Are the things you love really safe?

Protection is often overlooked for reasons such as it’s too expensive, I cannot afford it or it will never happen to me!

Well, ladies and gentleman, it could happen to you!!! In this world of increasing everything! Loss of jobs, critical illness and death have unfortunately become a lot more common than ever before. I remember growing up and hardly ever hearing of funerals and

particularly of a young person.

Yet, for the last 10 years or so, funerals and young people dying are becoming more and more of a weekly reality. And don’t get me started on redundancies, as you may know my first book, Your Journey to Financial Freedom, was written off the back of a season where my husband and I both lost our jobs and had 4 months of no income! Did we think it would ever happen to us? No. Did we have income protection? No! Why? Because we didn’t think it would happen to us and we didn’t think we could afford it!

So, I repeat, ladies and gentlemen, it could happen to you!

Here are some protection types that you should research on and decide which work best for you:

1. Income Protection

2. Critical illness

3. Disability

4. Life cover

5. Funeral policy

This week, have a look at what you have or don’t have and see how you can better protect yourself and your loved ones.
