Welcome back to Family Raksha Insights & Guide! I’m Raj Shankar and in this edition, we’re uncovering the often-overlooked benefits of life insurance. While life insurance is typically associated with providing financial support to loved ones after you’re gone, it offers much more than that. Let’s explore how life insurance can be a versatile tool for both your financial planning and peace of mind.
Life insurance is more than just a safety net for your family after you pass away. Here are some hidden benefits that make it an essential part of your financial strategy:
Wealth Accumulation: Certain types of life insurance policies, such as whole life or universal life, build cash value over time. This cash value can be borrowed against or even used as collateral for loans, providing a source of funds for emergencies or opportunities.
Tax Advantages: The death benefit from a life insurance policy is generally paid out tax-free to beneficiaries. Additionally, the cash value growth in a permanent life insurance policy is tax-deferred, meaning you won’t pay taxes on the gains as long as they remain within the policy.
Supplemental Retirement Income: If you have a permanent life insurance policy, you can access the cash value to supplement your retirement income. This can be a valuable addition to your retirement planning, especially if other investments don’t perform as expected.
Protection Against Chronic Illness: Some life insurance policies include riders that allow you to access your death benefit early if you’re diagnosed with a chronic illness or need long-term care. This can provide crucial financial support during challenging times.
Estate Planning: Life insurance can be a powerful tool in estate planning, helping to cover estate taxes or providing an inheritance for heirs, ensuring your legacy is preserved.
