Wibble asked:
I am married and in my thirties my wife is the same age. We have an 18 month child and another baby on the way. After doing some research between Whole Life and Term Insurance I decided that Term Insurance should be able to fulfill my needs incase something should happen. My question is:
1) Am I making the right decision in going with Term?
2) How much coverage should I buy
3) How many years should I buy
4) Can anyone recommend a reputable Insurance Company
Thanks!

I am recently out of the military and need to purchase an individual health ins policy. However, I am not sure which ones are the best. I am a student, do they offer any good student policies? Also, is the SGLI to VGLI conversion a good change to make? If not, which is better term or whole life insurance policies?

Jay R asked:
I have read from many different sources that term insurance is the best way to go, and just invest in mutual funds. But, I personally know a few people who own cash value policies. They have something called “equity indexed” life insurance (not variable life insurance) and seem to be pretty happy with it. Does anyone know anything about or have any experience with this kind of insurance? I’m considering going with something like that because I was told it’s basically term insurance with a savings component where you earn interest based on the upward movement of the S&P 500, but you’re not actually investing in the market so there’s supposed to be no downside risk.

Alice Z asked:
Agents are always extremely keen about selling my family whole life insurance instead of term. According to the agents, whole life is preferable to term since it does not expire and as a result the beneficiary is guaranteed some payment upon the death of the insured. However, why would the insurance company profit from such a setup if they are bound to pay back an amount that is at least equal to the total amount paid?

I have tried to do some research on my own, but I still can’t seem to fully understand this matter. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
