Types of Life Insurance Policies

When buying life insurance, you can select from two main policy types: term life and whole life. Many younger people start out purchasing term life because it tends to be less costly. With this policy, you are insured for the face value until the term is up, as long as you make the premium payments. For example, you could take out a policy for $100,000 when you are 28. Twenty years later, the policy would expire if it goes unused. This makes it an ideal type of insurance to start out with, but you will want to later purchase a longer term life policy or purchase a whole life policy to augment it so you never run out of insurance.

A whole life policy is an excellent solution because it does not have a set expiration date like a term life policy. As long as you continue to make your premium payments, you will be insured. It also serves as an investment vehicle. Your whole life policy can accumulate cash value that you can use as needed. While not a savings account since you need to pay back what you withdraw, you can use it to pay for unexpected medical bills, buy something special, or get you out of a jam. The versatility of a whole life policy makes it a favorite among our Inman, South Carolina clients.
