Keep Up With Yourself

MEN

EN who forge ahead in business raise their standards of living; their wants increase. But too often, the amount of life insurance remains the same. Should the inevitable happen, the widow and children must effect a drąstic cut in their scale of living

Keep up with yourself-don't let your life insurance fall below a safe ratio to your family's living expenses.
