According to Limra in 2011, 7 in 10 of U.S. households own some type of life insurance. Nearly half of U.S. households own individual life insurance policies. Fifty-eight million or half of U.S. households say that they need more life insurance. Most individual life insurance policies in force are permanent (71%) rather than term (29%). Life insurance is one of the most important purchases you will ever make and it is less expensive than most people think.
