Term Insurance
The purpose of term insurance is to cover your family in the event that the breadwinner dies. The amount of term insurance is up to you, whether you want your family to live the rest of their life on the payout or just want them to have enough money to transition into their new life without you. Things to consider when deciding an amount include: educations, final costs, income replacement, and loans. Once children are out of the house, life insurance is not needed as heavily, but still needed. The perfect match for term life insurance is an investment account because when your term insurance expires you can self insure yourself with the gains you made on your investments over the term of the policy.
