Whole Life Insurance

Also known as straight life or permanent life, this insurance may be kept in force for a person's whole life and pays a benefit upon the person's death. All whole life policies build up nonforfeiture values, but they are paid for in 3 different ways. Under a straight or ordinary life policy, premiums are paid for as long as the insured lives. A single premium policy is paid for at one time in one premium. Between these two types there are many limited-payment plans, under which the insured pays premiums for a certain period or until reaching a certain age. Contrast with Term Insurance.

Insurance is one of the most overlooked but vital parts of any good financial plan. Health Insurance Online has partnered with insurance companies to provide free no obligation quotes and advice for consumers.
