She remained there in a coma and on […]
The cost of life insurance will vary wildly from one person to another. The premium of a non-smoking 20 year old female will be significantly less expensive than a 60 year old twenty a day smoking male and the blunt reason why is that the latter is far more likely to die than the former. […]
Last week was World Cancer Day and Cancer Research UK released new figures showing that cancer death rates in the UK have dropped by 10% over the last decade.

When we become parents, suddenly life becomes a minefield of ‘what ifs’ which our little bundles need to be protected against. What if they were to fall down the stairs? What if the cat was to sit on their adorable sleeping head and suffocate them? What if they put their inquisitive fingers in the plug […]
We have talked about the importance of critical illness cover in protecting your family against the possible consequences of contracting a serious illness in previous blog posts.

Strokes happen to old people, right? Wrong. According to The Stroke Association, there has been an ‘alarming’ increase in the number of people in their 40s and 50s suffering from strokes. The figures come from official NHS data and are indeed rather shocking. Hospital admissions for 20 to 64 year olds suffering from the disease […]
The plight of a British citizen visiting Thailand over New Year highlights the importance of having medical cover whether you are travelling abroad on holiday or living away from home for an extended period of time. The problem with both travel and medical insurance is that it can seem a waste of money until you […]
It has to be said that the financial industry has not always had the most spotless of reputations and you don’t need to go far to hear a beef from someone who has been mis-sold a life insurance product. Any attempt to sell a financial product or service by misrepresenting that product or by misleading […]
If you have a family, life insurance is a no brainer to ensure that your family are left financially secure should you pass away. However, for singletons, the issue is less clear cut.
