Million Dollar Life Insurance Policy

What are the benefits of a million-dollar life insurance policy?

Choosing to add a million-dollar life insurance policy can mean greater financial stability for your loved ones after you pass away. Because of the larger death benefit, more funds may remain after they pay for immediate costs, such as final expenses and outstanding debt. For example, your loved ones might even be able to use a million-dollar life insurance death benefit for their longer-term living expenses and college tuition.

Who needs a million-dollar life insurance policy?

A million-dollar life insurance policy makes sense for someone whose loved ones will need a million dollars in support after the insured has passed away.

To determine if a million-dollar life insurance policy matches how much life insurance you need, consider how much money your loved ones need on an annual basis (remember to include loans and other debt, future expenses, and long-term needs), and multiply that by the number of years you'd like to support them after you're gone. When you factor in unexpected expenses, you might find that a million-dollar life insurance policy provides a healthy financial cushion for your beneficiaries.

Pro tip:

If your beneficiaries don't want to manage a lump sum payout of a million dollars, consider a policy that allows for the payout to be made in installments over time as a life insurance annuity, with the remaining amount earning interest until the balance has been fully paid.
