Your kids are great but did they go?

Your children are grown, and you think the First National Bank of Mom & Dad is closed. Think again!

The recent Wall Street Journal article "The Big Squeeze" almost half of adults aged 40 to 59 has provided financial support for at least one adult child last year, with 27% providing the primary support. In contrast, 21% of this group provide financial support to a mother age 65.

The point is that you may still need that old policy of life insurance that you plan to drop because your kids are great. And when you have grandchildren, the window of the bank's drive-up is open 24/7.

If you are their means for financial support and are no longer here to provide, how is your turn to family for help? The government? Social Security? Friends and other family members?

Maybe it's time to take a financial inventory and make sure that you take personal financial responsibility for the care of your family. If you need professional help, find an agent or advisor LIFE Locator agent.
