Reader’s Question:
I have heard of the new life insurance product called the universal life insurance. What are the special features of universal life? Would it be available in Nebraska ?

Certainly, Judith, your insurer in Omaha will carry the universal life as part of the life insurance product line. Thank you for the question as it will give me an opportunity to explain the special features of the universal life insurance.
The closest life insurance to universal is whole life insurance. Both offer permanent protection, as well as tax-free cash values and competitive interest rates. Their biggest contrast is the payment of premium and in the calculation of death benefit. Whole life insurance is the more conventional kind of insurance where the owner pays a fixed monthly rate for a fixed death benefit package. Universal life is at the opposite end of the pole, in this case. Universal life lets the owner choose the amount and frequency of payments, just as long as the annual premium is completed. Consequently, coverage and death benefits can vary depending on your needs and cash value. You can also expand your coverage by paying a higher premium. Also, universal life can have several rider policies, dependent on your wishes. Ask your insurance company in Nebraska on the available riders that can be included in your universal life policy.

Universal life insurance will appeal to more daring investors, I guess. It has high risk components but with equally high yielding investments. Also, if you have an irregular income, universal life will be the ideal life insurance for you.
