Topic 2: Do something special for your kids along with buying Insurance – Check out How

A lot of investors must have bought term plan or other insurance plans so that in your absence your dependents do not face any kind of financial crunch. It is good to buy life cover, but maybe buying life cover is just half job done.

Whenever you look at the face of your little one, you should do something special for him along with buying life cover for securing his future.

If something happens to you, your child will get enough financial support from the insurance money, but you will lose out on the opportunity to share your wisdom (your life learning’s) with him. There are a few things, which you may would like your son to learn or know from you and your life experiences.

Life insurance policy is very strong support a parent can give their kids, but it lacks emotions, feelings, and love in it. To add feelings and emotions in it – one can start capturing a few of my experiences in a short journal “Notes from Daddy”. This little journal, once it gets complete will be kept next to original insurance policy document.

3 things which that can be captured in “Notes from Daddy” Journal

1. List of Books that had a deep impact on your life
Since my college days, you might have been a voracious reader and there have been many life-changing books that had a deep impact on life and it has the major contribution on overall learning and development process. You would like to share reading list with your kids when they grow up.

Now, it is possible that s/he may or may not choose to read books from the reading list but at least you would like to share or communicate the reading experiences and book list with him. Start building reading list which you would like to share. My “Notes from Daddy” journal has a section called “Hidden Treasure - Personal Reading list”.

2. List of Movies that inspired you
There have been many movies and short documentaries which changed your complete outlook towards life. Have a section called “Movies that will move YOU” in my “Notes from daddy” journal. If you want, you can also make a list of inspiring movies which you want your son or daughter to watch in their growing years.

3.Teachers who changed your WORLD
It is said that – “when the student is ready, the teacher appears”. You must have been fortunate to have right mentors and teachers at different junctions of my life. Your kids will also have many teachers in their life. Sharing from your life your teachers would have taught you some very important distinctions of life which helped to look at the world with a new pair of eyes. You must have had some “wow learning moments” while you were with your teacher.  Why not capture them at one place so that it gets communicated to your next generation in your absence.

Some final words

Our body is a place to observe the world from, it is a physical representation of you, be clear that your body is not you. Life is beautiful and at the same time highly unpredictable and uncertain. Having life cover is important but it is still half job done. In your absence, do not just pass on insurance amount to your children, also pass on your wisdom and selective life experiences to them.

If you already have life cover and would like to create your little “experience journal” you can start working on it. If you do not have adequate life cover contact your insurance adviser and the will be delighted to you guide with the buying process.
