08:37:47 From Joe Sperling-Protectionist-NYAJ : Wishing you all a fabulous day! I’m Joe Sperling – “Protectionist.” Why that?
I’ve been helping folks protect what’s important for over 30 years:
Families (Is anything really more important?) – with Life Insurance,
Incomes (the most valuable asset one has) – in case of disability,
Assets in general – with Long-Term Care plans,
Retirement – with conservative Annuities for lifetime income.
Want to know your options? I help show choices.
I make life easier by getting money into the hands of those who need it.
FACT: Bad stuff happens. I help folks plan and prepare, to avoid panic.
PUT PLANS IN PLACE WHILE YOU CAN.
Don’t delay until too late. Life’s too short to wait.

09:30:32 From Shanelle James : So true
