Term Life Insurance over 50

Term life is the most affordable type of coverage. If you’re in good health and on a budget, this is always going to be the least expensive way to get covered. Here’s how it works:

  • Choose a term length. The older you get, the shorter a term you’ll be allowed to select. The good news? Since people are living longer, the insurers are allowing seniors to apply for longer terms than ever before. At age 50, you can still apply for a term as long as 30 years. If you’re 60, you can apply for up to a 25-year term. If you’re 70, you can apply for up to a 20-year term. If you’re 80, you can apply for up to a10-year term.
  • Choose a policy face value. How much coverage do you need? That depends on what you want to use it for. Is it primarily to pay for your funeral and final medical expenses? Or do you want to leave an inheritance for your kids or grandkids? We can give you quotes for different face values to find the one that fits the sweet spot for your needs and your budget.
  • Get a quote. You can start with our online quoter, or call us and let one of our licensed life insurance agents help you.

Universal Life Insurance over 50

Universal life is one form of cash value life insurance, which has different features than a term life policy. This policy type is designed to cover you for the rest of your life, as well as grow cash value (a savings component).

  • Policy matures, but does not expire. Instead of a term length, you select an age when you want the policy to mature (age 65-121). When the policy matures, if you’re alive, the insurance company pays you the death benefit. If you pass away before the maturity date, your beneficiary(ies) make a claim and the insurance company will pay them. As long as you keep your policy current with payments, either you or your beneficiary is guaranteed to get a payout, unlike term life insurance which could expire before you pass away.
  • Earn cash value. Like all cash value policies, universal life comes with an account attached to your policy. It’s funded partly by your monthly payments, with interest paid by your insurer. The insurer will update that interest rate periodically to correspond with prevailing rates. Once your cash value has built up, you can access it via policy loans or partial withdrawals.
  • More expensive than term life. The higher cost is a trade-off for coverage that’s guaranteed to pay off. If you’re not sure which type to select, we recommend talking to one of our licensed agents and getting quotes for both types.
  • Less expensive if you take a medical exam. You can get a universal life policy with a lower face value (less than $25,000) without taking a medical exam, but it will cost you more. If you’re healthy (or even relatively healthy, with only one or two health issues), it’s worth the time to take the free medical exam to get a lower rate and more coverage.
