Is Term Life Insurance for You? Term insurance is the simplest form of life insurance. It provides temporary life insurance protection on a limited budget. Here’s how it works: When a policyholder buys term insurance, he or she buys coverage for a specific period and pays a specific price for that coverage. If the policyholder dies during that time, his or her beneficiaries receive the benefit from the policy. If he or she outlives the term of the policy, it is no longer in effect.

Term insurance is often a good choice for people in their family-formation years, especially if they’re on a tight budget, because it allows them to buy high levels of coverage when the need for protection is often greatest. Term insurance is also a good option...

The value of a good life insurance policy is undeniably large, with a standard term or whole-life policy offering financial protection and a stress-free transition for your family, your close friends and partners, and your loved ones during an otherwise unfortunate and very difficult time. As such, it’s not an investment that should be taken lightly. While life insurance companies appear to have made it their mission to sell to anyone and everyone – including, funnily enough, a sizable portion of young individuals that don’t need their services – there’s...
