You select a beneficiary as the recipient of a lump sum of money in the event of your death or illness, critical or terminal. You pay premiums for a specific period or your entire life based on the type of policy you invest in. Common life insurance policies are either for a &quot;term&quot; or your &quot;whole life.&quot;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>I&#8217;m not married and don&#8217;t have kids. Should I invest in life insurance?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>To some, life insurance may not be worthwhile if they don&#8217;t have a spouse or children. However, there may be other reasons, beyond family, why life insurance may be a wise investment. If you want to pay for your burial, or have other financial obligations, like a mortgage, life insurance is a wise investment.&nbsp;If you pass away before your mortgage is paid off, the mortgage company can reclaim the equity in your home.<\/p>\n<p>Common sense would suggest that life insurance makes the most sense for people with a spouse and dependents. However, there are benefits for single people as well.<\/p>\n<p>If you have questions about life insurance, call us. We can help you explore the benefits of life insurance for single people and your own unique situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Life insurance has many benefits.
