You can shop around for good term policies. If you are a cpa, you can get good rates through AICPA. Do not buy insurance that someone tells you is also an investment. Permanent insurance is a rip off

I’m 32, married with a child. I have permanent policies on all three of us and about $1.5 million in term. The permanent policies are through Northwestern Mutual and my term policy is through Lincoln. Also have like 2-3x my salary through my employer, but that obviously goes if/when I leave my company

Got a non-convertible 30 yr term, and a convertible 20 yr term policy for my husband and I each. We are freelancers so we wanted to make sure we’re covered. Went through an insurance brokerage and ended up with policies from AIG, ANICO, and William Penn.

Offtopic: Which is the best health insurance (company) to buy for parents? Please suggest as per prior firsthand experience in claims, settlement, premium etc.

My parent has a star health policy for which the renewal premium is drastically increasing (almost by 50%) every year at age 51.
With such increase I do not think it will be viable for long term. So planning to switch/port.
