Should I buy Whole Life Insurance
Whole life insurance isn’t a product designed to replace term insurance.
Whole life insurance has to be used with the intent of using it as collateral for loans, enhanced retirement and for leaving a legacy.
In the early years it should be set up with a term rider to ensure a family’s needs will be met.
Yes this is more expensive but it is a tool with an objective and if that’s not the objective then whole life makes no sense at all.
It is not right for everyone.
