Author: Ivon T. Hughes

Choosing the right insurance plan for you and your family can be difficult. After all, you want a policy that will provide for your loved onces in the future without costing you a fortune today. Term Life insurance may be your answer.

What is Term Life Insurance?
Term Life is an insurance plan which lasts for only a specific number of years. Once that time is up, the policy expires. Because the plan is not permanent, the premiums are considerably lower.

How is Term Life Different From Whole Life?
While Term Life insurance provides protection for only a specified number of years, Whole Life will protect you for the rest of your life as long as your premiums are paid. Whole Life plans usually offer lower coverage but charge higher premiums.

How can I tell if Term Life is for me?
If you were to pass away suddenly, which would help your family more: $100,000 or $500,000? A $500,000 term life plan will cost you the same as a $100,000 whole life plan. Most families could really use the extra coverage to pay the mortgage, the utilities, the credit card debt, the car payments at a time of crisis. So the question is really: Is Term Life right for your family?

This is a website where you can find out what the insurance will cost you BEFORE deciding to proceed.

A quote will give you a general idea of what the insurance will cost. But it cannot give you a DEFINITE amount as of course it knows nothing of your personal history. But here, before you decide to buy, you can KNOW exactly what it will cost. Simply give us some preliminary information. and the underwriter will call to ask some questions or a nurse's visit will be arranged. The underwriter, from an insurance we choose, will then do the evaluation. Based on this evaluation we then get you the best possible rate from competing insurance companies.

REMEMBER a "quote" is just that, a quote. The car mechanic will give you a quote but the bill goes up if he finds other problems. Our system gives you a firm price BEFORE you proceed, so there are no surprises. And you have 10 days to return the policy and get all of your money back, with no questions asked!

Previously, you gave a cheque with the signed application and waited to see if you were approved, a process that normally took weeks. NOW, just like a mortgage, you can be PRE-APPROVED and know your premium BEFORE you decide whether to proceed.
