There are a few things in life that genuinely get better with age wine, friendships, and your Spotify algorithm. But when it comes to life insurance? Sooner is definitely better. If you're in your 20s or 30s thinking, “Life insurance? That’s for people with a will and a weekend garden,” you're not alone. But here's the catch the longer you wait to get cover, the more it’s likely to cost. And by the time you feel old enough for it, you’ll be paying extra for the delay.

Would you rather pay more now or later? That’s the excess question! It’s like buying a new TV on credit—you could pay it off in small monthly installments (but end up paying way more in the long run) or pay upfront and be done with it. When it comes to car insurance, the logic works in reverse: pay more now with higher premiums and have a smaller excess when you claim, or pay less each month and be prepared to fork out some hard-earned cash when something goes wrong.

Running a business isn’t just about grinding, hustling, and making deals. It’s about protecting what you’ve built. Whether you’re a one-person operation, a growing startup, or the head of a small-but-mighty empire, your business is an asset worth safeguarding.
