Term Life Insurance Premium Will Undergo Correction Shortly Term Life Insurance is a kind of life insurance that offers a specific coverage amount for a particular time period. In case of death of the insured during the specified time period while the policy is active, the death benefit is received by the nominee. If the insured dies after the expiry of the specified period, no coverage is paid. Term life insurance is less expensive than permanent life insurance as a term life policy does not have any cash value. As most of the term life insurance policies expire before the need to pay death benefit arises, so the risk associated with these plans is less than permanent plans. This is the...

Modified Premium Term Insurance What is Modified Premium Term Life Insurance Coverage?

Return Premium Term Life Insurance Return premium term life insurance is a new type of term life insurance policy that provides both a death benefit and a return of premium feature within the same policy. It’s easy to understand: If you keep your policy for the full term period, for example 10 or 20 years, at the end of that time the life insurance company that issued the life insurance policy with the return of premium feature returns to you all of the premium that you paid for the insurance policy.

Term life insurance is a fairly pure type of life insurance (no cash values normally, and premiums rise as you get older) intended to cover temporary insurance needs. Temporary doesn’t necessarily mean short term however, as term life insurance can provide coverage to age 65 and beyond.

Another way to look at this is that term insurance coverage is suitable for needs that will likely disappear before your death. Term life insurance is less well...

Our last post introduced you to the basics of life insurance, and whether it is something that you need. Today we will walk you through the difference between term life vs whole life insurance, which are two of the major types of life insurance. The reason we are so fired up about life insurance is because not having it caused our family to have a financial catastrophe. The truth is that when our father was diagnosed with brain cancer at the age of 32, he was one day into his new marriage and wasn’t a good candidate for insurance since he didn’t have financial dependents.
