 Why Do You Need Insurance?
LIFE INSURANCE CALCULATOR
You want the best for yourself and your family. A college education for your children - a comfortable retirement for you and your spouse - something to pass on to your heirs. You may already have a plan in place to help provide these things. But is your plan complete?
Life insurance is probably something you don't often think about, but no financial plan is complete without it. And if you haven't yet put a plan in place, life insurance is a great place to start.
To help you determine how much life insurance is appropriate for you and your family, we've developed an easy-to-use life insurance calculator. By providing some basic information on your family's resources, debt and expenses, current life insurance coverage and future income needs, the calculator will give you an estimate of the amount of needed life insurance coverage.

| MORTGAGE PROTECTION
The history of the Order shows how the foresight of Father Michael J. McGivney, whose cause for sainthood is being investigated by the Vatican, brought about what has become the world's foremost Catholic fraternal benefit society. The Order has helped families obtain economic security and stability through its life insurance, annuity and long-term care programs, and has contributed time and energy worldwide to service in communities.

| FAMILY INCOME
You have worked hard to bring you family's standard of living up to where it is. You shouldn't be willing to give that up no matter what. They say "you can't take it with you," but earning capacity goes when you do! There is a way to guarantee that they will never have to sacrifice that standard of living, whether you are here or not. Life Insurance.

| EMERGENCY FUNDS
The funace breaks. The car goes on the blink. The roof leaks. Someone in the family becomes ill. Everyday occurrences in households all over the country. What do you do? Life insurance can help. The cash and loan values of a whole life policy are available to you when emergencies happen. Or even to provide cash for some otherevent.

| FINAL EXPENSES
The unfortunate truth is that the last thing you'll do on this earth is create a debt that you won't be around to pay. Final expenses may include burial costs, unpaid bills, and excess hospital bills over health insurance payments. The emotional drain on your family should not be aggravated by concern about money. Not if you can help it. And you can.
|
| RETIREMENT RESOURCES
Thought about retiring lately? When you do, figure out how much money you'll have. Then think about a life insurance plan that will provide more. Retirement benefits such as Canada Pension Plan and Old Age Security are nice, but do you know how much you'll get? Pensions are a plus, but will they be enough? Supplemental income is usually necessary.
