Difference Between Term Life and Whole Life Policies
Understanding the difference between term life and whole life insurance is often vital when reviewing a policy:
1. Term Life Insurance: Offers coverage for a specific period, such as 10, 20, or 30 years. It’s generally more affordable and straightforward, providing a death benefit if the policyholder passes away during the term.
2. Whole Life Insurance: Provides lifelong coverage with an added savings component, known as cash value, which grows over time. It’s more expensive than term life but offers the benefit of accumulating cash value and potential dividends.
