Investments Don't Hug

This is a collection of love stories told through the words of husbands and wives, moms, dads, and their families. Important lessons are woven through these real stories, instead of imaginary accounts where everything goes right and there's always a happy ending. Sometimes life is difficult, but a disciplined thoughtful approach may prepare your family to preserve their respect and dignity even during the most challenging circumstances. These stories share the pain, anxiety and joy experienced by loved ones while illuminating the tools that you can use to take charge of your own financial life for the certainty and security for those you love. As you read have a highlighter nearby to mark important passages, and a pen at hand to make notes within the margins of its pages. It's also wise to have a box of tissues close by, as you pause to take in the emotional significance of its message through the tears shed by the narrators and the author. An important virtue will come through loud and clear; expressing love for your spouse and love for your children by taking the important steps to insure that your love will continue on, by protecting and sheltering the lives of those you love from the financial losses that often occur by your own death.
