Life Insurance FAQs

Is life insurance an asset?

Yes, life insurance can be considered an asset in some cases. This is because a policyholder can generally borrow against the cash value of their life insurance policy or use it as collateral for a loan, both of which are considered assets. Additionally, since the death benefit proceeds are not typically taxed (depending on your state), they may also be viewed as an asset when calculating net worth. However, it is important to note that in most cases both the cash value and death benefit from a life insurance policy will only become available after the insured has passed away, so these assets should generally not be counted as part of any current financial calculations.

Are life insurance premiums tax deductible?

No, life insurance premiums are not tax deductible. This is because the proceeds of a life insurance policy are typically paid out upon the death of the insured and thus do not generate any current income for which to claim a deduction. Additionally, since most policies have no cash value associated with them until after death, there is nothing to deduct from taxes at the time of purchase either. However, some employers may offer group life insurance policies as part of employee benefits packages, in which case the employer may be able to write off those premiums as a business expense. Speak with your insurance agent or financial advisor for more information on potential tax deductions related to life insurance premiums you may be eligible for.

What is the difference between Permanent and Term life insurance?

Term insurance is temporary and only provides pure death benefit protection for a specific period of time. Term is the most affordable and does not accumulate cash value. Permanent insurance is designed to provide lifetime protection. The initial premium for Permanent is higher than Term, but it has the potential to accumulate cash value that can be accessed to help with lifetime needs.

How much life insurance do I need?

The amount of life insurance needed varies for everyone as it depends on their unique circumstance and financial goals. Immediate obligations and future income needs should be considered when determining how much life insurance coverage is enough. There are many calculators out there to help you figure out how much you may need to maintain your lifestyle as well as help provide financial security to those that depend on you. Life Happens, A Nonprofit Organization, has a simple yet effective calculator, which can be found here.

Who needs life insurance?

If someone will be adversely affected financially by your unexpected death then you need life insurance.  Life insurance can provide financial protection for your beneficiaries, for both personal and business reasons.
