Here are some commonly asked questions regarding
insurance.  Please feel free to

Why should I purchase Life Insurance now?
Because you are young and healthy and you can qualify for the least
expensive premiums.  Premiums increase as you get older and if you
develop an illness you may become uninsurable.  

What are some of the reasons to buy life insurance?
    (a) Life insurance can replace income lost to surviving family
    members upon the death of the wage earner.

    (b) Creating an inheritance for your loved ones.

    (c) Life insurance can be used to fund funeral and burial
    expenses, probate and other estate costs, debts and medical
    expenses that a person may accrue prior to death.

    (d) Life insurance proceeds can be used to pay off mortgages.

    (e) Life insurance proceeds can be used to pay estate taxes so
    that heirs will not be forced to liquidate other assets.

    (f) Donation to charity by making the charity a beneficiary of a life
    insurance policy.

    (g) Business continuation in the event of the death of an owner or
    a key person.

    (h) To protect a partnership or corporation, if an owner dies.

    (i) To fund a Special Needs Trusts for a disabled person.

I’m not married, have no children, and have no responsibility why do I
need insurance?
Right now you might not; but why not plan for your future now while you
are young and healthy.

How does life insurance affect my future pension?
Taking a pension option could cost you as much as 20% of your
pension.  Life insurance allows you to take your full pension while
leaving your family and children with the financial security they need
.
For example:
                        












  1. In case 1, Spouse is not protected.  When Retiree dies pension
    ends.
  2. In case 2, Retiree loses $8,000 annually to protect Spouse for
    the same $32,000 annually.  Should Spouse predecease the
    Retiree.  The financial loss in 20 years will be $160,000.
  3. In case 2 or 3, not only does Retiree lose a significant amount of
    money, but the pension ends on the death of the Retiree and
    Spouse.

Provided that Retiree is in good health, the alternative to taking a lower
pension is to secure the Spouse and children/grandchildren through a
life insurance policy.  The Retiree takes his full pension and purchases
a life insurance policy.  Why you may ask?  Life insurance is much less
expensive than giving up a part of the pension.  Life insurance proceeds
are tax free.  Life insurance proceeds can be invested and Spouse will
continue to get an annual benefit and principal sum can be passed on to
children and grandchildren.

I already have group life insurance with my employer.  Why do I need
an individual policy?
Premiums for insurance through the job or corporate are based on all
participants no matter the age, no matter the health status, including
smokers, those that are overweight, those with high cholesterol, or
possibly worse health issues.  Therefore, your premiums are much
higher than purchasing an individual policy based SOLELY on your age
and your health status.  

Should you ever purchase Group Life Insurance?
Yes, but only if your health is so bad that you cannot purchase an
individual policy.  If you wait until you become sick, you may not qualify for
an individual policy, or it may be cost prohibitive for you to purchase it.  
Purchasing an individual policy while you are young and healthy will
protect you from having to rely on an insufficient group plan.

Can Group rates increase?
Absolutely, and at some point they will. Rates for Term Life Policies are
guaranteed for the duration of the policy period and cannot increase
during that time.
