The famous saying teaches that if you fail to plan, then you plan to fail. But, even a properly thought out plan sometimes faces challenges by unplanned circumstances that could cause you to lose all your lifelong investments.
Whether you say, “God forbid, Is not my portion” or, “Lai-lai, e no fit happen to me” that doesn’t change the reality which is that terrible things still occur even though we don’t intend them to happen.
For this purpose, future-forward entrepreneurs register insurance companies to safeguard their properties against accidental losses or destruction.
