may know Anthony Anderson of his hit TV series black-ish and as an host of Eat America , but this actor and comedian is front and center this month promoting the power of life insurance that life happens "spokeswoman insurance -life awareness month. Here it opens on life and life insurance.
Life insurance is generally considered a fairly serious business. Why is someone famous for their sense of humor spokesperson of Life Insurance Awareness Month?
Anthony Anderson For free insurance! I laugh! Joking aside. I've seen what happens to families who do not have life insurance. I just buried a childhood friend who had no life insurance, so we all had to come together and help bury him and take care of his family. And his story is similar to many stories across the nation about people who do not have life insurance.
Over 100 million Americans have no life insurance. That is why I am a part of this to spread the word and raise awareness for those individuals and communities to let them know that it is to be prepared and take care of your family.
What was your first experience with life insurance?
Anthony: This is Marie. We simply called him The Lady Insurance. It was a device in our house growing up. She made sure that my parents had life insurance and would stop by a couple times a year to check on us. She also sold my first policy when I was 18. So my experience with life insurance growing up was basically something that prepared us if one of our parents died doing so that our future was secure.
You have no idea what tomorrow will bring, but we can do it today and today we are talking about life insurance.
Your parents a great example. Is this something you have done with your children?
Anthony: I certainly shared the life lesson that you have to plan for the future. I'm leading by example, too. I increased my coverage of life insurance that my financial situation has changed. That crosses my mind is: How much life insurance do I need for my family would not fight if something happened to me. I think this applies to everyone, regardless of income or background
What most Americans not know life insurance
Anthony:.? it is an investment in the future of their family. If something happens to the head of the house, the family falls apart. But if they have life insurance, the family can stay together and continue with their lifestyle. I think wrongly that we must clarify for people who do not really know.
Many people say they can not afford life insurance. What would you say to them
Anthony: I grew up in Compton. We did not have much money, but my parents made life insurance a priority. They paid the bill to ensure that their family was protected. I do not understand people who will grab a latte and whip their smartphone and say they can not swing $ 15 or $ 30, or whatever basic life insurance could cost them each month.
people also believe that a disease like diabetes make ineligible for a life insurance cover, but this is not necessarily true, is it
Anthony: I have type 2 diabetes and obtained life insurance. It is all about managing your disease. I exercise and eat well right most of the time at least! So with the work I put in and with the help of my doctor, it is under control. I encourage everyone to get healthy for their sake and the sake of their family. In many cases, you can still get a life insurance if you stay as healthy as possible and control of your disease.
Unfortunately, your father died of diabetes complications, and your younger brother was tragically killed in an accident while he was in his 20s. How life insurance come into play
Anthony: lose people you love is never easy, it is devastating. But why do a lot worse by launching financial problems above it all? My father and brother both had life insurance, which came through for us during this time really, really hard
Any parting advice
Anthony:.? the message I would leave people with is that you have to plan for the future. You have no idea what tomorrow will bring, but we can deal with it today -and today we are talking about life insurance. If you get life insurance, the future of your family is taken care of.
