But, being a thoughtful father, he wanted to make certain that, even if he were not here, things would work out for his daughter pretty much as he had planned them even to a college education. And he has made sure of these things through lift insurance! Now he knows that his little girl and her - mother, too will never be in need, if anything happens to him. 1 i And having done that, he has gone one step furtheri He is building up a life insurance plan that Is making his own future secure, a plan that will pay him some sort of monthly income in later years.
