Arizona Term Life Insurance
The origins of life insurance can be traced to the Romans and Greeks
back to 600 AD when they offered coverage for families to pay for funeral
and care for the family of a deceased person.
Term life insurance, by its name alone, indicates that the coverage is
for a specified period of time. Commonly you will find term life called
by names such as 10 year term, 20 year term, 30 year term. or Refund of
Premium term.
If you buy a 10/20/30 year term or get a term life insurance quote, it
does not mean the coverage necessarily ends after that time. Coverage
may continue but the premium is recalculated for your new age. Keep in
mind that most term life insurance ends after age 75. Term is ideal for
younger people. You can buy alot of term for less money than a
permanent policy. The downside is term is not forever and the premium increases
at some point.
There is no cash value in term. However, Refund of Premium term
insurance agrees to refund your premiums in full in the event you do not die
after a specified period of time. The insurance company charges an
extra premium for this optional feature. When considering such a policy, it
is good to consider whether you are able to set aside the extra premium
into an interest bearing account. The reason is this optional feature
does not pay interest on your money when it is refunded back to you.
Ideally, a person can mix term life insurance to 1) provide the
overall amount of life insurance they need to protect loves ones, with 2)
some permanent life insurance to ensure they have some protection in force
during those later years.
While it is possible for someone to buy 100% permanent life insurance
the cost is usually prohibitive for most people. To have the ability to
mix term life along with permanent life is important.
