Here are 9 reasons you should buy life insurance:
- Replace lost income and guarantee the standard of living for your loved ones should you die too soon.
- Cover final burial/cremation expenses.
- Create or cement your legacy (your legacy could involve or be aimed at family, community, charity, church, almost anything that you want to be remembered for).
- Ensure that a business that you have built can continue running uninterrupted.
- Pay taxes and estate fees due upon death (if you own a business, RRSPs, a cottage, a rental property, or any appreciating assets, taxes will have to be paid. The most cost-effective way to pay them is with “Cents-on-the-dollar” life insurance).
- Tax shelter or completely avoid taxes.
- Protect funds from future creditors.
- Guarantee your ability to purchase life insurance in the future when you need it.
- Create a crash-proof, recession-proof, non-fluctuating, long term, guaranteed, cash building asset that can be used to protect against loss of family or business capital due to market volatility.
