Preparing for Your Future

July 11, 2022
Are you wondering what’s next once you graduate from high school? Take some time to determine your next move with these helpful tips.
DAYDREAM

Don’t limit yourself by thinking inside the box. Use this time to consider your interests, hopes and aspirations. Do you want to travel? Do you want to own a home on the beach? Have you always wanted a classic car? What about starting your own business? Want to attend trade school or college? Make a list with your wildest dreams.

CONVERSE

Engage in conversations with others. Expand your network to include new friendships and contacts. Through this, you can learn how others obtained their goals, gaining insightful tips and tricks of the trade. Networking also provides the opportunity to find a mentor that can help you navigate through your future path.

SET GOALS

Wondering why you should make a list of your dreams? It’s a reference to help set your goals! Organize your objectives with realistic expectations. Consider categorizing your goals with daily, weekly, monthly or yearly sections.

TRY NEW THINGS

Now is the time to attempt something different. Exploring new options enables learning and growth, which could eventually open doors you never knew existed. Have an open mind and give something new a chance.

As we move into the second quarter of another exciting year, I want to take a moment to reflect on our accomplishments and share some of the new initiatives we are implementing in the realms of sales, marketing and community engagement. Over the past year, GBU Life has reached significant milestones thanks to the dedication and hard work of our team and the trust and support of our members. Our sales department has exceeded targets, and we have expanded our reach to more communities than ever before. We have launched several successful marketing campaigns that have not only increased our visibility but have also strengthened our brand's presence in the industry. For this year, our focus will be educating potential new members on the importance of securing their financial futures through life insurance and annuity products while serving their communities as part of our great Society. Looking ahead, we are committed to enhancing our sales strategies to better serve you. We are introducing some tools for our agents to enhance our products. One new tool is our Defined Benefit Annuity program which combines the Future Flex Fixed Index Annuity (FIA) with a software tool that can help determine retirement savings needs and break them down into contributions over time to help you meet your retirement goals. Be sure to keep in touch with your GBU agent to review your plans and products to see how adding an FIA to your retirement planning can help boost your savings efforts
