This will probably come as a surprise to many of you, but life insurance plays a huge part in the assets value of nearly every bank doing business today. The banks buy so much cash value life insurance that this type of asset has earned its own name: &#8220;Bank Owned Life Insurance.&#8221; Bank-owned life insurance [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Background on Bank-owned Life Insurance", url: "http://www.my-life-insured.com/blog/bank-owned-life-insurance/" });</script>]]></description>

Most of us know enough to have auto insurance when we do any amount of driving in our car. And having homeowner insurance when you own your own home just makes perfect sense.

The headline &#8220;suicide&#8221; probably jumped out at you like a red flag in front of a mad bull. Suicide is nothing to take lightly, and it certainly isn’t in this case here. Chantix, an anti-smoking drug created by the pharmaceutical mega-giant Pfizer, has been linked to cases of depression, psychiatric problems and even suicide.

The fact is, the great majority of us simply don&#8217;t want to think about whether or not we&#8217;re ready to…die. I mean, who&#8217;s ready to die, right?

The last thing you want to have to think about when you&#8217;re deciding on your life insurance planning and who will benefit after you&#8217;re gone, is whether or not your children with special needs will be taken care of properly.
