What is life insurance?

Life insurance is a contract in which a policyholder pays premiums in exchange for a lump-sum death benefit that may be paid to the policyholder's beneficiaries. The lump-sum benefit is paid when the policyholder either passes away or a specific amount of time has passed. Life insurance policies can help provide financial security by replacing lost income and covering expenses.

What are the different types of life insurance?

There are different kinds of life insurance policies, each meeting different needs. The section below illustrates the difference between term life, whole life, and universal life insurance.

What is Term Life Insurance?

Term life insurance covers a specific time period and provides financial help to the beneficiary. Often this money is used to replace income that's lost due to the death of the insured. The benefit can help pay bills, future expenses, and even burial costs. A term life insurance policy may be eligible for a No-Med Exam, which is an option that asks a detailed questionnaire instead of requiring a medical exam.

What is Whole Life Insurance?

If the policy terms are met, then whole life insurance typically covers your lifetime and pays a benefit to the beneficiary upon the death of the insured. This policy may help with income replacement, supplemental income, and estate planning.

What is Universal Life Insurance?

Universal life insurance typically covers your lifetime. It offers an optional fund that you can contribute to above and beyond your regular life insurance. The side cash fund can build over time. Please note that universal life premiums can fluctuate.

What is the best life insurance policy for me?

  • Main breadwinner
  • Stay at home parent

  • What is the purpose of having life insurance?
    Life insurance provides financial security and peace of mind for your loved ones when they need it most. It ensures that your family's financial obligations, such as mortgage payments, educational expenses, and daily living costs, are covered even in your absence. There are three types of life insurance: Term life insurance, whole life insurance, and universal life insurance.
  • At what age should you get life insurance?
    While there's no specific age that's "perfect" for getting life insurance, the younger you are, the more affordable the premiums tend to be. Starting early ensures that you lock in lower rates and protect your loved ones sooner. Life insurance can benefit just about everyone, especially people who have others depending on them. Learn who insurance will benefit and how it fits into life's different stages.
  • What do I need to consider before buying life insurance?

Check out these 5 tips to help you pick the right life insurance for you.
  • How often should I review my life insurance policy?
    It's recommended that you review your life insurance policy annually or whenever you experience major life events such as marriage, the birth of a child, or a significant change in your financial situation. This ensures that your coverage remains relevant and adequate.
  • Why should I buy my own life insurance policy?
    Buying your own life insurance policy provides control and flexibility. Policies through work may be limited, and you might lose coverage if you change jobs. An individual policy ensures consistent coverage regardless of your employment status. There are many benefits of purchasing your own life insurance policy including tax benefits and reliability.
  • Should I wait to buy life insurance?
    Delaying life insurance can be risky as unforeseen events can occur at any age. Moreover, premiums tend to rise with age and health issues. Purchasing coverage while you're young and healthy can lead to lower rates and long-term financial security.
  • If I have life insurance through work, do I need an additional policy?
    While employer-provided life insurance is beneficial, it's often limited and may not be sufficient to cover all your family's needs. Having an additional personal policy ensures you have adequate coverage, even if you switch jobs or retire.
  • Are there affordable options for life insurance?
    Yes, there are various affordable life insurance options available. Term life insurance, for example, often provides a cost-effective solution for coverage over a specific period, making it accessible for many individuals and families.
