How much term life insurance should you buy? How much will it cost? The cost and amount will depend on what you can afford, what you need and why you are buying it. A 30 year old buying a home with his wife and two children, will have a very different life insurance plan than a businessman investing for retirement.
LIFE INSURANCE CALCULATORS
There are different life insurance calculators that can help you roughly determine what levels of coverage to purchase, but the best technique for finding the right limit for you is to talk to a life insurance broker. Most websites suggest in nearly every article they write about life insurance, that you should discuss your financial outlook and needs with a licensed life insurance broker who can give you personalized advice.
LIFE INSURANCE COSTS
Life insurance costs depend on several factors. If you are buying term life insurance coverage, which protects you during a set period of time, you'll spend less. But you don't see any of the money back unless you die, which means only your family will benefit from it. However, this might be your best option if you don't have a lot of money and/or are investing separately from your life insurance.
LIFE INSURANCE SALESMEN DRIVE ME CRAZY
We don't think you need to see a salesman, at least until you are well prepared. Term life insurance is always the cheapest, until the older ages. Apart from whole life with dividends, where you can build up a bank of money, we feel the best deal for your money is always a term life insurance policy.
