If you’re in your 20’s and 30’s, buying life insurance probably sounds like some of the financial advice you hear from your grandparents. You won’t find anyone telling you not to buy that weekly latte in this short read; Instead, we’re sharing one of the easiest ways you can level up in 2022: by buying a $16/month* term life policy.
All it takes is 10 minutes to cover your assets (and protect your family from footing the bill for your student loans).
Life insurance companies look at your age and health when you apply for coverage. Young, healthy individuals get a lower rate because they’re considered “lower risk” by the insurance carrier. This means that you can get rates as low as $16 a month* for a term life policy – with no need to go to a doctor or fill out a pile of paperwork.
If your parents co-signed your student loan, mortgage loan or credit card, they could be on the hook for those payments if you were no longer able to make them. Your life insurance policy would cover these costs for your loved ones: If your parents co-signed your student loan and they’re your chosen beneficiaries, the death benefit of your policy would go to them to cover those bills. If you pass away without life insurance, your loved ones might have to pay your debts out of their own pocket.
If you have life insurance through your employer, you’re off to a great start! However, your job usually only covers one to three times your annual salary in a life insurance payout. In reality, you’ll need about 10 times your annual salary to ensure your loved ones are taken care of, debts are paid off or your business debt is covered if you were to unexpectedly pass away.
This is especially important if you have young children, as they will need financial support to continue their way of living if you are no longer around.
According to the National Funeral Directors Association (NFDA), the median cost of a funeral is $7,360, but with a vault (required by many cemeteries) this cost rises to $8,755. The average cost of a funeral and cremation is around $6,200. If you have life insurance, your family won’t have to face the financial burden of an expensive funeral.
Some term life insurance policies offer rewards for healthy living. Whether it be completing a daily exercise regimen or quitting smoking, your life insurance company may offer benefits such as gift cards, discounts at certain stores and restaurants or even a smartwatch to help you maintain a healthy lifestyle.
