Whether you already hold a policy or are just starting to explore your options, this book will help you ask the right questions and make confident, informed decisions — so you find out where you stand from a checklist on a quiet evening, not from a declined claim on the worst day of your life.

Hidden Fine Print, Real Coverage Gaps

Questions to Ask Before a Crisis
The questions to ask about your income, mortgage, health, family and business protection before a crisis forces you to ask them.
You've got the policy. The premiums are coming out of your account. Maybe you've had the cover for five, ten or even fifteen years
So, you assume you're protected. That's understandable. But here's the question most people don't ask: "Would my insurance still be enough if something happened to me tomorrow?"
Because your life hasn't stood still.
Maybe you've:
Bought a home.
Increased your mortgage.
Had children.
Changed jobs.
Increased your income.
Started a business.
Become self-employed.
Taken on business debt.
Had a partner reduce their working hours.
Experienced changes in your health or circumstances.
Yet your insurance may still be based on the person you were when you first bought it. That's the "set-and-forget" trap. Your life changes. Your financial responsibilities change. But your protection can remain frozen in time.
THE DANGER ISN'T ALWAYS HAVING NO INSURANCE.
Sometimes it's having insurance you THINK is enough.
Imagine this.
You're diagnosed with a serious illness. Your first thoughts aren't about insurance. They're about getting better. Your family. Your children. Your mortgage. Your work. Your business. Then the financial questions begin
How long can we manage without my normal income?
Can we keep paying the mortgage?
What does my insurance actually cover?
What happens to the business if I'm not there?
What happens to the business if I'm not there?
And that's when the fine print suddenly matters. Your policy might have a waiting period. A specific definition. An exclusion. A benefit limit. A particular occupation definition. Or a level of cover that was appropriate years ago but no longer reflects your life today.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit.
The worst time to discover a protection gap is when you desperately need the protection.
WHAT ABOUT ACC?
ACC is an important part of New Zealand's safety net. But ACC is not the same thing as having comprehensive personal protection.
ACC generally relates to injuries caused by accidents. What about an illness? What about cancer? What about a heart condition? What about another serious medical condition that keeps you away from work? What about the mortgage and household expenses while you're recovering?
For many families and self-employed people, that's where the conversation about personal insurance becomes important.
AND WHAT IF YOU OWN A BUSINESS?
For a business owner, the risk isn't always just your personal income. It can be the business itself. What happens if the person generating revenue suddenly can't work? What happens to:
Staff wages?
Rent?
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
Loan repayments?
Supplier commitments?
