Should I Buy Term or Whole Life?
At some times in our life, we are faced with buying life insurance for ourselves and/or our family. There are so many types, and so many companies. What kind should we buy? What are the purposes? What are the differences?
Before telling you what the differences are between whole life and term life insurances, I will let you know a little about my background in this area. As a financial analyst, I was an independent distributor that issued term life insurance for over four years. I have sold, and am currently selling whole life insurance, with the availability to sell some term. I am a debit route insurance producer licensed to sell within the state of Louisiana. I provide home service to my clients. Most of my customers prefer me to collect their monthly premiums from their homes.

Calling Into Work Made Easy, or The Ease of Technological White Lies
Many people have called in sick to work when they were actually just fine. Well, I have been reading many news reports lately about how technology is making it easier to lie to the boss. As the world becomes more technologically advanced with such mediums of communication as email and text messaging, it will become easier to call in sick and to distort the truth.
The majority of people admitted to feeling less guilty about lying when having the electronic device between them and the boss. Of course, the first thing that comes to mind is not having to pretend with voice adjustments or background noise changes.
Even calling in with cell phones makes it easier because the phone call can be made from anywhere. The caller can say that they are home sick or at the doctor’s office and actually be elsewhere. Take away the voice and now the text message comes in to say: “I’m sick not coming.”
Not only has the caller remove the voice factor, but also the response factor. The boss now can call or text back. At this point, the caller feels that they have accomplished their part of the deal by notifying the boss and feel that there is no further communication needed. This means that they will more than likely not answer the phone and attribute it to something else. The boss may be forced to text back. Now, the caller has time to think of a great answer / excuse to give the boss.
