Will this happen to your family? It won't if you plan now - with Living Insurance from Equitable. That way, Call someone you love long distance. Yourvoice will be music to their ears. you can help make sure your family will have the necessary cash to meet estate obligations. And, they'll receive the full value of your estate.

Here are a few easy ways to do that: • Make sure your home is properly insulated. • Keep your thermostat at 68° in winter and 78° in summer. • Use dishwashers and clothes dryers only when you have a full load . • Conserve hot water. • Turn off TVs, radios, stereos, and lights when not in use. A few simple rules, but following them makes good sense.
