Adam Nanson, impartial mortgage broker from Your Mortgage Expert discusses why Life Insurance is an important choice for your finances and family.
Why are people not taking out Life Insurance?
“If you have loved ones, children and people who financially depend on you, we always advise our clients to consider some form of Life Insurance Cover. Life insurance pays a cash sum to the people of your choice upon your death. This means that outgoings like mortgages and household bills can be covered. This research has found that 40% of people aren’t even considering it which is really worrying.
“The main reasons given for not taking out life cover include the perception that cover will be too expensive. Or that they think they don’t need life cover. Some said that they didn’t want to think about the difficult topic of Life Insurance.”
Why should I consider Life Insurance?
Adam Continues:
“We often advise our clients to think about your monthly expenses as a family or a couple. Would these still need to be paid if you weren’t around? Think about whether your household relies on your income to help pay those bills. Would they cope financially without you?
