Replacement of Income:

No one likes to imagine what it would be like when the worst happens. If people depend upon your income, such as young children, spouse, dependent adults or parents, proper planning can save them from great financial difficulty.

When a family's main breadwinner dies, the survivors no longer have that person's income to depend upon. But family members must still go on living and that takes money. There may be little or no cash passing to them by law or will. Unless the deceased had life insurance, the family may receive only a mortgaged home, perhaps an automobile that's not completely paid for and a pile of other debts.

The family's financial needs not only continue as before the breadwinner's death, usually they are increased, particularly in the few months immediately following the breadwinner's death.

If both spouses earn good incomes and one spouse dies, the family's financial needs will be essentially the same types as those of the one-income family. The survivors would need income equal to the amount of the deceased's income to maintain essentially the same standard of living.

Life Insurance is an invaluable way to protect your families future income needs.
