1st Life Offers A Degree Of Prudence With The 1st Scholar while sending kids to college is one big budget breaker for most Filipino families, education comes high on the list of priorities for our working dads and moms. Most parents believe that being able to provide for a proper education to their children is one way of building a legacy for the next generation.

Against the backdrop of tuition hikes, increasing education expenses, and the next school opening, 1st Life introduces a new policy that will help parents ensure the future career of their children.

Understanding the need to help the young be more prepared for life, 1st Life recently launched the 1st Scholar, a college education plan that combines life insurance and an investment fund.

The 1st Scholar provides coverage to the young brood from ages 0-9 with a guaranteed payment period of only five years. With the scheme, devoted parents will be able to save for junior's college degree way ahead plus the convenience of short-term installments that will prove easy on the family budget.

Careful planning with the 1st Scholar will provide important funds for college education at age 16. Benefits also include an allowance equivalent to one percent of the sum insured to help defray the cost of books, literary materials and references. Most of all, parents will have the added bonus that will give their children the protection they need with the life insurance coverage until age 23 that comes along with the fund.

Another issue of the policy is the 1st Scholar Plus that offers a financial solution to help save for high school with college education. With the savings forethought of 1st Scholar, the future career of the youth will definitely have the financial backing it deserves.
