The 5 Year Term Life Insurance Policy Or Rider
by: Donald Lusan
5 year term life insurance has been around in insurance circles for a very long time. It can be sold as a policy or as a rider to a permanent life insurance policy. It was never promoted much by life insurance agents perhaps because of it's extremely low premium which results in a very low commission. Another possibility is that 5 years is a very short period of time for a life insurance policy.
Why 5 Year Term Life Insurance
5 year term life does have it's place in the portfolios of many life insurance buyers and can fulfill a very important need. If you have a short term need for life insurance then this type of insurance may be for you. If you find it necessary to take out a loan for a short period of time a five year term policy on your life can assure the lender that if you should die before the loan is repaid they will get back their money. Certainly that is a good reason to buy this type of insurance. You may take the loan to pay for a college education either for yourself or a child or grandchild.
The face amount of the 5 year term policy remains level for the duration and so does the premium. Even though it is initially taken out for 5 years some companies allow you to continue beyond the initial 5 year period at a higher premium. The death benefit is more often than not free of income taxes. You may convert your policy to permanent insurance in the future.
Waiver Of Premium Rider
It may be wise to add a waiver of premium rider to your 5 year term life insurance policy. If you should become disabled, anytime after 6 months of disability, the life insurance company will take over the payment of your premiums for you, even if it is for the rest of your life. Think about it for a moment. Do you realize that people become temporarily disabled an average of about 5 times during their lifetimes. If you become disabled for at least 6 months with most companies they will pay your 5 year term life insurance premium for you. Now isn't that amazing.
Accidental Death Benefit Or Double Indemnity Rider
The famous double indemnity rider can also be attached to your policy. If you should die in an accident the life insurance company will pay to your beneficiary twice the face amount. Let us suppose you bought a $500,000 5 year term policy with one unit of accidental death benefit for each $1,000 of your policy and you died in an accident. The life insurance company would pay $1,000,000 to your family. That would be just beautiful, wouldn't it.

Car Insurance For High-Risk Drivers
by: Sintilia Miecevole
If you are classified as a high-risk driver, finding car insurance can be quite a hassle. Some insurance companies will deny insurance to high-risk drivers, while others just choose to charge extremely high premiums. No matter which insurance company you choose, you will most likely end up with a high rate. However, every insurance company is different, so it is important to shop around for the best rates available.
There are many different factors that can contribute to a high-risk driver classification. However, your driving record is the most important factor in determining your risk status. If you have been involved in several accidents over the course of a year or within two to three years, these incidents will negatively affect your record even if they were not your fault. Being involved in any accident can deem you a reckless driver with a penchant for getting into dangerous situations....
