Uses of Whole Life Insurance
People choose whole life for:
01
Family protection
Ensure loved ones always have financial support
02
Estate planning
Cover estate taxes or provide equal inheritance
03
Final expenses
Pay for funeral and burial costs without tapping savings
04
Legacy planning
Leave a charitable gift or inheritance
03
Cash access
Borrow against cash value for emergencies, education, or business needs
Some policies also pay dividends (if from a participating mutual insurer), which can be taken as cash, used to reduce premiums, or added to the policy for increased benefits.
