Life Insurance in 30 Seconds
If you have dependents, you probably need life insurance.
Term vs. Whole Life:
Most people only need Term which is often 1/8 of the price.
How much coverage?
A good rule of thumb is 25x the income you need.
Cost:
Start young and it is often around $50 a month.
Agent or DIY?
I recommend using an agent - you get expert guidance and it doesn’t cost more. The company pays him a commission.
Make sure you trust him since the more expensive the policy, the more he makes.
