People tend to underestimate the importance of life cover. With the right policy in place, your family's finances and wellbeing can be protected for decades. One feature I always tell people not to overlook is TPD cover. It isn't automatically included in a policy.

Finder's life insurance editor
Life insurance is a policy you hopefully won't claim on for many decades, but what it buys you in the interim is peace of mind. It's important to consider what your debts look like and if your family could manage these without you. I'm married with three kids, and my life insurance policy gives me reassurance that if the worst should happen, my home will be paid off and my family won't have to deal with losing their home while they're grieving.

No one is ever really prepared for life's harsh surprises, but insurance can help soften the blow... Life insurance is about protecting what matters most. That's the people around you, rather than just material possessions like cars or boats.
