Life Insurance
Life insurance is a great way to provide for loved ones in the event of an untimely death. It can be one of the wisest decisions a person can make to financially protect those who depend on them. While life insurance may not be the easiest thing to talk about, most people realize they need it.
Major reasons given for owning life insurance include:
- Replace lost income
- Cover burial or other final expenses
- Pay off mortgage
