Time really flies and there are just too many signs that I am growing older. Today, I received a letter from Great Eastern Life to inform me that they have paid me $4,000. The last payment took place three years ago but it sure doesn't feel like it. It feels like only a few months ago. Three years just went by so quickly. I have quite a few simple endowment plans and this is one of two regular premium endowment plans. The rest are single premium endowment plans. These days, I don't think we can find such simple endowment plans anymore or at least that is what people tell me. It is the era of ILPs now. It is really strange how things are mixed up these days but there is a reason why things are strangely mixed up, isn't there?...
