benefit may be increased by policy dividends
that have been used to purchase paid-up
additions or that have been left to accumulate
at interest.
Dividends can increase policy values
American Family Life's Whole Life policies
are participating, meaning the life insurance
policy is eligible for the payment of dividends.
Dividends will be credited to the policy on its
anniversary. Dividends, while not guaranteed,
may increase the policy's cash surrender value
and death benefit, depending on the dividend
option selected.
Four dividend options are available:
Paid-Up Additional Life Insurance
Dividends, if declared, are used to purchase
paid-up additional life insurance. These paid-up
additions may increase the policy's cash
surrender value and are also eligible to earn
dividends if declared in future years.
Accumulate
with Interest
Dividends, if
declared, are
left with the
Company to
accumulate
with interest
at a rate set
by American
Family Life.
This option
may increase the total death benefit as well
as the total cash value.
Reduce Premiums
Dividends, if declared, may be used to reduce
the premium due. (This option is not available
when premiums are paid monthly.)
Cash
Dividends, if declared, are paid to the
policyowner by check from the Company.
Guaranteed level premiums
Whole Life insurance provides level premium
payments which are guaranteed; premiums will
never increase regardless of changes in health
or age.
Tax-deferred cash value growth
with guaranteed minimums
Whole Life insurance offers the potential for
long-term cash value growth which can be a
future source of funds. Cash values may be
borrowed through policy loans. Any policy loans
outstanding at death, plus any unpaid loan
interest, will be deducted from the death
benefit.
Distribution options for death proceeds
The beneficiary has several options for receiving
death benefit proceeds. The policyowner may
elect the method of payment during the
insured's life, or if no such election has been
made, the beneficiary may make the election at
the time of death.
Retained Asset Account
An interest-bearing account for proceeds, subject to
account balance minimums, where the beneficiary
has check-writing privileges and complete access to
and control of the funds in the account.

participating policy

The policy-owner will pay the premiums for a specific number of years, maybe 20 or 30, while still getting the guaranteed face amount of the policy upon death. The policy-owner may also set up the policy to be paid off completely by a certain age, such as 65. This type of policy is usually more expensive because the insurance company has to be able to build up the cash value in order to fund the policy.
If you die a life insurance policy pays an amount of money to a person you name. You have to pay premiums otherwise your life insurance will automatically lapse after 30 days.
When choosing a life insurance policy, consider the term length that best fits your needs, such as 10, 20, or 30 years.
The answer, disregarding local legal variations, should be yes. Most companies have a x day exclusion window, where the policy will not be in effect, x typically being 30-90 days.Again, however, there are other factors to consider, such as local law, company policy etc etc.Always read the policy. And no, suicide will not pay out.
A cash value type of life insurance policy usually provides lifetime coverage. Also, there is an investment portion to the policy that builds cash value over time. You may be able to take a loan out from the policy, or even use the cash value to buy more life insurance protection. Term life insurance provides temporary life insurance protection for a specific period of time. Usually term life policies offer coverage for 1-30 years. many term life plans are issued for a period of 10, 15, 20, or 30 years of coverage. Term life insurance does not build cash value within the policy. Term life is considered "Pure Protection" because there is no investment portion, you pay for and receive only life insurance protection. Permanent life insurance usually costs up to 2-3 times more than term life insurance. Although term life is less expensive, the rates do increase when you are older. For instance, if you buy a 10 year term life insurance policy, and you outlive the policy term, it would cost you more to buy a new 10 year policy once your first policy expires.
It is reasonable to pay around 20 dollars a month for a 200000 dollar policy as a healthy person in their 30's.

Term life insurance is temporary coverage that lasts for a specific number of years, usually 10, 15, 20, or 30 years. If you outlive the term of the policy, the life insurance expires. Term life does not build cash value within the policy. It is not an investment, but pure protection. Whole life insurance is permanent life insurance for your entire lifetime, as long as you pay the premiums. It builds cash value within the policy. You may be able to take a loan out from the cash that builds inside the policy.
