6 Main Reasons to get Life Insurance When you are 40-49
1. Your kids: It is likely that you will have kids by age of 40-49 and you want to ensure that they are taken care of should anything happen to you or your spouse.
2. Your significant other: You want to make sure that your spouse / significant other is covered and does not bear the burden of your joint debt should anything happen to you.
4. Mortgage: You are probably in the middle of paying off your mortgage and might be thinking about changing homes to accommodate a growing family. Make sure that a mortgage is paid off should anything happen to you so that your assets will not be collected by a bank.
5. Your business: At this stage of your life you might have your own business. In this case you want to ensure that in all cases you pay off your business debt.
6. Accumulating value towards retirement: For example, with whole life or universal life products you will be able to accumulate cash value as you pay your insurance premiums. If you are going to look at permanent insurance, the cost starts to really escalate after 50. A combination of a permanent and term policy may be a good option – that way you have some permanent coverage.
