Would you be interested in an investment that increased when the Stock Market increases, but does not lose money when the Stock Market declines?

Did you know the # 1 reason, people file bankruptcy is illness. Illness is your biggest threat to achieving your financial goals. Could you pay your mortgage or electric bill if you could not work?

Retirement planning doesn't end at retirement. ALLSTAR FINANCIAL INSURANCE offers expert advice on Medicare, Nursing Care assistance, and IRA distributions.

How We Got Started

After the loss of my wife to cancer in 1989, and being a single parent with a 7 year old son, I understood the need for Life and Health Insurance. So after completing my degree in Accounting (excellent knowledge base for this line of work), I wanted to have the freedom to attend my sons activities and help people protect themselves from the peril that accompanies unexpected Life & Health challenges.

(more) With the exception of the regular paycheck, replacing employer paid benefits is the biggest challenge when pursuing Self-Employment.  You will have many options,  and a lot will be based on your income.  1.  You current employer will offer COBRA,  which basically allows you to keep your current plan,  you just get to pay for it.  For many people this a shock when they see how much these benefits cost.  2.  If your income fall below certain thresholds you are eligible for subsidies that will lower the cost.  In this case you need to enroll on WaHealthplanfinder.org where I am a broker.  I can help to navigate the website and select the plan that is best for you.  3.  If your income exceeds these thresholds then you back to the levels of shock COBRA made you feel.  There are some alternatives to traditional medical insurance,  medical sharing programs that while not defined as insurance,  offer excellent coverage and service.  Of these plans and there are a lot,  I am most excited about one plan.  I feel it is closest to a Qualified Medical Insurance plan with rates 30 - 50% less  http://allstarfinancialinsurance.com/dec-2018 Please feel free to contact me.  It is my pleasure to help you select the program that is best for you.

(more) The fortune is always in the follow-up, way that works best for me is to input information into my database immediately following the event (within 24 hours), I will admit that when I don't do it immediately since the speed and number of new issues that fill your inbox makes it harder to get back to things, so do it now always works better than do it later. Also have a methodology, like I put info into database, send a response email, then within couple days try to schedule a meeting, know how I will respond makes it easier.
