What is life insurance? Life insurance is a type of personal insurance that pays out if the insured person dies. It provides peace of mind and financial protection for anyone whose death would cause financial loss by paying a lump sum of money or a regular income to settle financial obligations and replace lost income and revenues. Most personal life insurance policies are bought by people who wish to protect their families from the hardship they would endure if they were to lose their...

A note on employer-provided life insurance Your employer might offer you another option to purchase life insurance. Companies often provide a set amount of life insurance as part of their benefits package. If you decide to take the benefit offered at work, it's still a good idea to review your financial situation and make sure you don't need additional coverage. The coverage amount offered by your employer might not be enough to provide for your dependents long term or pay off debt if something happens to you. What to look for when buying life insurance Especially when shopping independently, be sure to research the life insurance companies behind the offers you're presented with. Key...

When you think of cutting-edge industries, insurance probably doesn't come to mind. But the industry is bucking its stodgy image, and nowhere more so than when it comes to making it simpler to buy life insurance online. Online sales of life insurance were growing even before COVID-19 -- rising from 21 percent in 2016 to 29 percent in 2020, according to insurance research company LIMRA -- but the pandemic has further raised its profile. With face-to-face visits to agents curtailed, and more commerce moving online, even for financial products, the insurance business has been forced to adjust. Life insurance has faced probably the greatest disruption, largely due to its dependence on in-person...

You usually start your career and maybe even a family in your 20s. That’s typically not the time to think about mortality -- particularly life insurance. However, buying life insurance is a vital part of a financial plan, no matter your age. There’s not a better time to get coverage than in your 20s and 30s. Buying life insurance when you’re young gives you more affordable options than in your 40s and 50s. Here’s why -- life insurance companies base rates on age and health. That means if you’re healthier and younger, you pay lower premiums for better death benefits. Matt Schmidt, CEO of Diabetes Life Solutions, said people often don’t realize that buying...

Tips for Buying Life Insurance As in many other professions there is a lot of misinformation being bandied around about life insurance that, if listened to, can make a rather simple decision very complex. Life insurance is basically a very simple subject, a very important subject but also quite simple. You may hear people say they don’t want to talk about it because it is based around your dying before any proceeds are paid out. What rubbish! There is nothing more honourable than to care about the family you love by making provisions so that if you should be taken from them, they could go on living the life you want them to live, even though you can not be there with them personally...

Buying life insurance can be super confusing sometimes especially if you’re not familiar with financial lingo. There are a few things you should know that will help make your buying decision much easier and simpler. 1.) Understand What You’re Buying There are plenty of different types of life insurance products, from term to whole life and universal life.

Can I Buy Life Insurance for Myself? Yes, you can buy life insurance on yourself. This is the most common way life insurance is purchased. But, you don’t actually buy the coverage for yourself, you are the insured person, but the coverage provides a death benefit for someone else, for example, your spouse or child. In order to purchase life insurance on someone you must have an insurable interest in that person. You always have an insurable interest in yourself, and can therefore buy life insurance on your own life. What is Insurable Interest? Insurable Interest: Each individual has an unlimited insurable interest in his or her own life, and therefore can select anyone as a...

Life insurance companies make billions of euro every year. Your friends don’t make billions every year. Life insurance companies are not your friends. Well, maybe your friends are Elon Musk and Bill Gates and they do make billions of euro a year. It doesn’t change the point I’m making though: insurers don’t care about your best interests. Here’s the thing: insurance, in lots of ways, is kind of a tough one. It’s necessary – of course it is – but it doesn’t exactly make you feel great. You’re giving a very rich corporation your hard-earned money so that your family can be financially stable if you die. You’re basically betting on your own death. But, it’s still a necessity. It’s especially a...

I’ve been thinking a lot about life insurance lately. I don’t have a death wish or anything, but I think life insurance is a neglected area of personal finance which requires some Squawkfox attention. Without a proper or adequate life insurance policy, you can leave your dependents in financial disarray if you happen to make an early departure. Life insurance is a funny animal. This is a product which is more often sold than bought. Basically, the insurance industry is based on hefty commissions and perks which renders the policy peddlers biased towards their pocketbooks. This industry is a complex, weird, and wacky business. There are writers, underwriters, sales forces,...
