Richard Salgado Selects National Life As Life Insurance Provider

 

Montpelier, Vermont – Richard “Big Daddy” Salgado, who has built a business helping professional athletes get the insurance coverage they need, has selected National Life Group as his firm’s life insurance provider.

 

Salgado was a standout football player at the University of Maryland who went on to become featured by sports broadcasts such as NFL Network, FOX Sports, FOX Business Network and ESPN’s NFL Live. He is a Super Bowl Correspondent for Fox and Friends, and has been featured in Sports Business Journal, Sports Illustrated and the Wall Street Journal. And he has been featured by Fox News Channel, The World with Neil Cavuto, Good Morning with Maria Bartiromo and Stuart Varney.

 

Salgado now runs Coastal Advisors, LLC in New York and he counts among his clients many active and retired NFL players, as well as professional hockey and baseball players. His is a familiar face on the sidelines of pro football games throughout the season.

 

Coastal Advisors, LLC sells several lines of insurance and Salgado has chosen to make National Life his exclusive life insurance provider.

 

“We’re delighted to welcome Rich to the National Life family,” said Mehran Assadi, Chairman, CEO and President of National Life Group. “That’s because Rich shares our vision of a business that’s mission-driven and purpose-filled. He has a cause, just as we do.”

 

One of the causes that Salgado supports is raising money for the North Shore-Long Island Jewish Medical Center’s Brain Aneurysm Center in Manhasset, N.Y., which benefits from an annual golf tournament he sponsors.

 

Christopher Muro, Managing Partner of Players Protection Group, LLC, will be partnering with Salgado in their efforts to bring peace of mind to players and their families, which is crucial in the modern sports era where player safety and security is key.  Muro will accomplish this through retirement planning services and offering permanent life insurance benefits.
