Introduction to Choosing Life Insurance

If Hamlet were considering life insurance, his famous speech might have said, "Term or permanent—that is the question." Choosing a life insurance policy entails a lot of thought—not least because it requires that you consider your own mortality, just as Hamlet did. But once you’re providing for other people’s financial security, consider your mortality you must—as well as your health and your finances, and many other things. Before you take that step, familiarize yourself with the questions you will have to face. They can make the process much easier to navigate.
