The term verses whole life battle has kind of resulted in the marriage of several concepts. The best way to approach this is by taking a more simplistic approach. Term insurance is for temporary needs. Whole life insurance is for permanent lifetime needs. It seems to me that we need both types in our insurance portfolios. A permanent base of whole life, universal life or variable life with additional term policies or riders seems to be the balanced approach. If you are opposed to permanent forms of life insurance, you need to have a defined strategic investment plan to provide for you during your retirement years. The average consumer does not have the time to become knowledgeable in making investments. Choose an insurance company and or professional that can translate your financial goals into a meaningful insurance and investment portfolio. That will probably include both whole life and term life insurance.
