14: The True Cost of Term Insurance
Manage episode 486001300 series 3639347
Is term insurance to blame for the fact that every generation essentially has to start from zero, financially?
In this episode, I break down the real financial math behind term insurance versus whole life insurance, revealing how a seemingly 'cheap' $1,100 annual term premium can actually cost a family over $43 million across three generations. I'll show you why comparing these two types of insurance requires understanding net compound costs, not just premium prices.
