Term Life Insurance Digest

The LIFE Foundation is a non-profit organization trying to spread the word about the importance of life insurance.  Their main goal is to help the masses understand the importance of life insurance and the very real effect it can have on people’s lives.  They have many videos that they use to do this which can be seen on their YouTube channel.  There are also many organizations that belong to the LIFE Foundation.  These companies, carriers, and agencies help fund the efforts of the foundation, and a list of them can be seen on this page.  When looking for a carrier or agency to work with or purchase from, I suggest using one of the carriers or agencies listed on this page, as they obviously really care about life insurance and are trying to do more than just profit from the sale of it.

If you are looking for information about cash value and life insurance, I suggest checking out the information available at WholesaleInsurance.net.  Specifically, they have great articles about all different types of life insurance and other information having to do with life insurance.  Their cash value article does a great job explaining what it means and how it works.

You will also see that cash value is available in most types of permanent life insurance, including universal, variable, and whole life insurance.  Some information relating to cash value and those different types of insurance will also be available on their website.

I found this site for an agent in Lake Tahoe.  It looks like he can help with health and dental insurance, and also appears to be able to help with life insurance as well.  If you want, you can compare life insurance rates directly from his site.

I’ve never met the agent, but I like his website.

Life insurance is a little bit different than auto or homeowner’s insurance.  Auto and homeowner’s insurance premiums can fluctuate based on the city and zip code in which you live.  Life insurance premiums, on the other hand, are determined by state.

While searching for an online agency that represents all 50 states, I found the following list of states at Wholesale Insurance.

By looking at this page, you’ll see that they can help anyone that lives in these states.  They also provide a long list of the cities in which they can provide life insurance.  Take a look at the California cities, Florida cities, Texas cities, or New York cities.  You’ll also see that they have lists for Illinois, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, and all of the other 50 U.S. states.

Insurance is a financial product that is used to protect against certain types of risk.  Different types of insurance cover different types of risk.

Life insurance, for example, protects you against the risk that you might die.  Auto insurance protects against the risk of a car accident or other damage to your vehicle or damage caused by your vehicle.  Homeowner’s insurance protects your home.

In most instances, people get insurance to cover things that could happen, but that won’t necessarily happen.  Even life insurance, which is to cover death and everyone dies, is normally purchased during a time in your life when you have a low likelihood of dying.

With insurance, many people pay into a pot so that the few who experience the problem can benefit from the premiums of the larger group.

Everyone who participates in insurance benefits.  Whether its peace of mind, protection, or financial reimbursement, everyone who buys insurance gets something out of it.

If you are looking for a good Christmas gift for your wife, try considering term life insurance.  Term life insurance is a great gift for your loved ones.  It gives them piece of mind.  They’ll know that if something happens to you, you’ll still be there taking care of them.  It’s a wonderful way to leave behind a beautiful legacy.

If you have major medical issues or fear that you won’t be able to get good rates on your life insurance, then you should make sure you speak with a high risk life insurance specialist.  The people at Wholesale Insurance have tons of experience dealing with high risk life insurance.  So if you want to make sure you get the best possible rates for life insurance, give them a call.

If you are a senior, it’s important to understand something about senior life insurance quotes.  Like all life insurance quotes, a senior life insurance quote is not guaranteed (unless it’s a guaranteed issue product; but most policies are not).  When you receive your quote, you should know that there is a chance the quoted rate will change after the underwriting process has taken place.  If you want to make sure your quote doesn’t change, then you need to make sure you have a life insurance agent that is very familiar with all of the underwriting guidelines of the companies that he works with.  Even then, health issues may come up during underwriting that he or she couldn’t have known about.  But the more well-versed your agent is, the more likely your quoted senior life insurance rates won’t change.

I recently took a continuing education course on life insurance.  One of the first things I learned was about the introduction of universal and variable universal life insurance products into the life insurance marketplace.

Up until that time, all of the available products (term life insurance and whole life insurance) were based completely on the premiums, and had very little flexibility.  When universal life insurance was introduced, all of a sudden life insurance policies had more flexbility.

With universal life insurance you can change your death benefit and also the amount of premiums you are going to pay.  You can use your accumulated cash value to borrow against it or to supplement your premium payments.  Overall, a universal life insurance policy provides the opportunity to have much more flexibility with your life insurance.

What is term life insurance?

Term life insurance is the simplest form of life insurance protection.  It is also the cheapest.  It covers you for a specific term period (hence the name ‘term’ life insurance).  It has a guaranteed price that will not change during the guaranteed term.

So, if you purchase a 20 year term life insurance policy at 25$ a month, then the price each month for 20 years will be 25$.  At the end of the 20 years the policy will continue if you continue to pay the premiums.  However, the price will begin to go up each year–and it will go up dramatically.

At that point it’s good to either get a new term policy, convert to a universal policy, or purchase a new universal or whole life policy.

Term life insurance is a great option for young family’s, people with mortgages, and businesses with key employees.  It’s a good option if you only need coverage for a certain period of time.
