A limited-pay whole life policy, just like straight life, endows for the face amount if the insured lives to age 100. The premium is, however, paid off in 20 years,
A fully paid policy is a limited pay whole life policy under which all premium payments have been made. For example, a 20 pay policy is completely paid for after 20 payments. No future premiums have to be made, and the policy remains in full force for the life of the insured.
Straight whole life is a whole life policy that provides a constant level of protection and level premiums throughout the life of the policy which is until death of the policyholder or age 100 as long as the premiums are paid. Limited pay whole life is a whole life policy in which premiums are paid for a set number of years at which the policy is considered paid in full. i.e. a 20-pay policy in which premiums are paid for 20 years and coverage is good for life. The shorter the period for premiums the higher they will tend to be. Single premium whole life is a whole life policy in which one substantial single premium is paid at the beginning and from that point on the policy is considered paid in full. This premium gives it an immediate cash value. Straight whole life Limited pay whole life Single premium whole life
Do I have to pay tax on my exhusband's life insurance if I am also the benificary of the policy?

Sounds like you would only pay premiums for a specific period of time and then have a paid up insurance policy. For instance, buying a 20-pay life on your infant and it is all paid up at age 20 and will never go away. A great gifting idea to your kids!
If a person dies in a manner not covered by the policy, there would be no payout.

A single pay whole life insurance policy is a permanent life insurance policy that requires a one time payment/premium. The policy is guaranteed to stay in force until age 121 (in USA) and no additional premiums need to be paid.
Limited pay life insurance is really just a form of whole life. The difference is that the policy holder pays premiums only for a preset period of time, after which they enjoy the benefits of the policy for life. Policy holders can also borrow against this type of policy if needed, and it pays dividends.
It is reasonable to pay around 20 dollars a month for a 200000 dollar policy as a healthy person in their 30's.
