Life Insurance
What kind of life insurance do we need? and what is a good company to buy from?
My husband and I are 28 years old, have three children and plan to have one more child in the near future. We live in Virginia (DC area). His annual earnings are about $70k; I also work part time earning annually about $35k. We currently have life insurance through our employers, but we want to get policies on our own. Can anyone recommend a good company to go with and a type of policy that we should get?
Also, should we get life insurance on our children? if so, what kind?
The goal that I want to accomplish with the life insurance is this. If my husband or I was to die, I would want my children to continue the same financial life that they would have had with both parents living. For this I am calculating that we need about a $2 million policy. After our children are grown, I would like for us to have a lower policy; just enough to cover the cost of bills and a little something to help the kids, I am thinking something around 200k.
What GOAL do you want to accomplish with the life insurance??? Need to know that.
Also, I NEVER EVER EVER recommend life insurance on children. Don't have any on mine. I think it's a waste of money.
