Great post I would agree on you on this”Life insurance offers you peace of mind.” I think what your doing here is great as your educating people on how things work. Been reading your blog lifeinsurancebyjeff and one called http://termlifeinsurancemales.com/. helps a lot.

Thanks for your comments.

Carrie: I agree with you – buying life insurance provided a huge peace of mind to myself and my husband, Sam, when we did it the first time. But it felt even better when, realizing our circumstances had changed, we went through the process again and upgraded our term life policies so that our children would be protected if we died suddenly. We wanted them to be able to live the life we imagined for them, at least through college and graduate school.

Jared: The cost of buying someone is astronomical. Unfortunately, I lost one of my best friends (at age 47) and his widow asked me to pick out a plot and arrange for the funeral. The cost would be prohibitive to many families. The plot alone was several thousand dollars, and the tombstone his mother picked up cost more than $1,000 on top of that. There were all sorts of other fees, and I’m sure she spend nearly $15,000 by the time she was done with it all.

Thanks for reading the blog and following Jeff. We think he’s pretty smart, too. I hope you’ll forward this blog post to your contacts and connections so we can share the great information we have on the Equifax Finance Blog, and I hope you will join us again.

Second, final expenses. I’ve had to bury a family member, and was completely surprised by the cost and the amount.

Sincerely,
