Myth-Busting – “I don’t need life insurance because…” There are a lot of myths out there about life insurance. Let’s bust a few: ❌ “I’m too young.” ✅ The younger and healthier you are, the more affordable life insurance can be! ❌ “It’s too expensive.” ✅ Many policies cost less than your monthly coffee habit. ❌ “I have it through work.” ✅ Great! But work coverage often isn’t portable — and may not be enough. Let’s make sure your plan fits your life. 💡 Give us a call at 309-664-7770

📚✏️ As the kids head back to school and we celebrate Labor Day, it's a perfect time to reflect on the value of hard work — and how we prepare for the years ahead. 💼🇺🇸 You’ve spent a lifetime working hard, providing for your family, and building a life — but have you taken time to plan for life after work? Just like school prepares kids for the future, smart planning prepares you for retirement. Whether you're nearing retirement or just starting to think about it, it’s never too early (or too late) to learn how to make the most of what you’ve earned. This season, let’s take a moment to honor the work you’ve done — and make sure your retirement savings are working just as hard. 💰 I’d love to help you create a plan that supports your goals and gives you confidence for the road ahead.
