About this listen
You’re paying a lot for your insurance plans—often six figures a year—but for what exactly?
Too many high-performing Filipino professionals are overpaying for underpowered coverage: a thick stack of policies with high fees, unnecessary riders, and vague benefits. Premiums add up fast, while the actual protection can be thin, redundant, or misaligned with your life today.
In Episode 2 of the Optimization Deep Dives series, we add the defense layer: insurance—so your plan is protected without bloated premiums quietly stealing from bigger goals.
This episode walks you through the same insurance audit we use with clients to make cost finally match coverage—with a simple, executive-level process that replaces confusion with clarity.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why insurance “policy clutter” happens to high earners over time
- Beacon’s lens: Minimum Effective Coverage (pay only for protection that moves the outcome)
- The 3 rules that keep your setup honest:
- Separate protection from investing
- Judge by coverage per peso (Benefit-to-Premium Ratio)
- Plan first, product last
- The 5-step Insurance Audit you can run in one focused session:
Gather → Map → Check → Decide → Estimate & Reallocate - How to label policies Green / Amber / Red (Keep / Upgrade / Drop)—plus the safety rule before any exit
