Life insurance is a vital component of a solid financial plan and one of the most affordable ways to safeguard those who rely on you financially.

What would happen to your family if you were to pass away suddenly? Could they maintain their current standard of living? Would your children be able to attend college? Could your spouse manage financially on a single income?

Life insurance is crucial if you have children, are married, or have any debt. If all three situations apply to you, it's even more important. Here are some additional reasons to consider life insurance:

• Charitable donations
• Paying federal death and estate taxes
• Creating an inheritance for your heirs
• Covering final expenses

Many people make the mistake of selecting life insurance coverage based on a guess or an arbitrary number without considering the effects of inflation on the insurance benefits.

Working with an independent agent like us allows for a thorough needs analysis to determine the exact amount of coverage necessary to protect those who depend on you.

The amount of coverage you require depends on several factors, including:

• The number of children you have
• Your potential future earnings
• Your marital status
• Your spouse's potential future earnings
• Your and your spouse's ages
• The amount of debt you have
