48: David Silverman With Aflac Insurance Sep 04, 2020

Joining me for today’s episode is David Silverman with Aflac to talk about insurance products he offers for gigworkers, digital nomads, entrepreneurs, travelers, parents, and many others. A common concern I hear is that people think they need a traditional job to have insurance, but many options outside employers are available. Even for those who are working a traditional job, Dave has many options for you...and you can use a credit card to pay insurance premiums and pay in advance to hit signup bonuses or high spend goals depending on the type of insurance.
