Episode 127: License to Shop, Not to Drop: An Honest Look at Insurance with Broc Buckles

September 28, 2026·1h 5m
Episode Description from the Publisher

Insurance is one of those parts of financial planning that most people would rather not think about, but getting it wrong can have a much bigger impact than choosing the wrong investment. It's not particularly exciting, and ideally you'll never need to use it, but the right coverage can provide the foundation that allows the rest of a financial plan to work as intended. In today's episode, we're dissecting the role insurance plays in financial planning with Broc Buckles, co-founder of BC Brokerage. Listen in to learn how umbrella liability coverage works, why disability insurance costs vary based on occupation and risk, how underwriting can differ for military and other higher-risk professions, and how the long-term care insurance market has changed.  Access the full show notes at Mason & Associates, LLC Resources Mentioned: Broc Buckles: LinkedIn BC Brokerage FEFP: Why Federal Employees Can't Afford to Ignore Insurance with Broc Buckles (EP98) Mason & Associates: LinkedIn  John Mason: LinkedIn Tommy Blackburn: LinkedIn
