		<description><![CDATA[Life insurance proceeds are separate from an estate and are paid directly to the beneficiaries. The will is executed through the courts called probate.

This is a very costly mistake. Life insurance proceeds are not taxed unless they are left to an estate and they be come taxed along with the estate.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When a person or persons is named as beneficiary of a life insurance policy, the death benefit usually passes to the beneficiary outside of probate and the will does not affect the policy at all.
