Understanding the Basics

Types of Life Insurance

The right coverage depends on your goals and stage of life. Jerry McCullough helps clients in Rolling Meadows, California, Arizona, and other states understand the differences so they can make a confident choice.

Term Life Insurance

Term life insurance provides affordable coverage for a set number of years—often 10, 20, or 30. It’s designed to replace income during your most financially vulnerable years, like when you’re paying off a mortgage or raising children. If you pass away during the term, your loved ones receive a tax-free death benefit to help cover living expenses, debts, or education costs. Because it’s temporary and has no cash value, term life is usually the least expensive option.

Whole Life Insurance

Whole life insurance is permanent coverage that lasts for your lifetime, as long as premiums are paid. In addition to a guaranteed death benefit, these policies build cash value over time. That cash value grows tax-deferred and can be accessed through loans or withdrawals, providing flexibility for future needs. Whole life is often chosen by those who want lifelong protection, estate planning tools, or the ability to leave a financial legacy for children or grandchildren.

Final Expense Policies

Final expense insurance is a smaller, permanent policy designed to cover funeral costs, medical bills, and other end-of-life expenses. These plans are usually easier to qualify for, making them a good option for seniors or those with health challenges. By having a final expense policy, families can avoid financial stress during an already difficult time, ensuring loved ones can focus on what matters most.

Life Insurance for Every Stage

  • Young Families often choose term life to protect income and secure their children’s future.
  • Empty Nesters may focus on final expenses, estate planning, or leaving a legacy.
  • Seniors can access policies designed for guaranteed coverage even with health challenges.
