Investment in the life insurance polices is a must for everyone.

By Todd Martin

At present in this extravagant or rather an expensive era, we all have to think prudently and put a little more attempt to accumulate and invest for the future of our family. Buying an life insurance policy will not only get progress in our life style but also will confirm to be helpful at all our critical times of life. Whenever we get a chance to invest, we should not look back because investing in the life insurance policies upholds smoothness in our life. There are several reasons to invest in one of the life insurance policies like term life insurance.

The three main reasons for which I feel that we should invest is to protect our selves and our family to go through the financial crisis if we lose anything in life, to lead a tension free life even after retirement and to give our children all the luxuries which they are having today through out their life. Although many people may have many other reasons to invest in the life insurance policies. Some invest for the safety of the future, some invest because they are having much money today and they want some part of their earnings to be invested anywhere and so they decide to invest in the life insurance policy and some may invest because they do not want to be a burden upon anybody in the future for money, not even on their children.

So whatever may the reasons be but the motive is one and that is investing in the life insurance policy and securing our selves. We were very young when we lost both our parents together in an accident. I was hardly 16 years old and my sister was younger to me and she was 13 years old. We were not financially protected because our father never had invested in any of the life insurance policy from where we could get benefit. Till I could reach the age of maturity or rather till I completed my 21 years I had to depend on my uncle who was the legal care taker and guardian of our property.

In some of the policies we can even remove a part of amount if we require but we have to pay the premiums regularly on time so that the policies does not get lapse in between. Even if we have enough money for today but we must consider about the future and try to remove a part of our earnings and invest for a better tomorrow so that we can rest peacefully. I had never invested in any of the life insurance policies and neither did my father ever have invested.

We were not very rich and could hardly earn so that we could take care of only our present expenses. But my friend insisted me to save at least a small part of my earnings for the future. He told me to start with a small amount and then gradually when I felt that I could spare some amount for the payment of the premiums easily, then I should go in for another policy. This way my friends advised and I agreed and told him that I will try the same. I invested in the variable universal life insurance because I felt that this was a good policy and I could invest the minimum amount in it. - 15432
