When Life Gives You Traffic, You Prepare With a Good Podcast
March 27, 2024
GBU members know how to prepare ...
Do I need my sunglasses, umbrella or snow boots on this spring morning? Will my 10-mile commute take 15 or 45 minutes? Is that pothole a little bump on the road or a sinkhole waiting to swallow my car?
We ask these questions every day as we prepare to go outside with our sunglasses, umbrellas, snow boots, podcast playlists and ... grappling hooks. But, of course, as a GBU member, you know there is one more tool you can add to your toolkit to prepare for the road ahead—life insurance!
In addition to helping provide financial security for those you love most, GBU’s Secure Series Whole Life coverage helps you with life’s difficulties along the way by accumulating cash value that you can borrow in case of, well, a rainy day. With a wide range of face values and payment terms, you can purchase a policy that meets your needs and budget now, with the ability to purchase additional coverage during certain periods of your life with the Guaranteed Purchase Option Rider.

GBU Life is the marketing name for GBU Financial Life. Life insurance is underwritten by GBU Financial Life (GBU), Pittsburgh, PA. Policy will mature when insured reaches age 121.
Payment of dividends is not guaranteed as the assumptions on which they are based are subject to change. Loans and withdrawals taken against a permanent life insurance policy will reduce the death benefit and may result in a taxable situation. Riders are optional and have additional fees associated with them. Policy and features are subject to approval and may not be available in all states. Please see policy and rider for complete details. GBU and its agents do not provide tax, legal or investment advice. Please consult with a legal or tax professional prior to the purchase of any contract. Contract Form Series: ICC20-WL, FL20-WL.2, ICC20-SPWL, FL20-SPWL.2, GEN20-WL, GEN20-SPWL, ND20-WL, ND20-SPWL

Every child can name a teacher who made a difference: the one who stayed late to help, offered encouragement at just the right moment or made learning feel exciting. Recognizing a teacher’s dedication doesn’t require grand gestures, but it does call for intention. Thoughtful appreciation gifts, especially during Teacher Appreciation Week or year-end celebrations, offer a tangible way to express heartfelt gratitude.

Ballots will be mailed at the beginning of August 2026 to all eligible members. Eligible members may vote by paper ballot via mail or electronic ballot online once they receive their ballot.
