Moving on Up
You’re planning on having kids together, maybe soon, or maybe in the future.
It’s great that you’re thinking about your, and your yet-to-come family’s future – as often it’s something we don’t like to ponder on too much. Some of the things you've been discussing might include:
- If anything happens to one of us, how can we make it as stress free for the other person as possible? Dealing with grief will be hard enough, without having to worry about paying the bills.
- If one or both of us gets sick and can’t work, how long can we live off our savings before we run out of cash?
- While we don’t have kids yet, if we sort out our life insurance now while we’re young and healthy, then at least we know we’re sorted at the best possible price.
