MetroSurance has your life insurance needs covered!

Ormond Beach Business Insurance Agents with MetroSurance offer several coverage options for your life insurance needs.

But allow us to answer this popular question...
How do term and cash value life insurance work?

Term life insurance generally offers the most amount of coverage for the least amount of money, and is the appropriate choice for most people. The most common reason to buy life insurance is to replace a person's income in case of early death, and term life insurance is the cheapest and best way to do that. Term life insurance is also an especially good choice for people and families who are just starting out, because it's relatively cheap and provides a lot of protection when replacing income is most important.

Cash value life insurance, also called permanent or whole life insurance, offers protection for your entire life (as long as you pay your premiums) and more flexibility than term life insurance. However, it usually comes at a much higher price. For example, the premium for a cash value policy can easily be 10 or more times higher than a term policy with the same level of coverage. The feature that makes permanent life insurance different is its ability to gain cash value. A portion of the money you pay into your premium goes into a cash value portion that grows over time, and becomes available for your use after a certain period.

Making the choice

Most financial planning experts recommend term life insurance in almost all circumstances. You could potentially benefit from a cash value life insurance policy, but it's very likely that you'll overpay for what you get in return. You can receive almost all the retirement and investment benefits of permanent life insurance through traditional means, such as a 401(k) account, IRAs, bonds, etc. Even if you can afford the premiums for cash value insurance, you're probably better off buying the same amount of term life insurance and investing the difference.

If you're still unsure, remember that many term life insurance policies offer a conversion feature. This option will allow you to change the term life policy to a permanent life policy, either during a set period or at any point in the term. Some policies even allow you to credit some of the term premiums you've already paid toward your permanent life insurance policy.
