    What is Long-Term Care Insurance and Is It Worth It?

    When you start shopping for long-term care insurance, you’ll realize quickly that it’s pricey and complicated. And that can leave you wondering whether this form of coverage is worth it. Unfortunately, there’s no short answer to that question.

    Do I Need an Elder Law Attorney?

    You wouldn’t hire an accountant to fix your car, or a mechanic to prepare your tax returns. By the same token, a general practice attorney isn’t the best choice for legal matters involving the seniors in your life. The better choice is an elder law attorney, who specializes in legal issues that arise for seniors and their families.

    Life Settlement Calculator

    You’ve heard about the possibility of selling a life insurance policy you don’t need or can’t afford, and you’re thinking you could use the cash to pay medical or long-term care bills, or to invest in a more comfortable retirement. But before you take the step of contacting a life settlement company, you’d like to get some idea of how much money you can get for your policy – and whether you’re even eligible to sell it. An online life settlement calculator can provide a quick general assessment of your eligibility to sell your life insurance policy, but it cannot replace the in-depth medical underwriting process required to accurately estimate the value of that policy.

    What is Whole Life Insurance?

    Whole life insurance, sometimes called “straight life” or “ordinary life,” is a type of permanent life insurance and is the most well-known form of life insurance. Whole life insurance policies last the whole life of the policyholder and are paid out to the policyholder’s beneficiary or beneficiaries upon death provided that premiums are paid. It’s important to note that because whole life insurance lasts throughout the policyholder’s life, premiums are typically higher and cost more than term life insurance. Along with death benefits, whole life insurance also comes with a type of savings called “cash value” and may grow tax-deferred interest.
