Life insurance - for anyone who loves

Family hugging

How do you show your love? By sending flowers, lots of hugs, cooking for your loved ones, going shopping for a special someone … getting life insurance? 

Why is life insurance so important?

Life insurance can help replace income that you bring into a family. It can help provide money to pay off a mortgage, bills and other expenses, and even provide funds for education. And yet, figures show that many families have little or no life insurance protection.

What does this mean to you?

Well, if you have a family, or anyone who would be affected in a negative way financially if you were to die, you should seriously consider adding life insurance protection. Of course, we’d like you to consider life insurance protection from Horace Mann. In any case, if you have never purchased it, the first step is to learn more about life insurance.

The most inexpensive type of life insurance will be term life insurance coverage. For a certain period of time (term), you are purchasing a certain amount of coverage that would be paid only upon your death. There is also a form of term insurance called cash value term which accumulates cash value over the life of the policy, and if you do not utilize the policy over the term, you can receive the cash value at the end of the policy term.

There are also more permanent life insurance policies, such as whole life insurance, indexed universal life insurance (IUL), universal life insurance (UL) and variable universal life insurance (VUL). While these can be more expensive than term policies, they provide other financial benefits and flexibility, and they can also provide additional death benefits.

You can learn more about these different types of policies on our website.
