“Dynamic, articulate, thought-provoking and inspirational speakers are difficult to find. It becomes even more complex when seeking speakers with powerful messages and concepts to revolutionize our business. Add to the mix that they must be able to connect with their audience and you have some idea as to why we are delighted with the glowing comments received from our delegates at this year’s Annual National CIFPs Conference”

"I sat at the front of your presentation at the Financial Management Seminar yesterday and I was completely captivated by your first hand experiences with your aging parents. I have been an insurance broker for over 20 years and while I did examine the LTC products of a few companies, I concluded that they would not become part of my product offerings. Your presentation made me re-examine my decision. I can now picture the need for this product for my clients. Thank you for that."

Year of our Winter Olympics also marks time when most Boomers will have a surviving parent

When the Baby-boomers were younger, one of their rock anthems, My Generation, included the refrain: "Hope I die before I get old."

In truth, most of us hope to get older before we die but would rather pretend we are forever young...
