My wife sells insurance so I am sure she views me as a customer but I am curious how much life insurance you 30 and 40 somethings have out on yourself?

35 year term wowza. Have 10 pay perm policy for 1m and 4m in 10yr term, total debts of about 190k after payoff proceeds could be invested extremely conservatively and provide enough income (w/o touching principal) for my wife to quit working if I passed away.

I dont understand how a financial advisor would not have life insurance. Life insurance is the foundation of any financial planning. Your wife does not view you as a customer, she is trying to protect your family from financial distress!

How much do you think your life is worth?

$1.5 M probably getting more by January.

The answer is different for everyone. It's dependent on assets already accumulated and what the death benefit is supposed to be used for. Generic way is income replacement from now until retirement.

$1mill term, $500k dividend paying WL

I was under my moms healthcare policy until she lost her job in February. Am I able to enroll with EY even though I’ve missed open enrollment?

Incoming MBA, I have my tuition paid for and rent covered (I will be an RA). So the only thing I need to pay for is food and entertainment. Do you think 20k is enough to last me through the 2 years? I will make a little money interning in the summer, so that would be a safety valve if I blow through the 20k.

Or… should I take a small loan?

No high fives, pats on the back, sharing earbuds to listen to a new song, or consoling an upset friend. Even facial expressions are lost. Tough times.
