Most insurance you buy will benefit you by providing the protection you need. Life insurance is for those you love. At the same time, it can have financial benefits for you when you need it. Life insurance needs change throughout your life. Keeping your insurance at the level you need takes a little effort and an insurance agent you trust. Christensen Insurance Group in Sandy, UT is just such an agency. We are independent agents, which gives us access to multiple carriers providing our customers with more choices. 

When you begin your career, you may not give much thought to life insurance. That is probably okay since you may not have anyone who depends on your income to survive except you. You are missing an opportunity to purchase life insurance at the best rates by not paying attention when you are young. Starting with a whole life or 30-year term policy in your twenties can prove to be a wise move over the long haul. 

As your life progresses and you get married and start a family, your life insurance needs change. Now you do have people who depend on you. This is a good time to sit down with your financial planner or a trusted insurance agent. Discuss the amount of life insurance that is enough to maintain your family if you are no longer there to support them. Many things go into the decision. How many children do you have and what are their ages? Does your spouse work? Will you be providing total support or supplemental? Do you have a mortgage to pay off? Do you want to make sure your kids have money for college? 

How much life insurance you need is something only you can decide. Contact Christensen Insurance Group in Sandy, UT to discuss your life insurance needs.
