Young Families: Protecting Your Dreams

When Sarah mentioned her concerns over coffee, it was a conversation I've had many times before. "We've got a big mortgage, the kids are young, and I lie awake at night wondering: what if something happens to one of us?"

The Young Family Squeeze

Today's Australian families face unique pressures our parents never encountered. We're buying homes later, with larger mortgages that often rely on two incomes. Then children arrive, and suddenly one parent reduces their work hours. The mortgage that felt manageable becomes a source of stress, while education costs climb and building a savings buffer feels impossible.

Could your family maintain mortgage payments on one income? Would your partner need to increase work hours if you weren't there? How would you manage financially if either parent needed long-term care? These aren't comfortable questions, but they're essential ones.

Real Protection for Real Families

James and Emma* are typical of my clients:

• Both 35 with two children under 8

• $750,000 mortgage based on combined income

• Emma working part-time since returning to work

• James running a small business

• Limited savings after recent home upgrade

We created a protection strategy that included:

• Life Insurance to clear the mortgage and provide ongoing support

• Income Protection to maintain their lifestyle if either couldn't work

• Trauma Insurance for serious illness coverage

• TPD Insurance for permanent disability protection

Plus, essential estate planning with a trusted lawyer for complete family protection.

Emma's words: "For the first time in years, I sleep soundly knowing our family is protected."
