Don’t get wiped out: Risk-Management for a Family of Five (feat. Emergency Funds, Disability Insurance, Health Insurance, Property & Casualty Insurance, and Life Insurance Planning)

Today’s show features imaginary clients Mike and Jennifer Murray. Mike is a consulting engagement manager with a big-four accounting firm earning $250,000 per year. His wife homeschools their three children ages 10, 8, and 6. They own a $600,000 home in a leafy Atlanta suburb and we’re going to make sure they take the right steps to protect themselves in the event something terrible happens.

This episode is not about insuring your iPhone or cordless drill. It’s about protecting what you can’t afford to lose – a lifetime of income – from risks you can’t afford to take – a big judgment entered against you in a liability matter, writing a check for the replacement value of your home and personal property, and the loss of the massive contribution any spouse – including a so-called non-working spouse – in your family’s financial life.
