When is the optimal time to buy life insurance?
When you are healthy and young, life insurance will be at its most affordable. But that is not the only time that it makes sense. When you are getting married, having a child, or have just bought a home, these are all times when buying life insurance may be a good decision. You want to buy it before you need it.
Should I buy whole life or term insurance?
You should probably have both types of life insurance. Term life insurance only lasts for the term of the policy, which can be anywhere from 5 to 30 years. At the end of the term, there is no longer any coverage. Whole life insurance stays with you for your entire life and the premium won’t go up.
Do I need my own life insurance if I get some from my employer?
If you could guarantee that you will never leave this employer, you might not need your own insurance, but no one has that assurance. Your employer could lay you off or close their doors and then what would happen to your life insurance coverage? Who knows? It is always best to be in control of the decisions that affect your life insurance.
