There are two basic types of life insurance: term and permanent. Each should be considered carefully to determine which best fits your individual needs.

Some of the reasons to purchase term insurance:

  • Initial lower cost - Premiums are lower during the early years of coverage.
  • The need for insurance isn't permanent - Term lasts for a limited, pre-determined number of years. Term and been commonly called "Time Insurance" because it provides for specific, short-term needs.
  • It is convertible - You may have the option to switch the policy to permanent coverage without having to show evidence of good health.

Some of the reasons to purchase permanent insurance:

  • Level premiums - Premium payments can remain the same; in later years, premiums are lower than term.
  • The need for insurance is permanent - Properly funded, coverage can last a lifetime.
  • To provide an access source of funds - Permanent insurance accumulates cash value that can be used for emergencies, college education, or to supplement retirement income. This is commonly called "Living Benefits."
  • Tax-advantages - Properly funded and structured, a permanent insurance policy can provide a tax-free income stream and tax-deferred walth accumulation.
