In PA, Work With Miller Carlisle on a Term Life Insurance Policy that Fits Your Budget and Your Needs

No one likes thinking about the eventual inevitable. But everything alive will one day die. It’s a basic fact of life.

Another fact of life? Life goes on. Families endure. Society continues even though the individual doesn’t. Therefore, it’s the smart, prudent thing to plan ahead and protect your family from the heavy financial burden that would result from you (and your income) not being there.

That’s the solution that term life insurance provides. For a term of 10, 15, 20, or 30 years, you can affordably and comfortably provide financial protection for your family, giving them peace-of-mind knowing that money will be available even in the worst-case scenario.

What Is Term Life Insurance and Who Should Get It?

Got Kids? A Spouse? A Mortgage? You Ought To Carry a Term Life Insurance Policy

Term life insurance is a simple, straightforward, cost-effective way to get a guaranteed death benefit from an established, reputable issuing insurance company. By owning a term life insurance policy, you’re providing vital financial resources to your family to cover the mortgage, household expenses, education expenses, funeral expenses, and more – resources that wouldn’t be there without life insurance.

Term life insurance works best for a wide variety of situations: a younger family just starting out; an established homeowner looking for mortgage protection in the event of lost income; an older couple needing to provide each other with money for final expenses. Anyone in any of the aforementioned scenarios should investigate making an investment in term life insurance as part of their overall financial planning.

The last thing you want is to hand your family a major financial burden as the last thing you do. Avoid that catastrophic ending; have a conversation with the professional insurance agents of Miller Carlisle about an affordable, substantial, intelligently designed term life insurance policy from a leading insurance company in Pennsylvania.

The Benefits of Term Life Insurance

Affordability, Convertibility, and (Sometimes) No Medical Exam!

When you select term life insurance as your method of providing financial protection to your family, you’re making a smart choice for your family’s future financial picture as well as your bottom line in the present.

The primarily benefit of owning a term life insurance policy is the unfortunately named “death benefit.” Basically, that’s the phrase used to describe the lump-sum cash payout due to the beneficiaries of a life insurance policy upon the confirmed death of the insured person. Thanks to tax-advantaged treatment of life insurance proceeds, the policy’s death benefit is typically paid out to the beneficiary as untaxed income – although it’s always a good idea to check with your tax advisor and financial professional to be sure.

But there are additional benefits to term life insurance policies – most notably the more affordable term life insurance premiums, which are typically lower than premiums for a permanent life policy such as whole life insurance or universal life insurance.

Plus, if you ever do decide to buy life insurance on a more permanent basis, you have the option to convert your term life policy into a permanent policy – which is often a great idea, considering your cash benefit remains at the same level as under the term policy, and your premiums remain affordable (often the premiums you’ve already paid can be applied to the newly converted permanent insurance policy).

Furthermore, it makes sense to start off with a term life insurance policy and subsequently convert it to permanent coverage such as a whole life or universal life insurance policy, because (depending on the insurance company) you may not require a medical exam or disclosure of health issues as long as there’s no increase in the death benefit coverage amount.

Again, consult with a Miller Carlisle agent or your financial professional to determine whether converting a life insurance policy from term to perm would result in higher premiums.

Term Life Insurance Has Many Advantages – But So Do Permanent Life Insurance Policies

There’s more than one way to protect your family from loss of income due to the breadwinner’s death. Term life insurance policies represent the most affordable way – but there are considerable advantages to obtaining permanent coverage such as whole life insurance or universal life insurance policies.

The most obvious feature of a permanent policy – other than the fact that there is no specified term length, meaning the policy is in-force for the insured’s entire life (as long as premiums are paid on time) – is the cash value that accumulates within the policy. Whereas a term life insurance policy is solely death benefit, a permanent life insurance policy can build cash value which is available to the insured while they’re still alive.

Universal life insurance and whole life insurance rates tend to be at a higher cost than for term life insurance, which is reasonable because you’re paying for more than a death benefit – you’re investing in a tax-advantaged vehicle which can provide money (in the form of policy loans) whenever you need it.

Some people utilize cash-value life insurance policies as part of their retirement and other financial planning. With a permanent insurance policy, the insured doesn’t have to worry about a yearly renewable term or premiums that increase significantly.
