A common and easy way to come up with a coverage estimate is to multiply your annual income by 10. Another way is to calculate your long-term financial obligations and then subtract your assets.

We offer both term life insurance (ages 20-65) and guaranteed whole life insurance (ages 66-85). Our term length options range from 10 to 30 years, with coverage amounts from $20K to $2 million, depending on what you qualify for. Learn more about our policies here.
