There are several factors that can influence the cost of a life insurance policy. Your age, any medical conditions – your own and your family’s medical history – and whether or not you are a tobacco user will probably have the biggest influence on cost. Other factors that impact on the price are your gender, whether or not you are a home owner, your BMI (Body Mass Index) and your occupation. There are other, more obtuse factors that can also affect the cost; for instance any hazardous hobbies, and whether you regularly travel to unusual places. As well as these factors what will ultimately dictate the cost is the type of policy you opt for, the length of the policy and the type...

Despite its status as an advanced industrial nation, the United States has some unusual characteristics. For example, while its health care system is the most expensive in the world, its citizens are neither healthier nor do they live longer than citizens in other countries. In addition, while the U.S. is considered among the safest countries, deaths from gunshot wounds are staggeringly high. In 2000, the U.S. recorded close to 11,000 firearm homicides and more than 16,000 firearm suicides.
