Is your life insurance through work enough?

For many people, the answer is probably not.

Most employer-provided life insurance offers around 1 to 2 times your annual salary. While that’s a great benefit, it’s often not enough to protect a family from mortgage payments, everyday expenses, childcare, college costs, and other financial obligations.

That’s why many people choose to have a personal life insurance policy in addition to their work coverage.

A policy you own:
✅ Goes with you if you change jobs.
✅ Lets you choose the amount of coverage that’s right for your family.
✅ Helps provide long-term financial security for the people who depend on you.

Your work policy is a great start. A personal policy helps fill the gaps.
