Insurance Needs

by Jeremiah Worby

What will happen to you and your loved ones if something unexpected occurs?  Do you have contingency plans in place?  Being prepared for the unexpected is something that should be planned for.  Insurance isn’t always for everyone, but if the need arises, having something in place can help alleviate unwanted stress and burden.

Life Insurance

A very unfortunate statistic, but 100% of people eventually die.  Does that mean that you have to buy life insurance?  Well not necessarily.  Everyone’s situation is different.  It can depend on a variety of factors such as age, current and future financial circumstances, possible inheritances, considerations about how much you would like to leave loved ones, and funeral expenses, just to name a few.  


If you do decide that a need for life insurance exists, these are just some of the decisions that need to be considered:

  • Did you want a whole life policy or a term policy?

  • Did you need a joint policy with either first-to-die or last-to-die?

  • What amount of coverage should you get?

  • What monthly premium is reasonable?


Critical Illness Insurance

Critical Illness insurance exists for those who wish to sleep comfortably at night knowing they are covered in case a major medical emergency should ever arise.  Very few critical illness policies are the same.  Some considerations include:

  • Do I only want coverage for only the four major illnesses (life-threatening cancer, stroke, heart attack, coronary artery bypass surgery)?

  • Are there other conditions that I’d like coverage for (diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, etc.)?

  • How much coverage do I need?

  • How long do I need coverage for?


Disability Insurance

If you’re employed at a high injury risk job, this is a serious consideration to take into account.  Disability insurance can provide protection against loss of income should you become disabled.  When disabled, as much as we’d love them to, your bills don’t just stop.
  • Check to see if you already have coverage through your employer so that unnecessary overlapping coverage isn’t purchased

  • Decide on how much coverage you would like to have

  • Calculate what your monthly expenses will be taking everything into account

  • Would you be willing to change jobs if need be?

  • Would you be willing to cut back on your current standard of living?

Credit Ratings

by Jeremiah Worby

We’ve all heard the stories from someone we know (though we may or may not like that person) about having been a victim of some form of identity theft.  Identity theft can drastically affect your credit rating, and your credit rating affects almost everything in your financial world.


Whether you’re looking to apply for a credit card, take out or renew a mortgage, get a car loan, or want to borrow a million dollars from that loan shark down the street, your credit rating will greatly impact the interest rate which you might receive for such loans.



There are two major players in the credit rating world of Canada – those being Equifax and TransUnion.  You can, and we suggest you do, go to both these websites and sign-up for their free service to check your credit scores.



Equifax

Directly from their website, Equifax states:
“We are a global data, analytics, and technology company. We believe knowledge drives progress. Our unique data assets, technology and analytics transform knowledge into insights to power decisions that move people forward.”

Here’s a wonderful and short read [they claim it’s 2 minutes but I think it’s way more like 3 minutes :)] from Equifax about what impacts your credit score.

TransUnion

Directly from their website, TransUnion states:

Our mission is to help people everywhere access the opportunities that lead to a higher quality of life. By helping organizations optimize their risk-based decisions and enabling consumers to understand and manage their personal information, we empower both to take their destinies into their own hands.”

Here’s a true 2 minute read from TransUnion about 5 factors that affect your credit score.
