I can only speak for myself- I am a 6th year attorney in a high cost of living area working directly for an insurance company as staff counsel. My base salary is $160k and my bonus was $35k last year. My raises are around 5% per year. Technically, my “cap” right now is $230k base.

Is it one of the major ins companies one would know? This is a great compensation package.

Without a book of business, the cap is probably in the low $200s. With a book, the sky’s the limit.

It can be impossible to deal with financial losses due to declining health or unforeseen circumstances by not having life insurance. In these cases, the solution to your debts (that can affect the financial stability of you or your loved ones) may fall within the category of life insurance.
