Why Fortify
The solutions we provide are designed to help individuals Fortify theirs and their families financial present and future by helping to protect for the unexpected. Our goal is to provide seamless education and support to individuals and planners so they understand the options that are available and to help secure the one that fits best.
The financial pyramid is used in the insurance industry to help visualize how to best make plans to secure a client’s financial future. It shows how insurance helps you prepare for the unexpected: property damage, medical expenses, loss of life, and loss of income due to disability.
Because the financial consequences of a disability can be devastating, many (like us) consider income protection to be the most essential component of a solid financial plan. Removing your income from the foundation can cause your financial plan to come tumbling down. The problem is, most people don’t realize the risk of a disability (or just don’t want to think about it).
A disability or death can be devastating to a family and by offsetting the risk of these occurrences through the purchase of Disability & Life Insurance, individuals can better cope with these unplanned and difficult situations.
