Term life and universal life are the two life insurance options National Western Life offers. Term life is a type of coverage that remains in force for a limited amount of time, usually a contracted number of years. If the insured dies within that set time period, the death benefits will be paid to the beneficiary of the policy. This type of insurance is usually the least expensive. In general, the younger you are the cheaper the premiums.
Universal life is a type of permanent life insurance that lasts for the lifetime of the insured. With this flexible premium product, premium payment varies each year. The payments go into an account that earns interest, a cash accumulation. Insurance charges are taken directly from the account and the coverage remains in force as long as the acount has enough money in it to pay the insurance charges.
