Dear Reader,

Please read this very carefully and thoroughly.

You and I have similar purposes in this world.

It is your job to provide food, clothing, shelter, schooling, medicine, and other things for your loved ones. You do this while I lie in your safe deposit box.

I have faith and trust in you. Out of your earnings will come the cost of my upkeep. At times, I may apear insignificant to you - but someday (and who knows when) you and I will change places.

When you are laid to rest, I will come alive and do your job. I may provide food, clothing, shelter, schooling, medicine and other things your family will continue to need - just as you're doing now. When your work and labor are done, mine will begin. Through me your hands can carry on.

Whenever you feel the price you are paying for my upkeep is burdensome, remember that I can do more for you and your family than you will ever do for me.

I am your life insurance policy. If you do your part, I will do mine.

Sincerely Yours,

Your Life Insurance Policy
