Insurance During Retirement
It is just as important to have your assets protected when you retire as it is when you are a full-time wage earner. Consider some insurance changes you may need to make. A good life insurance policy will protect your assets for your heirs and continue any income for the people who depend on it. Health insurance can be a great help if you become sick and need special medical care. Make sure you choose the policies that are right for you and your family, and don’t get talked into getting more than you need.
