01 — TERM LIFE
Term life
I do not write it. If you have a mortgage and young children, level term is usually the cheapest way to cover exactly that, for exactly the years it matters, and it is often the right answer.
If that is your answer, I will tell you it is your answer and point you at somebody who can write it. I am not paid for that referral and it does not come back to me in any other form.
I am telling you this on my own website because the alternative is you finding out from someone else that the thing I sell was not the only option. That is a worse conversation for both of us.
02 — ANYWHERE EXCEPT TEXAS
Anywhere except Texas
My licence is Texas and only Texas. I cannot sell you a policy anywhere else, and nothing on this site is an offer to do so.
If you are outside Texas and you want to talk anyway, message me. I will answer the question. I just cannot be the one who writes it.
03 — ADVICE
Advice
I am not a financial advisor, an investment adviser, an accountant or an attorney, and nothing here is investment, tax or legal advice. I sell one thing and I try to know it properly.
If what you need is somebody to look at your whole financial picture, that is a different professional and I will say so.
Ask me the awkward one
Whether you want to do this job or you are working out what cover you need, the first message is the same: tell me what is actually going on and I will tell you what I would do — including when the answer is that you should keep your money.
