Facts About Life Insurance
After your children are grown, and if you’ve been lucky enough to hang onto and grow some of the money you’ve made, you can finally think beyond your immediately needs. Having a financial plan — a strategy for reaching your financial goals — is the key, to building wealth and being prepared to put a plan into action at the end of your life.
One of the tools that you can use in financial planning is life insurance. In younger years, buying the cheapest life insurance possible is one way to ensure that your family can replace your income if you die. Younger people usually focus on less-expensive “term” life insurance, buying as much coverage as possible for a specific time — 15 years, say.
Once there’s additional money, your financial plan can also benefit from another type of insurance called permanent life insurance.
The basic types of life insurance are:
Whole life insurance – Whole life is the simplest form of coverage. Policyholders enjoy lifelong insurance protection, guaranteed consistent premiums, a death benefit, and a cash value option. It also means that you can borrow or withdraw from the cash value portion of your policy whenever you like.
Variable life insurance – It offers many investment opportunities and flexible terms. The most unique feature of variable life insurance policies is that they allow the insured to adjust, to an extent, the policy’s death benefit as well as the size and timing of the premiums.
Universal life insurance – Universal life can offer inexpensive, guaranteed protection with optimal flexibility. With universal life insurance policies, you have the ability to change your premiums and death benefit within limits. You can also choose to grow the policy’s cash value or pay cheaper premiums in order to concentrate on your guaranteed death benefit.
Deployed strategically in a financial plan, permanent life insurance can provide many benefits. Through careful financial planning, life insurance can help you accomplish things in death that you could not accomplish in life. If you’ve been unable, for example, to be the philanthropist you wished, you can name an institution, a group or a school as a beneficiary of your insurance policy.

Preparing for the Big Shake, Get covered
Property risks have had a number of challenges during the past few years; however, one exposure that continues to present problems in this tight insurance market is earthquake. Many people feel there’s little they can do to mitigate earthquake risk. Not true! Basically, any Homeowner can take a risk management approach to an earthquake exposure by following these five steps:
1. Understand the risks — much work has been done recently to try to determine the probability of earth-quakes. The U.S. Geologic Survey website has a significant amount of data on information on earthquake probability estimates for most areas of the country.
2. Assess the acceptability of the risks — determine the economic loss associated with these risks.
3. Evaluate alternatives — review the alternatives to mitigate the risks. One of the most important alternatives will be adequate insurance.
4. Select the appropriate alternatives— since deductibles might be high, you might have to implement a loss mitigation strategy to reduce the severity potential.
5. Implement the chosen alternative(s) — purchase insurance as appropriate and coordinate physical changes with other management programs. Although insurance coverage for earthquake exposures has generally increased in cost, Cambell and Boyd can help you evaluate your alternatives.
