119) List and describe the four steps in developing a personal insurance program.
STEP 1: SET INSURANCE GOALS
In managing risks, your goals are to minimize personal, property, and liability risks. Your insurance goals should define what to do to cover the basic risks present in your life situation.
Each individual has unique goals. Income, age, family size, lifestyle, experience, and responsibilities influence the goals you set, and the insurance you buy must reflect those goals.
STEP 2: DEVELOP A PLAN TO REACH YOUR GOALS
Planning is a way of taking control of life instead of letting life happen to you. What risks do you face? Which risks can you afford to take without having to back away from your goals? What resources—public programs, personal assets, family, church, or private risk-sharing plans—are available to you?
STEP 3: PUT YOUR PLAN INTO ACTION
As you carry out your plan, obtain financial and personal resources, budget them, and use them to reach risk management goals.
The best risk management plans have flexibility to allow you to respond to changing life situations.
STEP 4: REVIEW YOUR RESULTS
Evaluate your insurance plan periodically, at least every two or three years or whenever your family circumstances change.
