Life Insurance
    Death is certain. Let us help you protect your most valuable assets .Life insurance
    is one way to say I love and I care. The Boyd Group specializes in life insurance.
    No one wants to talk about death, but if you educate people about the different
    types of life insurance, many of them realize their need for coverage. Whether its
    individual coverage or group coverage you are looking for we can help.

    Types of Life Insurance
  • Permanent
    This type of coverage lasts as long as the premium is paid or until death. Permanent
    life insurance is similar to purchasing a piece of property. The value of the property
    is the death benefit and has an inverse relationship to a mortgage. When you buy a
    home you decide on a price, borrow that amount from the bank and you pay the
    note down hopefully to zero one day. When you buy permanent life insurance you
    pay up the note until the cash value equals the amount of the death benefit you
    chose. The policy builds cash value, better known as equity in relation to a piece of
    property. You can borrow money against your home with a home equity line, but if
    you die the money must be paid back. You can also borrow money against your
    permanent life insurance and if you die there is no need to worry about paying back
    the amount you borrowed. The insurance company will simply reduce the death
    benefit by the amount of the outstanding loan. Try negotiating that concept with the
    bank.
    Permanent insurance is more expensive but if funded properly premiums will remain
    level for life. Permanent life insurance is a great tool to use when estate planning
    given that life insurance proceeds pass to a beneficiary tax free.

  • Temporary
    Better known as term insurance, this type of coverage is good to cover large ticket
    items such as a child's college education or a mortgage. It last as long as you need
    coverage and can be purchased in terms of 1 year up to 30 years. The longer the
    term the more expensive the annual or monthly premium. When the term you
    choose expires many term plans terminate. Always make sure to buy a plan that is
    renewable and convertible....just in case health issue have arisen and prevent you
    from shopping elsewhere. Temporary coverage is much cheaper than permanent
    coverage but builds no equity. Term insurance is similar to renting a home verses
    buying a home.
