When researching life insurance, you have more than likely run across the term “permanent life insurance.”  But what exactly is permanent life insurance?


Well, as you might have guessed, it is a type of life insurance similar to term life insurance (which we discussed here).  Permanent life insurance extends over the course of your whole life.  Now, what are the pros and cons to permanent life insurance.  One pro is that this kind of life insurance doesn’t expire; you never have to worry about losing it.  A major con, however, is that it tends to be more expensive than term life insurance.


So, is permanent life insurance worth it compared to term life insurance?  Well, it will depend on what you consider the most important part of your policy.  But if stability is valuable to you, and you don’t mind a slightly higher cost, then permanent life insurance is worth it.
