Popped the Question Over Valentine’s Day? Insure Your Rock & Ring!

Engagement Ring Insurance Las Vegas NV

Find out if you should protect your shiny, new addition!

Congratulations! Many couples choose to get engaged on the most romantic day of the year (ahem, Valentine’s Day) and celebrate their love and commitment for each other. It’s known that engagement ring sales hike up during the most wonderful time of the year. If you, or your loved one, now sports a prized ring on that certain finger from the Christmas or Valentine’s proposal, you’ll want to ensure that the rock is protected!

This year, say ‘I Do’ to engagement ring insurance! When purchasing the ring and budgeting for the big day, many brides and grooms-to-be overlook wedding and engagement ring insurance. Of course, that’s easy to do when planning for the big day! You have the dress, suits, flowers, venue, ceremony, favors, DJ, photographer and more to think about… What were we talking about? Right! Should you lose, misplace, damage, or have your precious ring stolen, valuable insurance can cover these repair and replacement costs!

For most young couples, engagement rings are among the most valuable items they own. Insurance can protect you from facing huge expenses (and an awkward conversation with your fiancé!) should your ring get damaged or lost.

I Do Take Thee Insurance
Dig for that receipt for the ring to tell your insurer the value of your precious piece which, in turn, allows for sufficient coverage to be applied.

If you’ve had your engagement or wedding ring for a while now, get it appraised! Don’t go on what you or your fiancé purchased it for! Precious metals and precious stones increase in value over time.

Runaway Insurance
Ring insurance can be purchased as an extension (or a “rider”) for your renters or homeowners insurance policy. However, these policies will only cover up to a certain limit. If your ring exceeds this limit, additional insurance will have to be purchased. This can then cover your ring if it’s lost, damaged, or stolen. For an extra couple of bucks a month, increasing your personal items coverage is worth its weight in gold!

Meatless Monday Recipe

This veggie lasagna dish steals the spotlight!

Meatless Monday is an international movement, encouraging people everywhere to cut out meat for at least one day a week for personal and planetary health! Not only does it benefit the environment, animals, and our health, but it allows us to truly get creative and enjoy different vegetables, pastas, proteins, and more!

If you’re looking for a better Meatless Monday dinner than tomato soup and salad, try this zucchini lasagna!

Gather up:

  • 6 lasagna noodles
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cans (6 ounces each) tomato paste
  • 2-1/2 teaspoons each dried thyme, basil, and oregano
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 medium zucchini, thinly sliced
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 carton (15 ounces) part-skim ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:

  1. Cook noodles according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, saute onion in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in the water, tomato paste, and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
  2. Place zucchini in a large saucepan; add 1/2 in. water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside. In a small bowl, combine egg and ricotta cheese.
  3. Drain noodles. Place 1/2 cup tomato sauce in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray; top with three noodles. Layer with half of the ricotta mixture and zucchini. Top with half of the remaining tomato sauce and 1 cup mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers.
  4. Cover and bake at 375° for 25 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake 5-10 minutes longer or until bubbly. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.

Better Your Heart During National Heart Month!

Posted on by TheSph3r3
Heart Month

The month of February is American Heart Awareness Month – Improve your heart health today!

It is known that heart disease is the leading cause of death for men and women in the United States. Every year, 1 in 4 deaths is caused by this condition. The good news is that heart disease can often be prevented when people make healthy choices and manage their health conditions.

Communities, health professionals, and families can work together to create opportunities for people to make healthier choices and better their lifestyles.

Time To Improve Your Health
Nationally, this month is dedicated to raising awareness about heart disease and the ways in which people can prevent it, both at home and in the community. Families, teachers, and doctors are all encouraged to promote better health choices to influence heart health, and here are just a few:

Eat your way to better health:

  • Choose foods low in saturated fat, trans fat, and sodium. Use seasonings instead of salt.
  • Reduce your consumption of red meat.
  • Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, nuts and seeds.
  • Go vegetarian or cut back on meat a few times a week.
  • Cut out all sugary beverages.

Get active!

  • Exercise at least half an hour each day
  • Squeeze in cardio-intense workouts (jogging, running) and muscle-strengthening activities!

During this month, take the initiative to improve your health and heart while spreading awareness to those around you! In addition, secure your life insurance to protect yourself and your loved ones when you’re no longer able to do so.

Benefits to Keep Your Employees Happy!

Posted on by TheSph3r3

Job satisfaction can benefit your employees and business!

Many employers recognize the importance of job satisfaction when it comes to finding (and retaining!) talented workers.

Competitive salaries, compelling work, and a positive work environment are big drivers of the happiness factor, but benefits take the cake when it comes to retaining employees. When an individual is wrestling with the decision between two jobs, they’re more likely to take the job with benefits that can aid themselves and their family. Hence, offering strong benefits as well as voluntary benefits can be the difference between recruiting a key member of staff and losing them to your competition.

If you’ve found a great team and hit reliable finances, finding the best benefits for your company’s niche will only strengthen your business.

The Basics:
As a general consensus, to attract and retain talent, entrepreneurs should offer health insurance, some life and disability insurance, and probably a retirement savings plan. In addition, dental and vision coverage should usually be included as the cost is low but the payoff for the employees is high. All of these coverages are valued by employees!

The Most Sought-After Benefits:

  • Healthcare
  • Retirement
  • Paid time off
  • Wellness programs
  • Tuition reimbursement
  • Flexible and family-friendly schedules
  • Pay raise or performance bonuses available
  • Life insurance
  • Telecommuting
  • Workplace perks (snacks, paid lunches, ping pong table, pool table, couches/outdoor working spaces)
  • Professional development and training

While all of these, especially specialty benefits, may not be attainable for your company to provide, they can help your business to become an Employer of Choice. If you’re not sure where to start, ask your employees what they value in benefits and compensation. The answer might surprise you!
