Toughest requirement for any father is having sufficient funds on hand to pay for his child's education when the time comes. And the surest, simplest answer is to buy your child New York Life's low premium Whole Life insurance now! Premium rates for Whole Life are so low while your child is young (only $11.00 per month at age 10) that most fathers can easily afford the $10,000 minimum face amount. And the rate stays the same no matter how long the policy is kept in force. Cash values grow so that by the time your child reaches college age a substantial fund can be at hand to help pay his expenses. Or, if college money isn't needed then, cash values can be used later on for other purposes- starting a business, building a home, or for retirement income. Contact me soon for details. /
