You have really said the most important things when it comes to life insurance. The only thing you didn't really capture well is that we have two types of life insurance. While there is benefit for the direct insurance in one type of life insurance, other one will allow the benefit to go to the beneficiary

The main things one has to know about life insurance is that it is a coverage for a whole lifetime. It also serve as an investment for the client in the sense that the insured will have to keep paying premium and when it’s time for compensation, it will come along with profits

Thanks for this information , but for more clarity under permanent insurance , would the person still get the full benefits even if he or she stopped paying premium along the line , because the pandemic caused a lot of issues as many people were unable to pay premium during that time

That's a very good question that I am sure will be bothering many people as well. As far as I know, the insurance company has two things to do, it is either they don't give the insured person the compensation using the alibi that the insured person breached the contract between the two parties or they pay half to the purchaser of this insurance policy.

In other type of insurance policy that I have checked on its like they actually do not give full compensation to the insurer if he was unable to complete the premium payment and that's if it's even with the agreement with the insurance company too , because if some don't complete the premium the agreement would be terminated
