Term ROP

Term ROP

In a very broad sense, there are two types of life insurance: permanent life insurance and term life insurance.

Permanent life insurance is a type of life insurance that can stay in force for your entire life, as long as you pay your premiums in full. Permanent life insurance usually, but not always, builds cash value for you that you can use for expenses later in life.

 

Term life insurance is only in force for a specified amount of time: usually 10, 15, 20 or 30 years. At the end of the term, your coverage expires and you will need to either convert your policy to a permanent life insurance plan (if available) or purchase a new policy for a new term. To counter the drawback of an expiration date, you will find that term life insurance is somewhat less expensive than permanent life insurance.
