American Equity Investment  Life Says

American Equity Investment Life offers three types of life insurance: single premium universal life, simplified issue whole life insurance and term life insurance.  Single premium universal life was designed for the investment-minded. The plan provides permanent life insurance in one premium payment, and  the company assists customers in allocating premium dollars among professionally managed investment options and a fixed account.  The money goes to work right away, accumulating cash value. Simplified issue whole life insurance is also a type of permanent life insurance.  Just as long as the premium payments are made, death benefits will be paid to the beneficiaries after the policyholder’s death.  The term “simplified issue” is based around the idea that no medical exam is necessary to be approved, just answering some simple questions. Term life is a cheap life insurance option that provides coverage for a specified number of years.  American Equity Investment Life offers plans in 5, 10, 15 and 20 year terms.  If the policyholder dies within that contracted period, death benefits will be paid to the family.  Otherwise, the policy expires at the end of the term and must be renewed if future coverage is desired.
