Term Life Insurance pays a cash benefit to the insured’s beneficiaries during a specified period of time (the term.) As one of the most affordable types of insurance, Term Life Insurance allows you to cover financial responsibilities like mortgage, education costs and daily living expenses, should something happen to you.
Permanent Life Insurance policies provide lifelong coverage and build cash value over time, provided that you pay the premiums. Although more expensive than term life, this type of policy will not expire, pending premiums paid.
