GoFundMe

Have you ever used it? If you haven't, you probably know someone that has had to use it. We used it once. It was to raise money to go on a really cool field trip to NYCity with my daughter. We didn't need to raise a whole lot, but one of our friends was super generous and helped us out a lot.

It is there to help people raise money for all sorts of things. It was originally put out there as crowdfunding for start ups. It was in place for Life's Important Moments. Now a days it is most known for helping people out of jam when life shows up - ya know - heart attacks, stroke, cancer, funeral expenses. Now it is known for Life's Desperate Moments.

Either way, the amount of successful "projects" are very few to those that don't get fully funded. You actually have some kind of INFLUENCE in order for it to work. You have to have CONNECTIONS with well known people, tv, paper or something like that to have them take up your torch and make it work for you.

So, if you are unwilling to plan and have a "GoFundYourself" Living Benefits Life Insurance Policy in place... I have to ask - Do you consider yourself INFLUENCIAL? Do you know the right people who can help you create what you need?

Our friends, I would consider them to be pretty influential in their community... and they were only able to raise $13k - while that was amazing - it wasn't nearly enough. They are extremely grateful for everyone that contributed, but when their 28 yr old daughter died unexpectantly from ecoli... it cost WAY more than anyone ever dreamed. They even had $90k in life insurance available to them.

They will be digging out for years to come.

I cannot express how easy and affordable it is to put a GoFundYourself Plan in place! Don't wait until it is too late. Ask us - find out more information. You're older self will thank you later.
