- What Should Be The Good Years
You had two children, a boy and a girl. You were very fortunate. No family member had any serious illness. Your children were quite normal. They involved themselves in the usual sports activities that most children participate in. Your daughter wanted to play the piano and take dancing lessons. You provided these things for them and put them through college. They are now on their own and you are looking forward to
retirement.
You will receive your pension as well as a Social Security check. You and your wife can live pretty comfortably.
One day you find that you need a little extra cash. You can get that from your permanent life insurance policy. You get to the age where you are even more concerned about death. What would happen to your spouse if you should die? Would her pension be sufficient to live on. If not, that permanent life insurance policy will provide sufficient cash or income for her...after
burial costs
are paid.
If during retirement you find that you no longer have a need for life insurance you can cash in the policy.
