    Life Events & Stages

    Extremely helpful tips when it comes to Insurance from Liberty Mutual

     Liberty Mutual Insurance

    Life Events and Stages

    Preparing For The Expected... And The Unexpected


    Congratulations! This is an exciting time when you and your spouse embark on new adventures together such as buying a home, planning a family or maybe even changing careers. With so much happening at once, sometimes it's hard to know in which direction to turn.
    As you make plans for your future together, ask yourselves this: What would happen if suddenly one of you weren't there? Would that cause financial hardship for the other person? It's a scary thought, and something that many of us don't want to think about.
    There is a simple solution, though - talk to an agent about life insurance. An insurance professional can help you determine what your needs are and suggest the right products for you. If you need added incentive, consider this: Life insurance premiums can be less expensive when people buy it at a younger age.

    Buying A Home


    Buying a home

    A home to call your own...it's a goal for many, and often times a home is the largest single purchase a person will make. A mortgage is a big financial commitment, and a large portion of your paycheck may go toward paying off that obligation. While this may not be of concern to you now, have you considered what would happen to your home if your income disappeared? Would your family be able to stay there?
    Just as you insure valuables like your home and car, you may want to consider insuring your earning power by purchasing life insurance. In the event of your death, life insurance will provide a tax-free death benefit for your beneficiaries, allowing them to replace your income that may have helped pay the mortgage.
    Family makes a house a home. Ensure that your loved ones will enjoy theirs for years to come.

    Managing A Growing Family


    Managing a growing family

    Now that you have children, you have a new perspective on life. Suddenly your kids are the center of your world, and you would do whatever it takes to protect them. That protection could be anything from making sure your little ones get off to school okay, to lending a healing touch when one of them doesn't feel well.
    Just as important as the physical protection, though, is the financial protection. Once you have dependents who rely on you financially, it's important to consider buying life insurance. In the event of your death, life insurance can give your loved ones the funds they need to maintain their lifestyle. It can be used to pay off the mortgage on your family's home, pay monthly bills, provide a college education, or just be there as a safety net.
    According to research, 22 percent of families with dependent children admit they will have immediate trouble meeting everyday living expenses, and another 26 percent can cover expenses for only a few months if a primary wage earner dies.1
    Take steps today to meet the protection needs of your family. Life insurance is one thing you can take care of now to make sure your family is taken care of tomorrow.

    Becoming A Stay At Home Parent


    Becoming a stay-at-home parent

    As a stay at home parent you may not have an ongoing income, but the services you provide your family are priceless. If you put a price tag on your responsibilities, daily childcare and household duties would be very expensive if suddenly your family had to pay someone to provide these services. For this reason, life insurance is as crucial for you as it is for someone bringing home a weekly paycheck. Not convinced? Consider this: The results of a 2010 survey showed that the time mothers spend on the 10 most popular "mom job functions" equates to an annual cash compensation of $117,856 for a stay-at-home mom.1
    Considering life insurance is an important step in ensuring your loved ones could maintain their lifestyle if something were to happen to you.

    Running Your Own Business


    Running your own business

    You're proud of what you've built, and you want to make sure you've put plans in place to protect it.  What would happen to your business if you, your business partner or a key employee died tomorrow?
    Life insurance can step in to fund a buy-sell agreement that would make sure remaining owners can buy out your company interest from your heirs.  It can also cover a key employee, providing the business with the financial ability to replace him or her - or make other plans - in the event of the employee's death.

    The Single Life


    The single life

    If you're single you may not think you need life insurance.  But other people may still depend on you, such as aging parents or other family members.  You may want to be sure there are funds available to pay for your final expenses.  You might also have significant debt you don't want to pass on in the event of your premature death.  Life insurance can also allow you to name your favorite charity or another organization as your beneficiary, providing a way for you to leave a legacy in a way that personally matters to you.

    Life After The Kids Have Moved Out


    Life after the kids have moved out

    If your kids are grown and your mortgage is paid off, you may think your need for life insurance has passed.  But think about it:  If you died today, your partner could outlive you by 10, 20 or 30 years. Here's something to consider: According to U.S. Census Bureau projections, the average life expectancy in 2015 will be 81.4 years for a woman and 76.4 years for a man.1 The life expectancy in 1958 was 68 years for both genders.
    Is your current financial plan adequate?  Or would the person you love be left wondering how to manage financially after you're gone?  Certain life insurance policies can also be tailored so that you have cash values to access if you want to supplement your retirement.

    Planning For Retirement


    Planning for retirement

    Part of planning for retirement is ensuring that you will be able to lead the life you choose after your regular paychecks stop. And that means making sure you have a nest egg that is safe and secure, and there when you need it.
    As you construct your retirement plans, you may want to consider adding an annuity to your blueprint. Annuities are meant to protect you from outliving your income. By purchasing an annuity, you guarantee that you will have a stream of income from that annuity for your retirement years. Offering safety, security and guarantees, an annuity can serve as a reliable supplement to your retirement income without the risk of market fluctuations.

    Supporting Aging Parents


    Supporting aging parents

    Your kids may be out of the nest, but now your parents depend on you for weekly or daily assistance. You're not alone. According to research, 34 million adults (16 percent of the population) provide care to adults who are 50 and over.1
    In addition to providing care to your parents, you may eventually have them living in your home when they can no longer live on their own. Most likely this will be a big transition for everyone involved that will require communication and planning. As part of that planning process, you may want to discuss life insurance. It can provide funds your parents may need for quality health care or even a place to live should something happen to you.

