Have you ever found yourself procrastinating about doing certain tasks? It’s normal to put off some tasks – especially if they seem like they’re not on a pressing timetable. It’s what we all do to some extent or another.
But if you’re a younger physician, there’s one thing you may not want to put off – giving your family the security and protection of life insurance.
Protecting Your Family Should Be a Priority
One reason younger physicians may procrastinate about life insurance is because life right now can be hectic.
Marriage, starting a family, getting established in the medical community – all these are time-consuming. So it’s easy to think you’ll get to it eventually – when your salary grows or after you get your student loans under control.
Another reason you may postpone getting life insurance is the concern that it’s too expensive.
Get Coverage You Can Afford
Younger physicians are often told they need a lot of coverage – because of their high earning potential. The thinking is that down the road your income will grow – along with your family’s living expenses. So younger physicians may be encouraged to purchase a larger policy – with a higher amount of coverage – to account for the financial needs of their family in the future.
The problem is that a plan with more coverage can indeed be more expensive. What if you can’t afford – or don’t want to pay for – a more expensive policy at this stage of your career, when your budget may already be stretched thin?
There is, fortunately, another option.
Get Protection Now – Add More Coverage Later
What if you could get a plan that you could afford now, with the option to add more coverage later – at any time throughout your career?
This concept is called Add As You Grow and it works just as it sounds. If you’re a young physician, you can purchase the coverage you can afford today – and add more as your family, your income and your financial responsibilities grow down the road.
Having a plan that helps protect your family now is certainly better than having no plan at all.
