Forward Term Life Insurance is often times an inexpensive method to obtain a needed amount of death benefit for a specific period of time. Term Insurance can usually be purchased for periods of 5 - 10 - 15 - 20 or 30 years with a level guaranteed premium. Term Insurance policies do not build cash value. Choose Your Coverage Period During that period, the owner/insured is obligated to pay a level premium to avoid lapsing the coverage. Premium payments can be paid annually, semi-annually, quarterly or monthly and are guaranteed NOT to increase for said period. Term Life plans offer various optional provisions or 'riders' that include, but are limited to such items as premium waivers (in event of disability), accelerated living benefit riders, accidental death riders and conversion options. There is usually an additional cost for these optional riders. For example, converting your policy at the end of specified period may be an attractive option. In many cases, the insurance company will credit your new policy with the monies you already deposited, under certain guidelines. Buy Term & Invest the Difference You may have heard this saying before. Some planners will suggest that you should keep your insurance separate from your saving strategies. The conventional wisdom behind this is one where you purchase the lowest cost Term Life plan and use your other discretionary assets to buy stocks, mutual funds or some other type of investment program. It could be argued that this is a good approach for some people, especially 30 years ago. However, today one can combine the two and receive extended tax privileges in doing so, that would not otherwise be available to the investor / insured. One such opportunity lies in Variable Life plans.
