No cover…turns your world upside down

The Smith family looked like they had it all.

Dad – Lance, 44 a self employed Engineer earning $240,000. Mum – Sally 41, a qualified physiotherapist, at home full time with their 3rd child aged 4 with 2 other kids at school. Living in their dream home.

Lance suffered a stroke which left him hospitalized for 9 months. Permanent paralysis down his left side and blind.

Unfortunately for the Smith family, Lance didn’t believe in insurance.

The consequences for the Smith family: · Lance will never work again and needs full time care. He will never drive a car again or walk unaided.

Sally will now be the breadwinner of the family until retirement. She will have to go back to work full time. · Sally will also have the additional commitment of being Lance’s home carer. · The family have to sell the house and downsize in a cheaper area. · The kids have to move schools · The youngest child is now in full time daycare. · The family have to get a new car which can accommodate Lance’s wheelchair

While insurance would not have stopped this tragic event from happening to Lance and his family, it would have given them financial security and not turned their entire world upside down. Have you thought what would happen to your family?
