Don't get discouraged if the results are short of what you expected.

There are a number of ways that life insurance may be incorporated into your personal finance strategy. But keep in mind that several factors affect the cost and availability of life insurance, including age, health, and the type and amount of insurance purchased. But the good news is that you can start your life insurance journey today!


Life insurance policies have expenses, including mortality and other charges. If a policy is surrendered prematurely, the policyholder may also pay surrender charges and face income tax implications. You should consider determining whether you are insurable before implementing a strategy involving life insurance. Any guarantees associated with a policy are dependent on the ability of the issuing insurance company to continue making claim payments.
