Suze Orman is a hack. She gives general advice that generally does not apply to most people.

Everyone's circumstances are different.


Insurance
According to LIMRA, make sure the sum assured can cover the following,

1. 60 months of your current monthly salary
2. Outstanding Loan (Mortgage , Credit card and etc)
3. Get a PA (personal accident) plan as well, because Life Insurance only cover death or permanent disability.
4. Optional health insurance
6. Optional critical illness insurance

If you can have all the above you are well protected

It depends on your age, marital status, debts and many other factors too numerous to list. If you are single and nobody is depending on your income, you don't need insurance past the cost of a funeral however if you have a spouse and children, parents or others who are depending on your income it's advised to get five times your annual salary as a minimum. You are far better off with term insurance and sock any extra money into a 401K or Roth IRA which will accumulate interest over the next 10, 20, 30 or whatever number of years. You'll get some excellent information on the whole insurance industry in the many books by Suze Orman (check your library). I love Suze Orman!!!

You should insured yourself in accordance with your liability. How much money do you think, your dependent should get to live a decent lifestyle? Calculate and you will find the answer. By the way, why don't you become an insurance agent? Insure yourself, and others too.

Enough to cover your exposure.

Whatever you expect to be legally liable for.

Ask yourself first why you believe you need the insurance? Then, what do you want the insurance to do for your survivors? Insurance is all about them, not about you.

So, what do you want the insurance to do for them? Do you want all debt eliminated? If so, what is the total of your debt, including spouses. After debt is paid, including mortgage, how much will your survivors need and for how long? The how long decides on the length of term. How much is what you bring in each month subtracted from combined income now. Do you want mortgage paid in full? Do you want your child(rens) education paid for? Do you want your funeral paid for?

These questions will answer how much you need. As I said before, you first need to decide what you want insurance to do for you. By this, I mean do you want to pay your agent commissions for a good while or do you want to pay one year commission and have your agent never receive another penny from your policy ever again? If the second, you want term. If the first, you want whole life.

Whole life policies have a "savings plan" built into the policy. But insurance and savings should never be commingled. You should buy term and invest the difference. Why? In the whole life policies, you will earn 1-4% interest; the company will charge you, to take out YOUR money, 6-8% interest; and they could make you wait up to six months to receive YOUR money. Not to mention, that in the first couple years, there is NO money in the savings plan. When you die, your survivors will receive either face amount (how much policy is covering you) OR cash amount ( far less than the face amount). They will choose face amount and the company will keep ALL of the cash that has built up.

it depends upon your age, income, family financial position.

general rule the total sum assured should is at least 5 times of your annual income.
don't go for just any policy. Go for Unit linked insurance policy with low Allocation charges ( not more than 5%) and high sum assured (30 times of your annual premium) with high performance.
It is the best insurance and investment tool of mordern times.

Short answer... it's different for everybody, but rule of thumb is 4x-8x your annual income. To be certain of the amount, you typically want to consider the impact to your family:
1. What is the lost income from your death?
2. Do you have outstanding debts you want paid off to ease the financial burden (mortgage and car, plus consumer debt)?
3. How much do you need for a funeral (min $10k)
4. Funds needed for the future to send kids to college?
5. Money your spouse may need to take time off work to handle circumstances resulting from your death
6. New expenses - e.g., will kids need day care if they didnt' before?

its limited up to value of articals.
if you want to purcheses for yourself,there are differenr methods of differents companies to calculate your value.
HLV (Human Life Value) concept is used for it.
You can purchese insurance only up to your HLV. one bagger cant purchese insurance of one carod.In short its depend upon your yearly income and Age


raja k
it depend on your age and the nature of your job. if u r an employee u can insure yourself upto 60 times of your monthly salary. and it is important to take atleast one term policy because the only aim of term policies is to protect your family.
