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

The GBU Life Scholarship Awards support students in college, trade programs, non-college programs, and graduate school, helping them achieve their dreams, setting them on a career path and realizing life goals. Since its founding, the GBU Foundation has awarded 4,500 scholarships and educational grants totaling more than $3.2 million. In 2025, 215 members received $226,000 to support their two‑year, four‑year and graduate studies. Here’s a look at where the rubber meets the road — as we check in on past grantees to see how their scholarship awards have helped them stay on course, where they are now, and where they hope to be in the future.
To celebrate our 134th anniversary, GBU Life launched the Birthday Bash initiative, calling upon the GBU Life community to honor our fraternal legacy through service. GBU Life invited members, producers, and community leaders to assemble and deliver shelf-stable cake kits for individuals and families who may otherwise go without a birthday celebration. What can seem like a simple act of service could be the spark of hope someone needed.
