What Makes You Invincible?

If you ever watch the news you realize the world can be a crazy place.

Recently, one of my clients died due to breast cancer and only after 1 year of being diagnosed.  It got to me pretty bad.  This is a woman I had only met a few months before helping her company, but she is an awesome woman.  It made me think of how fragile mortality is.  It also made me wonder why people think they're invincible.

You see, my work is to avoid things like cancer and critical events in a financial way.  No matter how many statistics and studies are out there, potential clients seem to always think nothing will ever happen to them......  Why?  

1 in 3 people WILL be diagnosed in their life time.

Only 10% of Cancer is hereditary/genetic.  The other 90% is random.

1 in 8 people need medical help from an accident every year.

There is a heart attack every 40 seconds.

Of course nobody wants to get that call from the doctor that something is wrong, yet and still it isn't a foreign probability to the human condition.  Nobody wants to think they're going to have any accidents, yet people get arrested sometimes and pop up injured or even dead once in custody.  

What makes some think they're immune?

Speaking things into the universe is a reality for a lot of things, I just urge people to think of the world we live in and how the health aspects of it are not totally in our control.  I believe people think they're immune because they don't want to talk reality.  Sometimes it's necessary just to avoid issues later.

Life is fragile and the last thing you want to think about during a health crisis is money; that's why I work to be first to help during that time.

Have A Plan, Not A Plea.

RIP My Friend.
