If you have a family, here are five essential things to know before buying a policy:
The best time to buy life insurance is before you think you need it. Rates are based on age and health, so locking in coverage early can save you thousands over time.
Many employers offer life insurance—but it usually isn’t portable or enough to fully protect your family. A personal policy ensures you're covered no matter where you work.
Policies that build cash value (like whole life or IUL) allow you to borrow from your policy during your lifetime. That means you can pay off debt, cover emergencies, or invest in your future while still keeping protection in place.
Keeping your beneficiary information up to date ensures the money goes exactly where you want it to. This is especially important after major life changes like marriage, divorce, or the birth of a child.
It’s one of the most selfless things you can do. A well-structured policy provides stability, dignity, and peace of mind—no matter what happens.
