The Complete Guide To Permanent Life Insurance
Confused about permanent life insurance? This video is for you! In 30 minutes, I explain the ins and outs of whole life insurance, universal life insurance, variable universal life insurance, and indexed life insurance so you can understand the benefits and drawbacks of each. I also introduce you the 5 terms you need to understand when evaluating permanent life insurance policies, including death benefit, beneficiary, premium, cash value, and cash surrender value. After watching, you should also understand how the premium, cost of insurance, and cash value work together to provide you a life insurance policy.
I'm a financial planner with my own "opinion" of these products and their purported benefits to policy holders, but my intention here is to provide you all of the facts so you can make your own decision. At the end of the video, I give you 5 reasons why I do not recommend permanent life insurance to my clients and also provide 3 exceptions where a professional might recommend permanent life insurance.
Use the timestamps to help guide yourself through the video! I hope you come away with a better understanding of these products and their applicability as both a safety net for you and your family and investment vehicles. If you have had any personal experience with these products or have some reason to have a different perspective please share in the comments!
