Try as hard as you may to look after your health, drive safely on the road, and safeguard your assets, you simply cannot deny the fact that accidents can happen. Worse still, they strike without prejudice and warning.
That’s why it’s been said time and time again that it’s important to plan ahead and protect yourself and your loved ones with an insurance plan. Yet, us Malaysians continue to come up with excuses not to get insurance.
Sure, there are legitimately good reasons, but there are also these 5 common – and frankly, absolutely-the-worst – reasons that everyone of us should stop using…
I don’t understand lah

Not committing to something that you don’t understand – especially when it involves finances – is wise, but that doesn’t mean you should stop at saying you don’t understand. That’s just being ignorant.
Instead, seek knowledge and understanding from resources on the Internet or a friend.
I don’t like my insurance agent lah

You’re buying insurance for your own good, you don’t need to like your insurance agent. But, if you feel strongly about it, then just ask to be serviced by another agent. You’re the customer and it’s completely within your rights to do so.
See how lah later

Ah, the trademark of every Malaysian. Don’t even try to lie, you say it all the time. It’s our way of not saying “no” but also not saying “yes”. Often times though, it translates to “I’m going to put it off until you – or I – forget about it.”
I am so healthy/careful! Nothing bad will happen lah!

That’s subjective since nobody ever think themselves as being a reckless person. But assuming you really do lead a healthy and cautious lifestyle, it’s still important to realise that everybody can fall sick or get into an accident. When that happens, it may be too late to get yourself covered by insurance.
So, if you’re really as careful as you claim you are, get yourself protected by insurance early on.
No time lah

We get it, you’re a busy person. Work can be pretty demanding for some after all. Totally understand. But no matter how busy you get, we’re 157% sure that you can find some time to look at your smartphone, right?
