Frequently Asked Questions >>  

 

Why do I need life insurance?

  • Pay final expenses
    Funerals can cost a lot of money that survivors don't have. Costs can include a casket and services, such as embalming, visitation, and the use of a hearse.  But this amount does not include the related burial cost, such as burial plot, burial vault, headstone, grave opening, cremations, or urns.

  • Replace income for your dependents
    If people depend on your income, life insurance can replace that income for them if you die.      Add up all of your monthly bills and imagine who is going to pay them.  Typically, advisors will encourage their clients to buy enough so that their clients can live off the interest (5-20 times annual salary).

  • Create an inheritance for your heirs
    Even if you have no other assets to pass to your heirs, you can create an inheritance by buying a life insurance policy and naming them as beneficiaries.

  • Other reasons:  Pay federal and state "death" taxes, Make charitable contributions, College funds

 

Is this as simple as it seems?

Yes, applying for life insurance has never been simpler and should only take 5 minutes.  Just get an online quote, select your premium, apply online, and submit your premium.  Everything is done online with no paperwork.  No insurance agent will visit.

 

What is a beneficiary?

A beneficiary is the person or entity you name in a life insurance policy to receive the death benefit.

 

How much life insurance do I need?

  • If you need to replace your income:  Advisors recommend anywhere from 5 to 20 times your annual salary.  These numbers are calculated based on your dependents investing the money and earning 5% interest.  This would replicate your salary if need be.

  • If you want enough to pay off your funeral cost and debt:  you will need at least $10,000 plus your existing debt (which can include but not limited to: medical bills, house, auto, loans, etc...)

Do I have to meet with an insurance agent?

No, you get your quote, select your plan, and apply online.  The process should only take 5 minutes.  If there is an issue with your account an insurance agent (or GTL company representative) will give you a call/email.  There will be no appointments or doctor/insurance agent visits.
