Your life is unlimited.
But is your life insurance adequate?
Did you know?
Having the right life insurance coverage just may be the single most important financial decision you make. Consider these important facts:1. Experts recommend that your life insurance coverage should equal 10-15 times your income. One way to estimate your own needs is to use the DIME approach – DIME stands for debt, income, mortgage and education – four criteria that help to estimate the total coverage you’ll need.
2. Life insurance will probably cost less than you think. According to research, as many as 8 in 10 people actually over overestimate the cost of term life insurance, and younger generations overestimated by as much as 213%.
3. It’s better to secure life insurance long before you need it—because the cost only increases with time. Your age and health will impact the cost of your premiums accordingly with most insurance underwriting processes. If you know you need more life insurance, the time to secure it is now.

How life insurance works
- You select an amount in keeping with your present needs
- Do the necessary medicals
- Pay an initial premium
- Your premium never increases
- In early years, your contribution is greater than the cost of coverage and conversely, it is much smaller in the later years. So, in the early years a reserve is created, off-setting the growing cost in later years.
