Why Should I Get Term Life Insurance & Whats Best For Me

Learn why you should get term life insurance and what coverage is best for you.

If you are shopping for term life coverage, you may be asking "why should I get term life insurance" and "what term life insurance is best for me?" First of all, Life Insurance is divided into two major categories: Term Life Insurance and Permanent Life Insurance.

Term Life Insurance (or "Term Insurance") is the simplest form of life insurance, and is typically the least expensive. The premium is usually lower than other forms of insurance because no cash value is accrued.

There are two basic types of Term Life Insurance policies: Level Term and Decreasing Term. With Level Term Insurance, the death benefit stays the same throughout the duration of the policy, while the death benefit for a Decreasing Term policy drops over the course of the policy's term. Term Insurance pays a benefit only if death occurs during the term of the policy, which is usually from one to 30 years. If death occurs after the term of the policy, no benefit is paid.
