Don’t Leave Your Family’s Financial Independence To Chance

Don’t Leave Your Family’s Financial Independence to Chance

In the past times, families were larger, often with brothers and their families living together in one house. Relatives lived nearby, and neighbours were more like extended family than just acquaintances. In such a scenario, tiding over a medical or financial crisis was relatively easy as the entire society consisting of friends, relatives, well-wishers etc would chip in and help the one affected.

Nowadays, nuclear families are more common, resulting in smaller family units. Each family becomes somewhat isolated, as neighbours are unfamiliar, and friends are preoccupied with their own lives. Relatives might be living far away in distant towns. If a medical or financial crisis were to arise today, it could be more challenging for the family to handle on their own.

A Crisis

Ironically, in earlier times, you relied on relatives for assistance, yet this reliance still maintained a sense of autonomy, as you could repay the borrowed money on your own terms. However, imagine facing an unexpected death or a sudden critical illness – how would you or your family manage the finances? You might tap into your savings, seek short-term loans from local moneylenders, or even pawn valuable assets like gold. This would erode your financial self-sufficiency and that of your family.

If you were to pass away, your spouse would be left grappling with not only your loss but also the challenge of making ends meet. The grieving process might be compromised due to immediate financial worries.
