Do I Need Insurance?


Imagine that you are on your way to office on a bright Monday morning. The signal changes to red and you halt the car for a while. You are already 10 minutes late for work and your mind is consumed with many different thoughts. The EMI for your dream home is due and your son needs to be admitted to an international school in the neighborhood. While you ponder over your finances, the signal changes to green and before you realize, a bus crashes into your car from behind. As your car jumps forward with a jerk, you are jolted from your seat and before you know it, you are unconscious. You wake up next on a hospital bed with severe head injuries. The doctors inform you that a surgery has been performed and you will not be able to go back to work for another two months. What do you do?



Life is as uncertain as it gets. Nobody can predict the dangers that lie around the corner. Are we prepared to meet these challenges? There are some things we cannot avoid, but we can surely insure ourselves against the damages to minimize their impact. From providing protection against unforeseen events to helping us prepare for the life we plan, insurance has multiple benefits. Insurance also helps in obtaining tax benefits, long-term wealth creation, generating dividends and availing loans against the accumulated cash value. There is a wide variety of policies available that provide cover for life, medical expenses, accidents, professional mishaps, crimes and so on.
