Advantages and disadvantages
There are a number of reasons to consider buying whole life insurance. It's easy to understand. The payments are the same every month. And some whole life policies can be completely paid for after a certain number of years. Because your policy earns a fixed rate of interest, it's easy to predict the growth of your cash value over time.
Its uniformity means that this type of life insurance isn't very flexible. Meaning, you can't customize it however you like. But, for dependable and predictable life insurance coverage, whole life insurance may be a good option.
Keep in mind that as your life changes (for example, marriage, birth of a child or a job promotion), so will your life insurance needs. Make sure your whole life insurance policy suits your long-term needs. You should weigh any associated costs before making a purchase. Life insurance has fees and charges include costs of insurance that vary based on the insured's gender, heath and age. There are additional charges for riders that customize a policy to fit your individual needs.
