Term Life Insurance

    By far the most affordable and economical life insurance policy, term life gives you the ability to purchase a large death benefit at a price that almost anyone can afford.
    The premium can be set at a level amount that is guaranteed to NOT increase for a fixed period of years. For most companies those guaranteed level premium periods are:

5-year, 10-year, 15-year, 20-year, 25-year or 30-year

    The higher the guaranteed period is the higher the premium is. The advantage of choosing a long guarantee period is the peace of mind in knowing that this is one expense that can NOT change. Look for an online life insurance quote from covering all of the above premium periods. Check the life insurance company's ratings with A.M. Best (A+ or better) and Standard & Poors (AA or better).

    How much life insurance should you purchase? The rule of thumb is 5 times your income PLUS your net worth. Example: someone with a $100,000 income and a net worth of $500,000 would purchase a $1,000,000 policy. Given the low cost of Term Life Insurance we highly recommend at least a $1,000,000 policy for husband and wife with at least a 20-year level premium.
