the very least.
But with that being said, I was taught as a kid entering college a few very particular lessons that I still haven’t forgotten to this day.Financial well-being and security was the most important lesson of them all.Till now I have been aimed at building my nest egg lage enough to keep me going until retirement. Now that those days are upon me, though, I need to shift focus to other things.
I no longer have a 401K to put into but rather I’ll be pulling from which will be an odd experience. I took that as my cue, though, to set myself and my family up for my own well being and theirs. I hate to say it as it sounds a little creepy to me but the reality is that we all pass on when it’s our time and I wanted to make sure that my family wasn’t stuck with my financial burdens when that day comes.Dealing with the extras that are added on was the hard and unexpected thing about my parents passing, funeral expense, medical bills debts they had, and even legal fees.
At that moment it was the thing I did not want to deal with, the last thing I wanted to be reminded of, so I did the research on keeping my family clear of the mess when I pass. For that, I’ve found the one simple solution and it’s known as final expense insurance. Final expense insurance is truly what I’ve been looking for. It covers any expense that I may incur between now and then and, if they stick around after I do, they pick up the tab.I feel great knowing that my family will have less stress.
