Episode Transcript
Scott:
In today’s feature segment, I have a real treat for everyone.
The research I’ve done over the past few years into the world of Long-Term Care Insurance has brought me in touch with some very talented people. And one in particular is a true “specialist” when it comes to long-term care insurance.
As a company, we have not only embraced the need to include long-term care insurance as part of an overall, comprehensive living benefits plan, we’ve actually partnered with Canada’s top long-term care specialist and are pleased to include her in our Top Guns Network.
So, in today’s episode I speak with Jennifer Jacobs about Long-Term Care Insurance. She not only dispels the most common myths surrounding this type of coverage, she does a complete overview of what is good (and what is not-so-good) about the various plans available in the marketplace today.
If you live in Canada and you don’t have this type of coverage and you are above the age of 30, you absolutely need to listen to this entire episode.
So, here’s the call…
Bonus Segment
Cathy:
In today’s Bonus Segment I’m going to provide you with a free tool that will give you peace of mind in knowing that if anything were to happen to you, there is a document that has a record of everything that someone might need to know about you to assist with your personal affairs.
The purpose of this interactive tool is to help you to keep track of your important personal and family documents – everything from insurance policies, bank accounts, investments and mortgages to health records and will and estate information.
So many of us have a “file it and forget it” mentality. Some of us have even been known to stuff bills, receipts and similar important pieces of paper into a filing cabinet, or even a shoebox, until tax time. In a way we should be grateful for this annual clear-out because there isn’t enough storage in the world for all of us if we were to go on storing information like this forever.
But tax time is not the only critical period in our lives. There are many others. A spouse or companion dies. You become separated or divorced. You lose your independence through a physical or mental infirmity. What happens to all your various files and pieces of paper?
Someone else has to step in and sort it all out.
Enter the Virtual Shoebox.
The Canadian Life and Health Insurance Association has put together an interactive document that will allow you to record the details of all of your personal records in one place. This Virtual Shoebox will walk you through the data gathering process to make sure it is complete.
