My Client Died Before We Could Get her Covered

After all these years, I still can't look at a clock and say "it's 12:10" without adding "and time for Paul Harvey, news and comment" (or 5:55 and the rest of the story)

you just can't fix stupid. Pizza and cigs and lottery tickets before life insurance.
If they were any different, we wouldn't be in the business we're in. I always say "Never get mad at your money!!". I love these goofy, procrastinating, nasty sons of britches!

Reminds me of a deal a few years ago.
A good client calls me to write her niece (ghetto child) who just had another baby. I tell her I have written her before and she lapsed, so no. I relent and write her as a favor to the family. I write the 19 yr old girl and put the two children as riders. That night the baby dies. App and check are still in my case. Three months later People's Benefit pays the $20,000.00 child rider. The girl instantly buys a car and auto insurance. Cancels the life insurance. Three months later she has lapsed the auto insurance then unlicensed baby daddy #2 totals the car in a DUI (weed) accident. Last year they call me and ask if I will write a policy on her and her three kids
Ah, no.

I would do it as long as the "good client" was the payor this time.

I insure probably 10-12 family members including the tobacco spitting grannie from Tennessee. She already has five polices coming out of her account. Half of this family is very solid the other half are incarcerated or on parole.

Speaking of that....next month I'm supposed to write up a guy that spent 27 years in prison. He got out a little over 2 years ago. Not sure if I want to know what for.....
