Forget Me Not Days

At Bankers Life, our insurance agents and associates witness firsthand the impact that Alzheimer’s and dementia have on our customers, their families and their caregivers. That’s why we established Bankers Life Forget Me Not Days®, our nationwide fundraising campaign to benefit the Alzheimer’s Association®. This June marks the 23rd anniversary of the campaign. Since 2003, we’ve helped raise more than $7.8 million for the Alzheimer’s Association through the Forget Me Not Days campaign and corporate donations.

    Ross is our guy! He and Danny Lai have gone the extra mile for us. We don't understand all the ins and outs of investments and/or medicare plans. They explain in layman's terms, look out for our best interests, and protect our future for us. We are thrilled and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a "finance guy". Thanks so much, Ross and Danny!

Should You Reevaluate Your 2025 Investment Strategy?
It’s common for investors, especially those in or near retirement, to pause and consider whether their financial approach still aligns with their goals. If the market feels shaky, then it becomes even more important to do so.
