At your age, you essentially have every available life insurance product on the market from 10 year term to 30 year term, to whole life insurance.Compare Quotes Now! “Should I be purchasing term or whole life insurance?” is a very common question I am asked.Whenever someone asks me how long of a term length they should buy or whether they should purchase term life or whole life, I ask, “Are you purchasing this life insurance because you need it for some period of time, or because you want it for the rest of your life?” This is an important distinction.
Most people purchase term life insurance to cover the loss of income in the event of death, and will only need it for a short period of time until they retire. Others don’t care if they retire or not; they want some coverage in place for as long as they live. For these clients, I recommend whole life insurance.Please be sure to compare a 30 year term quote to a quote for “Level to age 100” or “Level to Age 121”. The 30 year term policy provided by Genworth is typically 40% cheaper, and will still provide coverage all the way to age 94. That will carry most 64 year olds past their life expectancy, but you do take the risk of living past age 94 and facing a substantial premium increase at that time.Some people jokingly tell me, “There’s no way I’m living past 80 years old!” For them, a 30 year term would be perfect.
RELATED: 5 Critical Tips You Must Know Before Buying Life Insurance Special Considerations at Age 64 When life insurance companies assess an applicant, they’ll consider health, smoking status, look for any hazardous hobbies, travels, or occupation, and also consider your height and weight.Height & Weight With regard to height/weight, all companies publish a build chart showing the maximum you can weigh to qualify for a certain rating class. It’s important to understand that some companies use a different, more lenient build chart for people age 65 or older.Let’s look at an example.
A 64 year old male who is 5’10 235 pounds would be classified in the Select rate class at Genworth due to build (their third best class). However, a year later, at age 65, that same male, if he’s still the same height and weight, would be able to qualify for Genworth’s Preferred class, their 2nd best class, because Genworth uses a more forgiving build chart for individuals age 65 or older.For most of our clients who are 64, we discuss how the knowledge that you may be able to qualify for a better rate next year can influence your decision today about what policy you apply for.Pre-existing health conditions?
