The new reality - the silent majority is being ignored and abused by the violent and outspoken minority
It has been 5 months since the lockdown caused by the uncertainty of COVID-19 transmission and lethality. It has been shown that social distancing, avoiding large crowds, and generally being mindful of your neighbors as well as self quarantining if you feel ill are helping reduce the spread of the disease.
How do you keep your financial plan in place, when you are worried about having a job, being attacked leaving your home, having your business vandalized just because it’s there?
For those with businesses, hopefully, you had insurance in place prior to all this madness to protect your business assets.
For those who thought I will get life insurance when my business is making more money or when I expand or ______ (fill in the blank) now is the time for you to call your insurance agent and review your options. Between the uncertainty regarding creating a vaccine for the virus and the increasing violence of the minority against anyone they deem different than themselves you need to protect your loved ones against the unthinkable.
And as always continue to build your safety fund. This is where you hopefully have stashed 3 to 6 months of income for the what-ifs in life. With the uncertainty of a vaccine and the date that life will return to pre-COVID-19 activities, adding to your safety fund is a prudent course of action.
I believe in you!
