2. I’m sure you will be careful not to burn your house down by mistake. Will you stop your home insurance because of that? Again in some ways its an investment , if i burn my house down i will be getting some money from the insurance company either for the content or for the actual house. |

Goodenoch: In this conversation about life insurance I hope people are taking into consideration that it’s something that’s intended to come into effect in case of an unexpected death while still ‘young’ and when one still has dependents, not when all your children are grown and have struck out on their own and are capable of fending for themselves in your absence.
It’s not an investment you’ll be looking to get returns from, just like your car/house insurances are also not investments you hope to ever have to get returns from.
The notion that the best way is to spend your money with them while you’re alive is good but do you know how long you’ll be around to continue making money and spending it with your family on an ongoing basis? In short, life insurance serves a completely different purpose. It’s for if you die in an accident or have a heart attack at 30, 40, 50 or 60-something years old. What will your family eat? How will they pay off the mortgage? How will your wife/husband be able to care for the children on their own in the absence of your income and your input in childcare etc?
For people who have enough assets that can be disposed off to fund things like that (eg you have investment properties separate from your main residence or a substantial shares portfolio), you might not need life insurance.
For everyone else, please don’t allow the mindset that ‘they will get money when I die’ to prevent you from paying the 15 pounds or so per month to ensure your family doesn’t suffer unexpectedly soon. Its an investment in some ways because your family will cash out at some point I rather put that £15 or £20 into s&p 500 monthly or in Equity fund in Nigeria than life insurance . Don't worry i will be careful so as not to die in an accident or have heart attack. |

Kenn55: I think instead of doing life insurance till death, it is better to take a 10 or 20 year term life insurance depending on how old your kids are.
The essence of life insurance should be to protect your kids during their dependent stage. If you have a 5 year old child and you take a 20 year term life insurance, it is expected that after 20 years, your child would have become independent and would no longer need that backup. If God forbid, you kick bucket when he/she is just 12 years old for example, the payout should be able to payoff the mortgage to guarantee them shelter, pay for their education and upkeep till they become settled.
You don't want the living standards of your wife and kids to drop or to rely on one wicked uncle, relatives or Gofund me to survive in the event of early kicking of bucket. It should also cover you in the event your wife kicks bucket first so it is not just for a man as most middle class families run on both husband and wife joint income
In summary, life insurance isn't supposed to be a wealth creation for the living but to secure your family during the period they will need it most in event the unexpected happens. It works for middle class, the rich wouldn't need it, their will is enough. I totally get your point however what I’m saying is that life insurance is not the only option, there are other generational wealth creation vehicles that the whole family enjoys while here on earth. Life insurance creates unhealthy expectations in a family as the insurance holder gets older. |

Justwise and Goke7, seems to think everyone would live till 120 years old, hence not requiring life assurance policies...... 😜 Actually that’s not the point, we are basically saying that there are other ways of looking after family after death..which involves you enjoying the rewards of your hardworking together with your family. They don’t need you to die first before those benefits. |

directonpc: Zahra29 is a dangerous person, and unfortunately, our community has many of them. Imagine making someone like the voice of people like us because they look like us. They'd make life hellish for people starting out in the same system that was favourable to them. Thank God man no be God. I disagree with you on this, i do not agree with her in certain issues regarding immigration policies by current and previous government but calling her dangerous is well over the top. We need a balance view in this thread and Zahra29 contributions is essential. I know that she does come across as the female version of Alastair Campbell during Tony Blair time but she does it in a meaningful way. |

Zahra29: Yes it is.
Of course no British citizen pays IHS and tax at the same time, because the IHS is specifically for migrants who are not yet permanently settled i.e. who have lived in the UK for less than 5/6 years in most cases.
Compare a migrant at 40 who has worked in the UK for 2 years and paid £2,000 IHS + income tax - there is *absolutely* no way he has paid more into the system than his British peer who has been working since 21 (and part time since he was 16 / 17 years) and has thus paid into the system for >20 years.
1. The vast majority of adult Brits have paid something at some point. 2. They are British and are entitled to the NHS. It was created to serve the British. 3. Let's not forget that there are tens of thousands of migrant dependents who pay nothing (exempt from IHS and don't work) but still get free medical treatment. You are making it look as if all Nigerians that came here with work or student visa came at the age of 40, many are in their 20s and 30s. Yes British citizens are entitled to use the NHS because its their country just as migrants are also entitled to use NHS because their paid for it, i mean OVER paid for it. The British should be the last country on planet earth to complain about immigration, the same people that went around the world shop lifting countries now have the gut to complain about immigrants that paid to be here. People i have issues with are those who came here to commit crime and break the law, apart from those set of people ..the rest should enjoy what they paid for. |
