But of course you 'know the odds are hopelessly against your being that lucky. In fact, you don't expect life to hand you even a very small fortune on a platter. Or do you? Take old-age benefits, for instance. Undoubtedly many older people really need help. But no over all security plan is going to provide all the in- come you and your family will ever need in the future. Things just aren't going to be that rosy. Five million Canadians, among whom you are prob- ably one, want and expect security and independence in their later years. And they are planning for it now, in a way that suits their own individual and family needs. These far-sighted men and women are enjoying more of the good things of life than ever before, and at the same time protecting their loved ones now and building secur- ity for their old-age with life insurance. Surely you want to help build this kind of future se- curity for yourself and your family. Nearly 5 million Cana- dian life insurance policy- holders are doing it now!
