"Clothes make the man", says the old adage. But today more
find 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 foresighted, thrifty,
realistic. Above all, it reflects willingness to accept re
sponsibility — an• attitude that impresses every employer.
In fact, anyone who learns that a man owns life insurance
regards him with added respect. They know that it repre-
-sents one of the,most important assets any man can have.
Yet perhaps die most important effect of owning life incur-
ance is on the policyholder himself. It gives him a sense of
achievement. For in no other way can he create such a
evaluable estate for so little in so short a time.
So' life insurance can do more than provide financial
security for your family and yourseelf.,in later years. It also
influences people in ways thalt• help win success!
