Life Insurance

It’s important to understand the different types of life insurance available, as each one serves different needs.

Here’s a breakdown of term life, whole life, and final expense life insurance:

Term Life Insurance

  • Duration: This type covers you for a specific period, typically ranging from 10 to 30 years.
  • Cost: Generally, it has lower premiums than whole life insurance because it’s temporary.
  • Coverage: It’s designed to protect your dependents financially if you pass away during the term. Often used to cover items like mortgages, education, or income replacement.
  • Features: No cash value component, meaning you cannot borrow against it or use it as an investment.
  • ROP option: This rider can be added and will provide you with a return of all premiums paid.

Whole Life Insurance

  • Duration: It covers you for your entire life, as long as you keep paying the premiums.
  • Cost: Premiums are higher compared to term life but remain consistent throughout your life.
  • Coverage: It provides a death benefit and also builds cash value that you can borrow against or withdraw.
  • Features: Combines insurance with an investment component. The cash value grows over time, and some policies even pay dividends.

Final Expense Life Insurance (also a whole life product)

  • Duration: Typically, lifelong coverage aimed at covering end-of-life expenses.
  • Cost: Generally, it has lower coverage amounts and lower premiums compared to whole life insurance.
  • Coverage: The primary goal is to cover funeral and burial costs, medical bills, or other final expenses, usually between $5,000 to $25,000.
  • Features: Often easier to qualify for, with simplified or no medical exam required. Designed for older individuals looking to ensure their end-of-life expenses are covered.
