STEP 3
Reconciliation of Family’s Immediate Income Versus Immediate Expenses
STEP 3
If “Income minus Expenses” computation indicates that your family’s income is enough to cover the immediate expenses they will face, your first concern about their financial security is satisfied. But remember that this only covers their immediate expenses, it does not provide for a continued source of income for their day-to-day, month-to-month living expenses. This will be the next greatest concern you will face. On the other hand, if the computation shows that your survivors will not have enough immediate cash available to cover their expenses, you will need to take immediate actions to insure their financial security. Other than to increase the amount of your life insurance, there are very few actions you can take to provide a source of immediate funds, unless you have a “bundle” of money sitting idly by for investment purposes.
