Funeral arrangements are one of the realities of life... and one of the most neglected areas of financial planning. Studies have shown that families who have not pre-planned often spend more for the funeral event of a loved one.
Facing the reality of a death in the family and making plans on how to handle it can be one of the best restraints from an emotionally charged financial decision that will be made.

Do\ You know the two kinds of pre-arrangement opportunities available today>
1. An Irrevocably Assigned Insured plan 2. A Trust plan The key to this is being irrevocably assigned and tied to a specific funeral provider, who in turn guarantees the plan and future costs. Sometimes, final expense plans are not irrevocably assigned, and guarantee nothing.
Basic life insurance that is not irrevocably assigned is considered an asset and can be subject to tax liabilities. Money invested in Trust plans are controlled by the funeral provider that has been assigned, and allows that provider to retain certain fees should you decide to change your mind or change funeral providers. Money invested in insured, irrevocably assigned plans are controlled by YOU, the insured, are mobile and secure, with guaranteed payout amounts.
