For those who depend on you

Life insurance helps you leave your loved ones with some extra money when the time comes, to cover things like funeral expenses, outstanding loans, or anything else they might need the money for.

And while many life insurance companies don’t cover seniors, Ethos guarantees a policy for anyone 66-85 years old. You’ll be approved in a matter of minutes, regardless of your medical history and without medical exams – all you have to do is answer a few health questions.

Depending on certain factors, you can expect a policy for up to $30,000. And with a secure rate that will never increase, you’re covered for life.
