Life insurance often generates mixed feelings; for many, it’s a complicated and somewhat uncomfortable subject. Yet, it plays a vital role in comprehensive financial planning for a significant number of individuals and families.
One of the biggest challenges in understanding life insurance is the abundance of myths and misinterpretations surrounding it. Popular misconceptions abound, such as the belief that life insurance is solely for the elderly, that it’s a scam designed to take your money, or that employer-provided insurance is sufficient for your needs.
