HarvelleLife Insurance Agent, Brokers Revolution,Many life insurance experts recommend about 6 to 8 times your annual salary for the amount of term life insurance that you may need; however, the figure will depend on your financial needs and goals. You have to factor in that mortgage, education expenses for children...basically whatever your family will need to survive and thrive when you're gone. Of course, since term life insurance is for a specific period of time, you will need to calculate how long you need this certain amount of money as well.Answered on May 23, 2013flag this answer
