Hi, we're going to go over the 5 D's that you dare not dismiss. They can lead to financial disaster if you do. My name is Paul H. Flowers Jr., founder of Life, Health, and Legal Education Partners, a 501, as well as Superior Insurance Advisors. With 20 years experience in this industry, let's hop right in. Number 1: Death. Whether you're prepared for it or not, it can be one of the most devastating things that happens to any person and their families. Number 2, divorce. Whether or not you believe it or not, when you say I do, it might not be true. So sometimes when planning for that separation, it makes sense to ensure that all of your financial house is in order. This definitely includes multiple lines of insurance. Number 3, debt. Debt is a mountain that many people do not like to climb, and sometimes when you're there and it's too large, it can be something that just literally weighs you down. We've got strategies that we'll look at to help you get over and through those in less time than you actually know that it can take. Number 4, disability. Well, unfortunately, these bodies that we have don't always last, and believe it or not, things happen. How did you prepare for that disability, or did you? Last but not least, downsizing. When you're going from a 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom down to a small condo, there are some things that you might want to take into consideration. Do you need as much insurance? Should you be carrying so much of an umbrella when you don't have as much to lose? These 5 things and more are what we'll cover in upcoming episodes, so stay tuned.
