## People we work with

**Modern Life is busy – we get that**.

Sometimes we don’t think about how fast life has changed. We don’t notice how our lives have become more exposed to the unknown and why we need to take more of our own future health and safety into our own hands. So why bother- because thinking shapes expectations and how experiences are interpreted.

> Life Insurance is really Love Insurance.

### The two speeds of modern life and work — fast and faster

The entry to stable adult responsibilities today seems to come later than ever before in many countries, but adult development also lasts longer than ever, with adults in developed countries typically having a life expectancy of at least 20 years beyond age 65.

Together, these changes highlight why we all need to consider a new approach to managing our personal levels of risk and our changing expectations about life, love and work for the decades to come.

### The speed of change

- **Child Free.** More adults now than in the past remain single or partnered but ‘child-free,’ so caring for children no longer dominates the entirety of adult life.
- **Extended Education.** The ‘knowledge economy’ of today takes greater educational preparation and skill development but makes work more cognitively challenging and potentially rewarding than in the past. While more Australians (2.9 million) now have tertiary student debt, adults not only live longer than ever before but are healthier for longer.
- **Family life** is changing in unprecedented ways, as adults make the most of a wider range of choices for how to construct family life, from gay marriage to single motherhood to marriage without children, to parenting deliberately solo, among many others.
- **Work** is more diverse, and in general, jobs are less physically taxing and more cognitively challenging than ever before, presenting both the promise of engaging work and the peril of being unprepared for the rising skill demands of the modern workplace.

### The two main stages of life are 'Rush Hour' & 'Career-and-Care-Crunch'

#### *Rush Hour*

#### Ages 30 to 45 are now 'the rush hour of life'

- Today people around the world wait later than ever to marry and partner up and have kids, and most have only one or two.
- But then couples typically have the dual challenge of trying to move ahead in their careers while also handling the intense responsibilities of caring for young children.
- Women have vastly greater opportunities in education and work than they did in 1960, which is welcome but also presents new challenges and stresses.

#### *Career-and-Care-Crunch*

#### Ages 45 – 60 the Midlife 'Career-and-Care-Crunch'

- In midlife – ages 45-60 – the crunch years of caring for young children decrease.
- Adults reach their peak career earnings and status in their late 40s and 50s.
- And life can become complicated, as new responsibilities may arise with grandchildren and with aging parents who need more assistance.

### Choose your own adventure!

When you’re thinking about your life insurance needs and protecting and providing, where does a person start?

- **Business Owners** If you’re in business, protect your family — from your business. You can [learn more about that here](https://mail.sapience.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&id=117#different-layers-of-risks-to-manage). (different layers of risks to manage)
- **Wage & Salary Earners**  If you’re receiving a wage from an employer — Learn how to [protect your ability to continue to earn your income](https://mail.sapience.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=207&Itemid=765) (and don’t make the rookie mistake of hoping your super fund default insurance will do that effectively for you).

### What to learn now

1\. Get to know the [Statistical Risks of Life](https://mail.sapience.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=373:the-numbers-of-life&catid=83:blog&Itemid=734) we all face.
2\. Get to know the[ Growing Cost of Modern Medical Care](https://mail.sapience.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=130&filter_tag%5B0%5D=137&filter_tag%5B1%5D=252&Itemid=1043)
3\. Decide how you want to live your life, [when you should use a life insurance policy](https://mail.sapience.com.au/index.php?Itemid=1247), and how much financial risk you and your family are prepared to take
4\. Make a decision today to protect and provide for yourself and those you love and care for — and when you're ready we'd love to help you out with that.

### Why bother?

Sometimes we don’t think about how fast life has changed. We don’t notice how our lives have become more exposed to the unknown and why we need to take more of our own future health and safety into our own hands.

Don’t wait until it’s too late to discover a sudden health issue has now prevented you from being insurable, that your new type of job is considered higher risk and more expensive to protect yourself from and you now ultimately have to carry all the financial risks of life yourself.

 [ 👥 ](#scds-ledger-anchor "View Engagement Compatibility Summary")

## Singles

Relationship status is no indicator of financial responsibility or business skills.

You can be young and starting out or older and established - and both enjoy living the single life.

You might be single, single again, sometimes single, single with kids, single with pets or perhaps something a little more complicated. When it comes to being single in life and business, there is really no such thing as average.

And it is your single life, so live it your way.

> It is hard to prepare for a future you might not have considered yet.

 [ 👥 ](#scds-ledger-anchor "View Engagement Compatibility Summary")

## Partnered

Sharing life and business with someone can be twice as exciting but can bring twice the risks to manage.

You might be partnered, partnered with pets, officially de facto, officially married, splitting expenses but sharing life, or joining incomes and combining financial lives too.

You might be together but living apart, working towards a future with kids, thinking about fostering, adopting, IVF or surrogacy or perhaps something a little more complicated.

When it comes to being partnered in today's modern world, there's really no such thing as average.

> A top priority for a couple is protecting your income and your debts, to reduce the financial impact upon you and your partner if something unexpected happens to you

## Parenting

Parents are in the business of growing healthy young adults. It's a major emotional commitment — and it’s also a financial one.

As your child grows, so will your obligations to help them with their financial needs while balancing your own financial needs — especially because your financial security is vital to theirs. (Juggling chainsaws is easier I believe).

You might be parenting and single, parenting solo, partnered and parenting with kids, (yours, theirs, and ours), dual parents with kids or co-parents. You might be foster parents, adoptive parents, or even adoptive parents of kids with additional needs (just beautiful!).

You might be parenting in a blended family or part of an intergenerational household, a same-sex couple with kids, or someone's family of choice or perhaps something a little more complicated.

When it comes to parenting today there's really no such thing as average.

> You're always a role model for someone - and amazing people don't just happen.
