According to LIMRA's 2022 Insurance Barometer Study, the secret to financial security is owning life insurance. Choosing the right products can help you to better protect your family’s lifestyle today and into the future.

No matter what your age or situation is, owning a life insurance policy is an excellent family protection strategy. It allows you to leave an inheritance without your beneficiaries having to pay income tax on the death benefit they receive. Your beneficiaries could use the death benefit to replace your lost earned income and pay for essential expenses such as food, shelter, credit card bills, funeral or cremation costs, student and auto loans, medical bills not covered by health insurance, and so much more. It can also be used to provide extra support for retirement and the unexpected such as injury or illness.

The decision to buy life insurance is one of the most critical decisions we make, which is why the decision as to which type of life insurance policy to buy can be just as critical. You can’t really try on a life insurance policy, so the one you choose needs to fit you like a glove from the outset. The challenge for most people is the sheer number of different kinds of life insurance products from which to choose. The choice is made easier when you have a clear understanding of your own needs, priorities, preferences, and outlook on the future. Working with an experienced life insurance professional, you should be able to narrow down your choices.
