“Clothes make the man”, says the old adage. But today
more and more men are learning that they can also
enhance their standing with certain people by owning
life insurance.
Take employers, for instance. To them, a man’s
ownership of life insurance suggests that he is fore
sighted, thrifty, realistic. Above all, it reflects willing
ness to accept responsibility — an attitude that
impresses every employer.
In fact, anyone who learns that a man owns life insur
ance regards him with added respect. They know that
it represents one of the most important assets any man
can have.
Yet perhaps the most important effect of owning life
insurance is on the policyholder himself. It gives him
a sense of achievement. For in no other way can he
create such a valuable estate for1 so little in so short
a time. ?
So life insurance can do more than provide financial
security for your family and yourself in later years.
It also influences people in ways that help win success !
