Your Life Insurance Policy - A 20 Year Time Time Line

20 YEAR VIEW ON YOUR LIFE INSURANCE POLICY

I've been reading about other people's experiences with their life insurance policies and some of the challenges / misperceptions they've had.

For this example, let's assume you were 25 when you took out your 20 year term life insurance policy. This policy will be complete when you're 45.

Just imagine all of the things that happen in your and your families life in that 20 year period.

The following can happen in that 20 year period:

  • Get married
  • Have children
  • Go on several vacations
  • Have several jobs or positions at your job
  • Move to a few different homes, possibly new cities
  • Possibly have grand children

With all this stress you may have gained a few extra pounds, or developed some illnesses related to stress.

Your life has changed an enormous amount and your life insurance "risk situation" has more than likely changed.

From a life insurance company's perspective you're 20 years closer to the day of your death. This in itself is going to naturally increase your risk situation.

I bring up all of these points as the impression I've gotten from reading different people's stories is that they're surprised that the Insurance Company has changed it's policies from 20 years ago.

The insurance company really hasn't changed their policies as much as you've changed as an individual.

When you were 25 years old, life was new exciting and refreshing. You had no health problems and lots of energy to burn. You just started into your career and probably hadn't gotten married yet. Also, when you were 25, you didn't have enough money to go on big vacations or start into expensive hobbies such as skydiving etc.

The last time you thought about your insurance policy was 20 years ago when your life was alot simpler than it is now.

If this sounds like your situation, it may be time to re-assess your risk situation and have a look at getting a new policy with the "updated" features that go with your current life situation.

Life changes for people. Insurance companies view of risk doesn't really change. It may be time to contact one of our agents to readdress your life insurance situation.
