It can help cover some less common needs.

Fairly unlikely. It can also ensure the child’s ability to qualify for life

*Replacing Retirement Benefits

Life insurance is often marketed as income replacement for an

Insured person during their working years, but some retirees may

Choose to keep theirs after leaving work. It can be used to replace

The loss of any retirement income for their spouse or any dependents. 

 

*Investment

Permanent life insurance can provide you with a potential income

Source. You can access your cash value once it has built up to a

Certain level. Some policies also allow for an accelerated death benefit,

Which allows you to access the death benefit while you're still alive in

Case of a triggering event. That could include being diagnosed with a

Terminal illness, needing extreme medical intervention, or needing

Nursing home care.
