  Bravo, Bob. =20

  I couldn't agree more!  The reason more people don't buy LTCi is =
because we suck at selling it!

  Pardon my vernacular!

  If we all did a better job of closing, studying, hustling... every =
self-reliant individual in this country would own long term care =
insurance regardless of age!

  Thank you for talking straight!

  Mr. Cuscovitch's commentary on who should and shouldn't own LTCi was =
the biggest pile of horsesh*t I've run across in a long time. =20

  Keep up the good work, Bob.  I never thought I'd say that to a Bankers =
Life agent, but I am in this case!

demographic market.=20

    Either we uncover the need or we don't
    Either the client trusts us or they don't.
    Either the client accepts responsibility or they don't.

    That is our job.


    The trinkets and trims and new ideas may be a good way of improving =
our products, but it is up to us to make the recommendations that will =
improve our clients postion in relation to risk and ability.

    I have chosen to be a career agent and trainer with one company that =
has at least four different LTC products. Those plus a couple of other =
products are enough to help everyone I've spoken to in the past 5 =
months. Those of you that are independents, select a small handful of =
the most durable companies with well established claims history and go =
to work.

    Not everyone is going to get it and the latest and greatest widget =
is no going to push them over the edge, it's only going to give them =
another reason to "think it over".

    If you consistently sit at the kitchen table and do the right thing, =
the numbers will take care of themselves.

astounding.

    Just my opinion, I could be wrong.

      Hello All!

      We all agree that it is great that a few of our clients have the =
forethought to purchase LTCi at younger ages, however most people are =
still not listening to us. A new strategy is coming from Hancock to help =
us attract those younger clients. It is the GPO (Guaranteed Purchase =
Option) with a conversion option at age 65 to compound inflation. This =
was introduced during the Federal program with a lot of success. We want =
to get those younger prospects insured before they have insurability =
problems or if they go on claim before age 65.

      Most agents who are selling to younger clients are selling a lower =
benefit with compound inflation, which is not sufficient if the client =
goes on claim before 65. This new option of giving them a higher benefit =
with optional inflation conversion later in life may be a way for us to =
break through some of the barriers that we have with the younger market, =
when we are fighting for dollars that are going towards retirement or =
college savings for children.

      1) What are your thoughts on using this GPO with the age 65 =
conversion option?

      2) We see a lot of Kanawha, State Life, Lincoln Benefit, and Life =
Investors being sold which sounds like some prospects are just spread =
sheeting for the lowest price. Shouldn't we be looking for the top =
carriers that have paid out more in claims than some of these companies =
are worth?

      3) We know CNA was a top carrier and look what has happened to =
them!

      Sometimes we are our own worst enemy! Younger clients trust us to =
give them the best carriers if they are going to buy this stuff before =
age 50. I have seen several well known companies leave the LTCi market =
in the last 10 years, but there are still some agents selling LTCi based =
solely on the lowest premium. If we want to go after the younger ages, =
shouldn't we be using the companies with long standing history in LTCi =
and deeper pockets? These younger folks may not go on claim for another =
30 or 40 years.

      I am looking forward to YOUR thoughts. Shoot me an email or give =
me a call to discuss.

        I third it!  I also own lifetime benefits, compounding inflation =
and have since I was 37!  People who purchase this product at younger =
ages have usually experienced some family members needing LTC.  When =
you've had 2 grandfathers pass on Alzheimer's, a grandmother who gave =
everything to Medicaid while spending 7 years in a NH (live to 98) and =
helped another family member as a caregiver, you don't hesitate to get =
your own plan in place ASAP.  Not to mention the fact that:
        =A8 One-third of stroke victims each year are under age 65

        =A8 41% of heart attacks occur to Americans under age 65

        =A8 Average age for diagnosis of Parkinson's disease =3D 52

        =A8 Average age of diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) =3D 42

        =A8 Average age of diagnosis of ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) =3D =
48



        Or that 40% of people using LTC are between 18 & 64.

              Who should not own LTCi?

              Here are the 3 answers thus far:

              A)  From Art:  Everyone should have at least a three year =
LTC plan if the premiums would not affect their life style.  People who =
would have to alter their life style or give something up to pay for a =
three year LTC plan should not buy LTC.=20

              B)  From Bob:  My personal belief is anyone under 50 that =
can afford it. And anyone over 50 that has more than $50,000 in assets =
that can afford it.

              C)  From Doug: =20
              1. If the prospect does not have Major Medical Health =
Insurance.
              2. If the prospect is not saving for retirement - i.e. =
contributing to a
              IRA/401k
              3. If the prospect has children in college and can't =
afford the premiums
              now without corrupting their retirement saving and/or =
college education
              4. If the prospect can't afford to pay the premiums =
without sacificing
              other important expenses (rent, etc).


              Those are all interesting answers. =20

              I appreciate the responses.  I'd really like to hear from =
Mr. Cuscovitch, because he's obviously not a big fan of LTCi.... and he =
seemed to imply that there are some very specific reasons for not owning =
ltci.  I'd love to hear those reasons from him.

              I like Doug's answer the best.  I think that in order to =
build people's trust we need to be able to give them some objective =
reasons for not owning LTCi. =20

              Regarding being over age 50 and having at least $50K in =
savings, if I'm retired and my wife and I have $100K, she can keep most =
of that if I go on Medicaid...  =20

              Whether we like it or not, Medicaid is our #1 competition, =
so we've got to understand it ourselves and we've got to help others =
understand it. =20

              Does anyone else have any other 'objective' reasons =
someone SHOULD NOT buy LTCi?

              An easier one than that is -

              Everyone should have at least a three year LTC plan if the =
premiums would not affect their life style.

              People who would have to alter their life style or give =
