Members’ Only Discounts/Benefits
Using the strength of its large membership, PASR has negotiated attractive group rates on a number of products and services. PASR endorses services and products as a value added benefit to its members and does not receive financial compensation for endorsement of any product or service.
The philosophy that has always governed PASR’s endorsement of commercial products is “Any financial benefits that might be derived from extending the PASR’s name to endorse a commercial product must accrue to the individual members who elect to purchase the product, not to the organization.” In short, PASR does not solicit commissions or rebates from the companies it endorses and insists that such considerations be passed on to the individuals in the form of lower prices. We do not endorse to raise monies but to provide an additional service to our membership. Expenses related to marketing of the endorsed programs are typically paid by the companies and not by the association. So, PASR’s endorsements do not cost the association or its members. The following endorsements offer members the opportunity to save—just another way that your PASR membership works on your behalf.

Vehicle and Insurance Discounts
Auto, Home, RV, and Motorcycle Insurance 
Life and Long-Term Care Insurance 
Term life insurance, whole life insurance, universal life insurance, long-term care insurance… The list and combinations seem endless. Do you know which type of policy is right for you? PASR now offers the benefit of a free, personal consultation that can allow for a review of your current policies or a discussion on life insurance and long-term care planning that’s specific to your situation. Here are some thoughts to consider:
Life insurance provides peace of mind. Surviving families are often left in debt, dealing with funeral bills and health care expenses that quickly add up. Proper planning can help your family avoid that added stress. It can also provide financial support for a surviving spouse or jump-start an inheritance that can be passed on to future generations. In the event of a death, a tax-free, lump-sum benefit is paid directly to your chosen beneficiary(ies). PASR has partnered with Grove Financial & Associates (GF&A) to bring you several life insurance options, which feature level premiums for life, access to cash value in times of need, and an easy application process.
When it comes to long-term care insurance, it isn’t always about assisted living facilities and nursing homes. Healthcare has evolved dramatically over the last few decades. This has allowed for longer lifespans and greater physical independence. Sometimes specialized care like a nursing home is necessary, and it’s well known that those costs can be astronomical, but most times our needs are more personal. What if you prefer to receive care at home from a family member or spouse? What if it isn’t physical care that you need, but a modified shower to help getting in and out of the tub easier instead? Or perhaps a modified ramp so you can avoid having to use the steps? With proper long-term care planning, you can be financially prepared for these potential scenarios.
Pet Insurance
PASR offers pet insurance to our members. You already expect the unexpected with your pets, but what about when it comes to their vet bills? The truth is, unexpected vet bills happen more often than you think, and they cost you more than you would care to imagine. Pet insurance can help by assisting you when paying your unexpected vet bills so if your pets have an accident or become ill, your first thoughts can be about their care, not your budget.
Enterprise and National Car Rental Discount 
PASR members can receive a discount on rentals with Enterprise and National by using the loyalty program. With our PASR discount, you can: Bypass the counter at select National locations and choose your own car, Earn Free Rental Days at more than 9,100 National and Enterprise locations worldwide, receive convenient Arrival and Return Alerts, receive E-receipts for faster returns, and maximize your Emerald Club member benefits while still enjoying your PASR discount.
Financial Services
Comprehensive Wealth Management
Shifting and adjusting your financial plans as you navigate retirement can seem daunting. Throughout our working careers, so much of our time is spent on the accumulation and growth of our retirement savings. But entering into retirement – now we’re in a position of having to rely on those savings. This involves a renewed understanding of our financial goals and includes risk management, long-term care planning, distribution planning and legacy planning. As a PASR member, in partnership with Tom Trispagonas of Grove Wealth Management, LLC, these consultation services are available to you at no cost.
“My focus is to offer guidance that’s objective and sensitive to your unique situation. In that regard, I have three goals: clearly identify what you want to achieve financially; generate the necessary income to sustain a lifestyle you deserve; and build a legacy for the ones you love and the things you care about.” – “Tom” Trispagonas, CLTC
Securities and advisory services offered through LPL Financial, a registered investment advisor. Member FINRA/SIPC. PASR, Grove Wealth Management and LPL Financial are separate entities.
Annuities
Fixed annuities are valuable investment options that can provide strong rates of return, preservation of your savings from potential market loss and allow for a supplemental stream of lifetime income. They can play a vital role in your overall retirement planning, but like any other investment, it’s important to discern if such an option is right for you. What is the minimum deposit amount? What rate of return can I expect and how is it calculated? Are there penalties if I need to draw a lump sum at any one time? PASR can help you answer these questions and plan for your financial future.
