Lifelines of advice

Real-life stories of navigating life’s hard moments with vital insurance advice.

Protection for what matters the most

 

Few people expect to need insurance, yet it can become essential when the unexpected happens. These stories from IG clients and Advisors show how crucial insurance is, at any age, in helping you overcome life’s most difficult moments and keeping your lives and finances on track.  

Lindsey

"It let me buy back time with my family"
When Lindsey was diagnosed with cancer, critical illness insurance allowed her to focus on her recovery and get back some of the time she lost with her young family.

Levi 

"Provided peace of mind for my family"
After a traumatic skiing accident, Levi couldn’t walk, eat or talk. Critical illness insurance got him through months of rehab and helped put him ahead financially.

Michel

"It became crucial for me and my family"
A few months after running a half marathon, Michel had a heart attack that kept him off work for five months. Critical illness insurance helped his retirement plans stay on track. 

Laura

"We’d be living a different life"
When her husband Rod died unexpectedly, the insurance strategy that Laura’s IG Advisor had put in place allowed her and her children to keep living the way they’d always lived. 

Rod

"Taken care of, no matter what"
Rod’s colleague and friend Joseph understood the importance of proactively protecting his family, so when he died suddenly, his extensive IG insurance plan meant his wife didn’t have to worry about her future.

Patrick

“I would have lost everything”
When entrepreneur and single father Patrick suddenly had health issues, the disability insurance strategy set up by his IG Advisor allowed him to keep his business afloat and take care of his family.

Édith

“It really was a lifesaver for me”

When business owner Édith was diagnosed with cancer, a comprehensive insurance strategy put in place by her IG Advisor allowed her to keep her business afloat while taking care of her health.
