Importance of Insurance in our Lives


Do we really Value the importance of Insurance, or just keep on piling number of Policies just for the sake of Tax Saving and believing that we have done so called Financial Planning.

The meaning of Insurance as provided in the Dictionary is  ‘A contract to provide compensation for loss, damage, or death.’ Or we can say a safeguard against loss or failure.

We should understand that Insurance is not an Investment, but its purely an Expenditure.

So lets see what are the different kind of Insurance available and useful for us.

1.  Life Insurance
2.  Health Insurance
i.Medical Insurance
ii.Daily Cash
3.  Personal Accident

You need Life Insurance to cover the Risk of Death of the earning member of the Family.

Health Insurance is required as a cushion against Hospitalisation Expenses.

Personal Accident Insurance covers the policy holder against death or disability due to an accident.

If you don’t have the right amount Insurance cover, then it will create a big dent in your Family’s Financial situation even if you have a handsome Investment Portfolio.
