“Life insurance can help to build generational wealth”.

A lesson from my boyfriend that I had never previously considered. It’s one way the rich get richer.

Some policies cost as much as a cup of coffee a month. If you can afford to put the money away, do it.

I know some people can be superstitious when it comes to life insurance or writing out wills, but it’s so important.

It’s also a way to lift the burden should the worst happen. Funerals can be expensive. As can taking care of families in general.

It’s worth having conversations with family about life cover. Ask your parents if they have insurance. If they don’t, talk to them about looking into it. Also, get life cover yourself. Even if you don’t have kids, someone else can be named as the beneficiary. Including friends.
