Life insurance is important because it’s a simple answer to a very difficult question: How will my loved ones manage financially if something were to happen to me?
What are the different types of life insurance?
Life insurance generally falls into two categories:

Permanent life insurance provides lifelong protection, as long as you pay the premiums.
