Whole Life Insurance – Lifetime Protection
What Is Whole Life Insurance?
Whole life is permanent coverage that lasts a lifetime as long as premiums are paid. Policies include a guaranteed death benefit and build cash value over time, providing a stable foundation for long-term planning from the North Shore to the Upper East Side.
Benefits of Whole Life
Count on lifelong coverage, level premiums that don’t rise with age, and cash value that can be accessed via policy loans. For New York families, it’s a steady option for legacy goals, supplemental funds, or estate planning conversations.
Whole Life vs. Term Life
Whole life costs more but never expires and builds value; term is typically cheaper but temporary and has no savings component. Gail Siemer Insurance can help determine which path matches your priorities in Brooklyn, Queens, or Nassau.
Uses of Whole Life Insurance
Common uses include leaving an inheritance, covering final arrangements, or building a conservative, accessible cash reserve. Some clients use dividends (if available) to enhance coverage or reduce out-of-pocket costs.
Cash Value and Dividends
Cash value grows at a guaranteed rate, and certain policies may be eligible for dividends from participating carriers. Details vary—Gail will explain options and trade-offs so you can choose confidently.
Questions Gail Hears Most (Quick Answers)
Can I borrow from my policy?
Yes—loans don’t require a credit check, but unpaid balances reduce the death benefit.
How soon does cash value build?
It’s slower at first, then grows over time; timelines vary by policy.
Do premiums ever change?
They’re designed to stay level for life.
