Life Insurance
Life Insurance helps take care of your loved one’s immediate and future financial needs following your death. Immediate needs can include burial/funeral expenses, uninsured medical costs and current bills and debts. Future needs could include income replacement, education plans, ongoing family obligations, emergency funds, and retirement expenses.
- Protection for Life – It doesn’t expire or goes down in value
- Level Premiums – The rate you pay for your policy will never increase
- Cash Value – A portion of your premium builds cash value which can be borrowed against
- Guaranteed Death Benefit – The amount your loved ones receive is guaranteed
As people move through the stages of life, certain factors dictate the type of life insurance they need. During working years, an employer may provide Term Life insurance, but the Unum Whole Life product is designed to last for the remainder of your life and can help give peace of mind because the money you spend builds cash value that you can use later in life or add to the term benefit payout. The graph below illustrates the need for term and permanent whole life insurance throughout the various stages of life.
Disability Insurance
Could you survive if you were suddenly left without a paycheck? How would you pay your mortgage/rent, utilities, car insurance, car payments, food and other living expenses? Disability Insurance provides you with cash to protect your lifestyle when out of work due to an accident or illness.
