091421 Why is life insurance worth it?

Life insurance is absolutely essential if there’s someone you care

about who would suffer if you and your financial contributions

were no longer in the picture. 

 

This could include a spouse, children, disabled family members,

aging parents or anyone else who depends on your earnings to

make ends meet.

 

There are several different types of life insurance. But what they

all have in common is that they pay cash to your loved ones in the

event you pass away. This lets you’re nearest and dearest remain

on firm financial ground even though your earnings have stopped.

From the mortgage to child care costs to the weekly grocery haul,

you already know that life comes with many expenses. We all do

so much to take care of our loved ones in the here and now, but

many people don’t consider how those left behind would manage

if the unthinkable were to happen.

 

Over the years, we’ve heard from countless people who were

extremely grateful to have a financial lifeline in the form of life

insurance. And we’ve sadly also heard from those who didn’t

have life insurance to rely on when a breadwinner passed away.
