The Slick Brasier | The Stylist Property Know-It-All

My brother told me to start thinking about life insurance, and while I can see it's pluses and benefits, I feel like right now it's just yet another direct debit that'll be bleeding the money out of my bank account!

I know that life insurance cover is hugely beneficial for families, but while I don't have kids I don't feel I really need it. It would protect my partner though, so it's something to think about, but I might just be better off writing a will.

I don't really relish the thought of thinking about dying and what would happen to my family and my partner if I left them behind, so I guess I'm putting it off. But it's a reality unfortunately - who knows what could happen to any of us, it's better to be prepared than leave behind a horrible mess for our loved ones.
