Life Insurance

With life insurance, the insured is transferring the risk of death on to the insurer. It is not always the case that the insured is insuring their own life. Therefore there are three parties in a life insurance contract, the insurer, the insured person, and the owner of the policy. The other vitally important party is the beneficiary; this is the person who receives the insurance money if the insured’s death does occur. Likewise, if my wife insures my life and makes herself the beneficiary, then she is the owner and the beneficiary.

You must have what is known as an insurable interest in the life of the person you are insuring. You are presumed always to have an interest in the life of your spouse and guardians, if you are a minor, but all other relationships will have to prove the insurable interest. If employers have a very highly valued employee, or sports teams have a star player, or a famous actor contracts to make a film, their employers will be able to insure their lives.

Most life insurance policies will have a suicide clause stating that if the insured commits suicide, usually within a period of two years, the policy will not pay out. The value of the insurance policy will be subject to the principle of insurable interest also.

A penny saved is a penny earned as they say.

If you have a mortgage, it can help to pay off that debit so that your family will not loose their home. One great thing about Life Insurance benefits is that it is usually paid out tax-free.
