Which type of life insurance is right for me?

Life insurance needs are based on a number of factors: your goals, age, family requirements, health and cost. Having so many options can seem overwhelming, so we’ve created a simple chart to help you better understand which policy or policies are right for you.


How much coverage do I need for my family?

It depends on where you are in your life and who depends on you financially. When you're starting out you’ll want to have enough coverage to replace your income so your family is supported. Later in life, when your kids are grown and your house is paid for, you’ll want to put more emphasis on final expenses and long-term care.
