Life Insurance for Singles
Many people believe that life insurance is not necessary for singles; however, this couldn’t be further from the truth. Singles may have substantial financial responsibilities that require a life insurance policy.
If you’re like many single men and women, part of a group that represents nearly 40 percent of America’s population, you may feel that you have little need for life insurance. After all, if you have no spouse to protect in the event of your premature death, you are not likely to have many financial obligations. While this may be true for some, many singles need and would greatly benefit from securing life insurance policies.
Just because you are single, does not mean that you are alone and do not have people who depend on you. Your death would likely have a profound financial effect on your family members and having life insurance can help reduce this impact. If you are a young adult, you may have accumulated student loans that will need to be paid off after your death. In these days, many education loans are taken out in the names of other family members, and parents are generally the co-signers. Under law, a co-signer would be fully obligated to pay 100 percent of a debt if the other signer is unable to do so. Obtaining a life insurance policy can help protect your family members from having to shoulder this financial burden on their own, in the event of your premature death.
When you pass away, there will be final expenses that must be taken care of. Sometimes these expenses can cost thousands of dollars. These obligations could fall on your parents and other loved ones and cause them undue stress. Securing a life insurance policy now can take this pressure off of your loved ones.
If you are a single parent, you should also make sure that you secure life insurance. As the sole breadwinner in your household, you are responsible for the support and care of your children. If something happened to you, other family members may step in to help, but this may place a significant financial burden on them. As a single parent, you already know the cost of maintaining your children’s standard of living, and when you die your income will die with you. A life insurance policy can ensure that your children will be provided for in your absence.
An expert life insurance broker can discuss your options with you and help you choose a policy that will provide an adequate amount of coverage.
