Start with what matters

What can life insurance help protect?

Life insurance is not just a dollar amount. It is a plan for the responsibilities that would continue even if your income did not.

Family income

Help replace the income your household depends on for everyday living expenses.

Mortgage and debt

Give loved ones resources to manage a mortgage, loans and other financial obligations.

Children’s future

Plan for childcare, education and the milestones you want to help make possible.

Final expenses

Help reduce the financial burden of funeral costs and other immediate expenses.

Understand the basics

Two broad types of life insurance

The right fit depends on how long you need coverage, what you want the policy to accomplish and what comfortably fits your budget.

Temporary coverage

Term life insurance

Coverage for a selected period, often used to protect income during working years or while major obligations remain.

  • Coverage for a defined term
  • Generally lower initial premiums
  • No cash-value component
Long-term coverage

Permanent life insurance

Coverage designed to remain in force for life when required premiums are paid and policy conditions are met.

  • Potential lifetime protection
  • May build cash value
  • Features and costs vary by policy

Helpful answers

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to buy life insurance?

Many people consider coverage after marriage, having children, buying a home or starting a business. Age and health can affect eligibility and pricing, so waiting may reduce your options.

How is my premium determined?

Insurers may consider age, health, tobacco use, lifestyle, coverage amount, policy type and other underwriting factors. The insurance company—not the agency—determines the final premium and approval.

Will I need a medical exam?

It depends on the policy, insurer, coverage amount and your application. Some applications may use health questions and electronic records, while others may require an exam.

Can I have more than one life insurance policy?

Yes, some people use multiple policies for different needs or time periods. The insurer will still evaluate the total amount of coverage requested and whether it is financially appropriate.

Who should I name as my beneficiary?

You may name one or more people, trusts or eligible organizations. Beneficiary choices can have important legal and financial consequences, so review them carefully and keep them current.
