Smart Strategies for Protecting Business Owners: Reduce the long-term cost of your insurance In this eighth and final part of the series which we began in April 2011, we look at options to reduce the long-term cost of your insurance. The key to good protection is to ensure that the right amount of cash is paid to the right people at the right time because statistically before the age of 70: • 21% of men and 20% of woman will be diagnosed with cancer | • 12% of men and 4% of woman will have a heart attack | • 4% of men and 3% of woman will suffer a stroke | • 15% of men and 14% of woman will suffer from another critical illness | • 7% of men and 1% of woman will die from something other than a critical illness | • 41% of men and 58% of woman will not have suffered a critical illness |

In short, if you are a male you have less than a 50/50 chance of getting through to age 70 without suffering some major trauma event.
