GOOD MONEY MANAGEMENT
– If the living room of your home is on the
far corner of your lot, the dining room on
another corner, the kitchen in the street and
the bedrooms scattered all over the
neighborhood, your home wouldn’t be very
livable, would it? It is the same with your
life insurance. Unless the individual
policies you own are fitted together to form
a balanced, well-planned program, they
cannot possible do what they should for you.
Good money management calls for having
the life insurance you own reviewed at
regular intervals. In order to be financially
sound, you should know exactly where you
are going. My review is not designed to get
you to buy more life insurance. Instead, I
work your ideas and ambitions into a plan,
and then organize it with your budget in a
way that will bring you closer to your goals.
As one of our major fundraising
events, we sell stadium seats at the Nebraska
home football games. If you are interested
in helping (and seeing the game for free),
contact Mark Main at 475-0715 or
[email protected].
Good of the Order:
Please keep the following in your prayers:
Dean and LaVonne Main, parents of
Mark Main, who have been diagnosed
with cancer.
Vivian Lowery, who continues to deal
with health problems.
Maria Kavan, Kevin Ostdiek’s sister,
who is suffering with health issues
Joe Erion’s family as they continue to
cope with health issues
Dave Tubman’s mother, who is battling
cancer
