4. How Much Life Insurance is Needed?
From the old LDS Handbook for Families it states: • Insure the family’s breadwinner first, then others, if
desired, as income permits. At a minimum, get enough life insurance to pay for such things as a funeral, taxes, mortgage on the home, car payments, and other debts. The next priority should be to get enough insurance that, supplemented by any government retirement benefits the surviving spouse may be entitled to, there will be sufficient to provide for the family and to make provisions for the children’s education and missions. “Handbook for Families: Preparing for Emergencies,” Ensign, Dec. 1990, 59.

Types of Life Insurance Products (continued)
• The differences in life insurance products relate to:
• Mortality Risk (for insurer): The risk that the insured dies during the contract period.
• Investment Risk: The risk of who takes responsibility for the outcome of the investments
• Policy Cost: What are the costs of the policy compared to other policies
• Investment Choice: The types of investment vehicles the non-mortality portion of the premiums are invested in, i.e., bonds, stock, etc.
• Policy Flexibility: The ability to change the types of investments, monthly premium amounts, or the face value amount during the life of the contract.

E. Understand which type of insurance is best for you and the steps to buying Life Insurance
• First Presidency Message – March 2008• “Consideration should also be given to investing
wisely with responsible and established financial institutions. We are also concerned that there are those who use relationships of trust to promote risky or even fraudulent investment and business schemes. While all investments carry an element of risk, that risk can be managed by following sound and proven financial principles: first, avoid unnecessary debt, especially consumer debt; second, before investing, seek advice from a qualified and licensed financial advisor; and third, be wise.”
