What is life insurance?

In the simplest terms, life insurance is a way to financially protect your family or business after you die. It’s a contract with an insurance company, in which you pay a premium, and in exchange, they agree to pay a set amount upon your death to the named beneficiary.

Why do you need life insurance?

When you purchase a life insurance policy, you are taking an important step to ensure your family and loved ones are cared for financially when you aren’t there to protect them. Life insurance provides financial peace of mind knowing your loved ones will not be burdened with expenses related to medical services, funeral and burial expenses, or other outstanding debts. It allows them to maintain their current standard of living. Life insurance can also help them pursue the things you want for them, like college tuition, opening or maintaining a business, or paying off a mortgage.

What is the best life insurance policy for me?

The amount of life insurance needed will vary from person to person. Professional financial planners estimate that you should have between eight and 10 times your income as a rule of thumb. But, ultimately, it depends on the amount of money you’d like your family to receive in the event of your passing. To easily determine how much that is, you can calculate the cost of your life insurance needs with our Life Insurance Calculator.
