Life Insurance Recommendations In Your 40’s

Goals:

Income replacement with term life insurance: income replacement, to cover mortgage, debt, college with 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 year term life insurance.  This is the cheapest most cost effective life insurance coverage.

Cash value accumulation with permanent life insurance: Whole life, Indexed Universal Life (IUL) or Universal Life (UL), preferably an increasing death benefit option, option B.

One can get two policies, both term and permanent, to cover objectives before and after retirement age.

Recommendations:

Term:

Protective Life  “Custom Choice UL” for guarantees after level benefit period

Prudential:  best current conversion options

Permanent:

Whole LifePenn Mutual  “Guaranteed Whole Life II”   participating “par” whole life with dividends
