Reevaluating Your FEGLI
Remember to take in consideration the diferences between FEGLI and private life insurance, emphasizing that the best choice depends on individual circumstances. There is the option to increase FEGLI after certain life events, but we also suggest evaluating the cost and value of private life insurance. We want to highlight the importance of regularly assessing one's insurance needs and adjusting policies accordingly.

My One Non Negotiable Point
In federal workshops, it is crucial that the individual assisting with retirement planning comprehends Federal benefits to avoid costly mistakes common with generalists lacking specific expertise. We emphasize the necessity of seeking help from professionals with experience in dealing with federal employees to leverage insider knowledge and maximize benefits through various "hacks." My non-negotiable advice stresses the significance of understanding Federal benefits when crafting a retirement plan, highlighting the potential pitfalls of relying on generalists unfamiliar with the intricacies of federal employment.
