Not only are grant amounts down from governmental agencies, or even gone altogether, but donations from the private sector are also at an all-time low. Shelley Levine, who runs the School Insurance Group division for Bollinger, Inc, sees this, too. Private schools count on large donations from alumni, but they're down, she says.

Nancy Friedman, the world's only Telephone Doctor, called her insurance agent and instructed him to cancel all the policies she had with the agency. What Friedman shared with that agency back in the early 1980s was common sense, she says.

To supplement the in-house instruction and professional development courses Bollinger had provided the customer service reps, Aromando purchased several DVDs from the Telephone Doctor ...

It's better not to wait until the last minute to examine your coverage," said JackWindolf, chief executive officer of Bollinger Inc., an insurance brokerage based in Millburn's Short Hills section. "You want to be sure there are no gaps.
Health-related insurance also matters, said Michael Wells, a disability and longterm care specialist at Cranford's Northeast Planning Corp. "Many buy-sell agreements are funded with life insurance, so surviving business partners can buy out the interest of a deceased individual," he said.

You pay your money and you participate in the activity. Because of your active participation, you also increase the chances that injuries may occur. The types of risks that fall under this category range from amusement rides to golf courses, paintball centers to trail rides.
