Life insurance isn't an easy subject to think about, much less talk about with your loved ones. But it's one of the more crucial pieces of insurance, because it projects your family if something happens to you.

Even though the basic concept of life insurance is simple to grasp, the different offerings can be bewildering. Term life insurance only pays in the event of your death; it's generally the cheapest type. Whole life insurance combines life insurance with an investment vehicle, and the policy builds a cash value you can borrow against as you age. It's a way to save for retirement, but it's more costly than term insurance.