    Estate And Legacy Planning


    Estate and legacy planning

    You've worked hard over your lifetime to achieve financial security, and now your focus is leaving the most you can to the people you care about. Whether you want to leave money to a grandchild for a college education or give a gift to a charity, you want to do the most you can with the money you plan to pass along.
    Certain types of insurance, like single payment whole life, are ideal for wealth transfer because your single payment increases in value as soon as you purchase the policy, resulting in a death benefit that's larger than the original payment.  If you're in your 50s, for example, it could be more than double. And, because it's life insurance, the death benefit is transferred income tax free to your named beneficiary.

    Coverage Required in Most States

    Mandatory motorcycle insurance requirements vary by state. Safeco motorcycle insurance policies are designed not only to satisfy all mandatory requirements but offer even more great coverage options. Talk to yourlocal Safeco agent about the levels and type of motorcycle coverage required where you live.

    Bodily Injury Liability

    Helps pay for bodily injury expenses, like hospital bills and medical care, that you may be held responsible to pay if you cause an accident that injures someone else, other than a guest passenger.

    Guest Passenger Liability

    Similar to bodily injury liability, but specifically covers a guest passenger riding with you on your motorcycle.

    Property Damage Liability

    Helps pay to fix someone else’s vehicle you’re held responsible for damaging in an accident.

    Coverage Required in Some States

    Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage

    Helps pay for expenses associated with injury or death from an accident caused by an uninsured, underinsured, or hit-and-run driver. It also covers you if you are hit as a pedestrian.

    Even More Coverage Options

    Comprehensive

    Helps pay for repairs or to replace your ride if it is stolen, vandalized or damaged in some way other than in a collision. Includes loss or damage from fire, flood, falling objects, wind and collision with an animal.

    Collision

    Helps pay for repairs to your motorcycle for damage caused by an accident.

    Be an active member in one of 24 approved motorcycle riding clubs and association groups and get a discount.

    Ride More

    Pay lower rates for your years of riding experience. The longer you’ve been riding, the lower your motorcycle insurance bill. Discounts are available for one to two years, three years, four years and more than four years of riding experience. Keep riding.

    More Ways to Save

    • Maintain continuous coverage
    • Are a homeowner
    • Pay your bill in full
    • Make a claim-free renewal
    • Have a theft recovery device or anti-lock brakes
    • Have multiple years of riding experience

    How to Lower Your Motorcycle Insurance Costs

    Spending less money is much easier than perfecting your tight turns at high speeds on a gravel road.

    Increase Your Deductible

    You can lower your motorcycle insurance premium by shifting part of the loss payment to yourself. For example, if you had a $500 deductible, you would need to pay the first $500 of a covered loss. A higher deductible will generally lower your premium, but increase the amount you must pay yourself if a loss occurs.

    Pay Your Bill in Full

    Pay your bill off in full when you start or renew a policy instead of paying in monthly installments.
    Talk to your local Safeco agent about other discounts and ways to save that could help reduce how much you pay for your motorcycle insurance.

    Get More Out of Life with Safeco Motorcycle Insurance.

    Personalized Coverage

    Sometimes you need more coverage than your neighbor. That’s why United Fire gives you numerous options to enhance your condo coverage.
    • Loss Assessment: Being a part of a condominium association carries the risk of incurring additional expenses when the association charges all unit owners for certain kinds of loss. Purchasing Loss Assessment coverage from United Fire helps pay for your share of these losses.
    • Additions and Alterations: You may have customized your condo with permanent improvements, such as floor and wall coverings, cabinets, kitchen appliances and light fixtures. Generally, these additions are not covered in your condominium association’s policy. That’s where United Fire Group can help. To help cover these permanent improvements in the event of a loss, you can add our Additions and Alterations coverage to your condo policy for an additional cost.
    • Personal Replacement Cost Coverage: By choosing to add United Fire’s Personal Replacement Cost Coverage to your policy, your covered personal property items will be replaced for what it costs to purchase them new at the time of the claim.
    • Value Plus Endorsement: Though we can never replace the sentimental value of your most precious possessions, we can help make sure you don’t experience a complete loss. Our Value Plus Endorsement provides increased coverage limits for your personal property, such as jewelry, furs and silverware. There’s also extra coverage to help pay for losses associated with credit cards and fees charged by the fire department when responding to a fire call. In addition, Value Plus provides coverage not typically included in a condo policy, such as water back up and sump pump overflow, power interruption, and coverage for loss of food in a freezer or refrigerator caused by a power outage.
    • Personal Injury Coverage: Responsibility for damages awarded to others due to injuries, such as false arrest, libel, slander and invasion of privacy, may be paid for by purchasing United Fire’s Personal Injury Coverage.
    • Scheduled Personal Property Coverage: If the cost of your valuables, such as jewelry, silverware and fine art, exceeds the special limits of your condo owners coverage, you may choose to purchase additional coverage. Once purchased, this personalized coverage option protects almost anything and no deductible applies.
    • Earthquake Coverage: Most basic policies do not cover damage caused by earthquakes. By purchasing United Fire Group’s Earthquake Coverage you will be provided with the additional coverage you may need if an earthquake shakes your home.
