The Greatest Time Ever
By Van Mueller, LUTCF

There is an historic, once in a lifetime, “Perfect Financial Storm” about to hit our country and, for that matter, every industrialized country on the planet. On May 30th I will show you how to share with your brokers why this is the “Greatest Time Ever” to be an insurance and financial service professional.

We are fortunate as an industry. The “Perfect Financial Storm” has provided our brokers with a plethora of challenges that our prospects and clients must be made aware of as well as dealt with. Most Americans do not know any of this is happening and, more importantly, how it will impact them. Even people with money, or at least an awareness of some of these issues, do not know the magnitude of the risk that lies ahead.

My presentation will illustrate why you and your brokers are the most valuable people on the planet at this time. Only you have the opportunity and the tools necessary to point Americans toward financial freedom in the 21st century.

During my presentation, we will discuss how to showcase this “value” to your broker’s prospects and clients. This information is so powerful that the first reaction I receive from a prospect or client is not “I want to buy something” (even though they will). Their first reaction is almost always, “will you share this information with my mother and father, or my brothers and sisters, or the people at work.” It is so powerful because not only does it help to make the sale, but it also replenishes your supply of prospects as a natural result of the process.

What are some of the issues we need to discuss with our prospects and clients? Let me give you some examples:

The growth of the federal budget. What impact will entitlements have on the budget in the future? How much of the budget will go just to interest? Does our government make it clear to Americans that they do not have the money to fix Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid as they exist today?

The cost of the war. Do Americans realize that we are borrowing every cent of the war money?

Our country’s infrastructure. Repair of bridges, highways, etc. Disaster area declarations: who pays and where do we get the money?

State and local governments will require trillions more dollars to provide the pension and health care benefits promised to retirees. Large companies and corporations have also underfunded their pension and health care programs; some will even be eliminating benefits for retirees. Housing bubbles! Nursing home costs! Much longer life expectancies! America will have much higher taxes in the future and much lower benefits. That will mean more out of pocket and less discretionary money to buy goods and services

How will that impact everyone?

Our industry had the ability to show people how to not only survive all of this, but to actually thrive because of it. I believe if you miss this session you will miss an opportunity to expand your practice exponentially. Come prepare to learn why this is, without a doubt, the “Greatest Time Ever” to be in this industry.
