You’ve Got Insurance for Your Phone, But What About Your Life?

We insure our possessions without thinking twice so don’t delay when it comes to protecting your financial future.

We insure our possessions without thinking twice so don’t delay when it comes to protecting your financial future.

We all know it’s a savvy move to get insurance for your brand new smartphone. You also probably wouldn’t dream about leaving the dealership without having car insurance in place. After all, you use these things every day, anything could happen and replacing either on the fly would throw a serious spanner in your budget. So why haven’t you thought about insuring your life?

It’s ironic, isn’t it? We’re quick to protect the things we buy, but when it comes to the one thing that actually pays for all those shiny possessions, ourselves, we tend to put it off.

 

Your Life Deserves More Than a “Maybe Later”

Nobody likes to think about the day their phone gets stolen or their car gets written off. But these things could happen and, thanks to your insurance, you’re not left with a financial headache if they do. Getting insurance seems like a no-brainer. Now think about your life. There’s no “maybe” or “could” when it comes to dying. Unless you’ve discovered a magic elixir nobody else knows about, the one certainty about your life is that you’re definitely going to die.

When the inevitable happens, if you don’t have life cover, your family could be left scrambling to pay bills, cover school fees or even just arrange a funeral. And unlike that cracked phone screen you can fix in an hour, financial stress takes a much bigger toll.

 

The truth is, life insurance isn’t just a policy. It’s a plan. It’s a way to make sure the people you love have the time to grieve without money worries piling up and, depending on your cover amount, can even realise big dreams like paying off your bond or ensuring your children receive a tertiary education.

 

But Isn't Life Insurance Complicated?
Not with MiWayLife! We’re proud of the fact that we make life insurance affordable and easy to understand. It works like this – you’ll pay a low monthly premium and we’ll offer a set amount of coverage that’s paid out in a lump sum to your beneficiaries in the event of your passing. Our 4-in-1 policy also includes an Accelerated Funeral Benefit, funeral cover for you and your family members and a Terminal Illness Benefit.

Your premium will depend on several factors, including your age, health, and lifestyle. However, as an example, you could get R500 000 worth of life cover from MiWayLife from just R164 per month!

 

The Bottom Line

You wouldn’t dream of driving around without car insurance, so why walk around with an uninsured life? Take care of yourself the way you take care of your prize possessions. Because when it comes down to it, no phone, laptop or car is as valuable - or as replaceable - as you are. So, why not get maximum peace of mind with a quick quote from MiWayLife today?
