Hi,

Whilst age is certainly a factor when you are considering getting some life insurance, it shouldn't be something that puts you off it.

If you are looking for the cover to ensure that your family can pay for your burial, then life insurance is a good choice and I certainly would not recommend that your husband cashes in his policy. That would simply leave both of you uncovered!

You are better off looking for life insurance for yourself for a small sum assured (enough to cover your funeral) so that when the sad time comes, your family can cover both your husbands and your own funerals.

You can find some more helpful information about over 50 life insurance on the website I've added to the related links.

It should provide a bit more detail about how your age effects the cover and what you should be looking for.

I hope that helps!

Which company write burial insurance policy?

Funeral homes sell burial insurance policies but you are much better off buying a regular life insurance policy and using part of the benefits to pay for funeral costs. The cost per thousand of the normal life insurance policy is much less on a regular policy than on a burial policy sold by the funeral home. Funeral homes make extremely high commissions on the sales of these policies, the beneficiary and owner of the policy is probably the funeral home as well so you can't change your mind later and make any changes in the policy.
