This is a cautionary tale about risk management. ..........................
..............................So my good friend got his super cool new iphone.
This phone is so pretty that he doesn't want to muck it up with a protective case of any kind.
I get that. It is sleek and smooth and he just loves to hold it. Mmmmmm.
And he will continue to feel that way until the day it slips out of his jacket pocket as he unbuckles his seatbelt, and it tumbles to earth while he reaches, seemingly in slow motion, and fails to catch it. Sad. Crash. Regret.
That is the day he will finally order a case for it. He may have to repair or replace the phone, but his days of living without a case are over forever. He has felt the sting of losing something that matters to him, and is now willing to pay a price to protect it from now on.
That case is a lot like an insurance policy. It protects a valued asset.
He may even buy actual phone insurance, but that is a topic for another blog post.
But hear me out-- the busted iphone is really a small price to pay to learn a HUGE lesson about risk management. What's at stake, a thousand bucks? Worst case?
What does proper planning accomplish?
If my client gets sick and loses their income, they feel secure because they know that it IS ALREADY PROTECTED with disability insurance.
With proper planning, paying attention to risk management, you sleep better, knowing that the things that matter to you are protected.
Get the case.
