For many years, I haven’t even thought about life insurance. I have always felt like it was for “old” people, certainly not for ME. I wasn’t old enough to have it. However, I have been thinking about life insurance since I was in the hospital for 34 days in May and June.
Ever since then, it has really worried me to think that I do not have an insurance policy that would take care of my final arrangements here on earth, and that because I do not have it, my husband would have one more thing to worry about if something happened to me. Even though I want to be cremated, and that would be far less expensive than a full out funeral, there would still be some expense involved in carrying out my wishes.
Life insurance is not really for the person on whom the policy is written. It is for the people they leave behind, to make their life a bit easier once you are gone. I have started to realize just how important it is to plan ahead and think about those people I love, who will be charged with taking care of my remains. I need to look into lifeinsurance.org.uk to see how hard it would be to buy a life insurance policy. What will it take to get you to consider getting a life insurance policy for yourself?
