Are you looking for a truly valuable gift for an upcoming birthday, high school graduation, wedding, college graduation, or birth of a child or grandchild? Permanent life insurance provides death benefit protection, creates a living legacy that will accumulate cash value with each passing year, and may help your child or grandchild get a head start on his or her financial future.Need more reasons?
It won't wear out or fall apart. Life insurance can last a lifetime, provided you continue to pay the policy premiums. The policy you purchase for a son or daughter today can still be there years from now providing death benefit protection for your child's future son, daughter, or spouse.
It has accumulation potential. Most gifts lose value over time. A permanent life insurance policy, on the other hand, has the potential to accumulate cash value each year. Cash values can be borrowed against for any purpose—to provide a down payment on a first home, to help pay for college, to capitalize on a business or other opportunity, or even to help fund a comfortable retirement decades from now. (Note: Loans against your policy will accrue interest and decrease the death benefit and cash value by the amount of the outstanding loan and interest; withdrawals reduce the available death benefit.)
There are tax advantages. Under current law, cash values that accumulate in the policy are tax deferred. Even when cash values are borrowed, there may be no tax consequences in many instances. Finally, proceeds received by beneficiaries are generally not taxable as income. Consult with your tax advisor for more details.
Premium rates may never be lower. Premiums generally increase with age. However, with permanent life insurance it is possible to lock in the premium at the insured's current age for life.
This policy can help guarantee future insurability. Once the policy has been issued, coverage cannot be canceled as long as all required premiums are paid. Also, if a Policy Purchase Option (PPO) Rider is included with the policy, the insured has a right to increase coverage at designated dates, regardless of insurability.
