'Someone who could find a great term life policy for $50 per month might have to pay anywhere from $250 to $750 per month for a comparable permanent life insurance policy'
Permanent life insurance generally includes a life insurance component and a savings or investment component. The thing is, while it can create a good savings habit that leads to a growing cash value, you would often have more if you just set up an automatic savings plan in a savings account rather than using life insurance as a way to save.When you have a savings account or CD, themay not be spectacular, but you'll always know what you're getting.
While many policies are going to give a much better result, this example shows just how bad some permanent life insurance policies can be. Even a modest savings account interest rate is better than a negative return from life insurance.Savings accounts are pretty simple. Term life insurance is fairly straightforward. As long as you understand what you're doing, investment accounts don't hold many surprises.
When it comes to accessing the cash value, you often have the option to take a loan from the cash value, surrender your policy and take the full cash value, or withdraw a portion of the cash value. Each has pros and cons and different long-term results. But none are ideal compared to withdrawing from savings or a taxable brokerage account in most cases.One positive feature that some permanent life insurance policies offer is an ability to earn dividends.
Worst of all, those dividends are not guaranteed. If the insurer experiences a bad year, you could get nothing.Whole or universal life insurance do make sense for some households, particularly those with high net worths that are looking for opportunities to manage taxes and inheritances. But for the typical American household, term life insurance is almost always the better choice. Lower costs for higher levels of coverage are a win-win for your budget and your loved ones.
