How Life Insurance Works: Whole Life Insurance Vs. Term Life Insurance
Life insurance is a financial contract that provides your beneficiaries a lump-sum payment, known as a death benefit, upon your passing. There are two main types of life insurance:
1) Permanent life insurance offers lifelong coverage and typically includes a cash value component that may grow over time. The following are types of permanent life insurance:
- Whole life insurance
- Universal life insurance
- Final expense insurance
- Variable life insurance
- Variable universal life insurance
- Indexed universal life insurance
2) Term life insurance is designed to cover a specified period, such as 10, 20 or 30 years. It is typically more affordable than permanent life insurance and is an excellent option for providing a specific level of protection during critical life stages.
