Today is the day! Life insurance just got a whole lot easier for parents in the Empire State.
If you’re a parent like me or my co-founder Steven, you’ve probably considered buying life insurance. It’s a smart way to help ensure that, even if something were to happen to you, your family would be taken care of financially.
But with so many other things on your plate, it’s easy to push getting coverage to the end of a never ending list. It’s understandable: the process is often intimidating, slow, and complicated.
The problem is bigger here in New York where the world seems to move at lightning speed and every second is precious.
