Life Insurance
Not your Grandpa's term Life Insurance. $500,000 for up to 30 years, convertible 15–25 years. Just issued for a 38-year-old female — just over $100/month.

Small Group Medical Insurance. In 2025 we had a plan that paid 250% more than premiums collected and still got a renewal. Surprisingly simple for small businesses.
The Real Talk
"NOBODY says 'I want the cheapest surgeon' ever."
If you need a hip or knee replaced you want the BEST surgeon, not the cheapest. Same with insurance — no one thinks they're being cheap, but they are.
