lesliesguy | What type of life insurance should I be looking at for my 64 year old mother? |
She is in fairly good health, doesnt smoke or have much of a medical history |

Probably her savings account - which, at 64, should hopefully be enough to cover a burial. At her age, you'd pay so much for the premium, it would only be a year or two before you'd have enough out of pocket already to cover a burial anyway. And she probably has no minor children. |

About the only insurance a 64 year old needs would be burial insurance or some sort of life policy in an amount that would cover funeral expenses.
At her age, she is not likely to still have dependents so what is the purpose of life insurance? Normally you buy life insurance so that if you die, your spouse and children will have that money to replace your income that you are no longer earning. At age 64, she is either retired or close to it, and unless she was still having children in her late 40's, she shouldn't have minor children running around.
So, the first thing you need to ask yourself is what is your purpose for this policy?
Web link below that explains the difference between Whole Life and Term. Also, check AARP's website.
Whatever you do, be careful. I see those adds on TV that advertise life insurance for elderly people that only costs $20.00 per unit. Problem is, they don't tell you what a unit is. If a unit is $1,000. worth of coverage, you'll be paying $200 a month for a $10,000 policy. In any case, it's going be fairly expensive to insure a 64 year old. You might consider just putting the monthly premium into a savings account and saving up for funeral expenses. |

A 20 year term life policy would be the best and most affordable. Very unintrusive as well. The insurance carrier will come to your house and take some blood to test just to make sure she does not have AIDS and is'nt lying about not smoking. |

Term life insurance will do just fine. You can comparison-shop at the website below to make sure you're getting the best deal |

a 15 or 20 year term is good. During that time, you should save money up in case she outlives the term. |

if she has no liabilities and you are able to fund her final expenses, i would advise you to not get any insurance...
the basis of insurance is to pool small amounts of money so as to have access to a large amount should the need arises when the "insured event" occurs.
if there is no need for the large amount, i.e. amount is affordable, event will not occur, then there is no need for that particular insurance, it is not cheap to insure at the age of 64 for a reasonable sum and the premiums paid might end up being more than the returns.
an alternative would be to engage in a regular savings investment plan and reap returns instead of paying for insurance, that is IF there is no need for the insurance, i.e. sufficient funds |

medicaid and medigap, and some kind of dental and glasses insurance, as well as for perscriptions. After a certain age everything hits at once. Some people also look into some kind of catastrophic insurance. Be sure she has a living will and a will and one for power of attorney, at the very least. Once she retires she may not have much money so be sure to get the best policy for the least amount. |

Depending on your financial situation, there are many available options. However, if you are looking at keeping premiums at a minimum, there are products designed for seniors.
A word to this wise when searching... don't forfeit security for a few dollars. Go with a solid, financially stable company that has a proven track record.
The company I work for offer a product tailored to seniors. The face amount of the policy is $!0k .... has a very short application and the premiums are relatively cheap in comparison to other products that you may compare against. This policy is called a "Final Expense".
Check with your local State Farm agent for additional details on the policy, benefits and premiums. They have a wealth of knowledge to share. Also, there are a few other plans that may be more lucrative in the way of investing and death benefit depending again on your financial situation.
Good luck! |
