It might be helpful if you could share what kind of insurance. (Health? Auto? Home? Church? Business? Something else?) Lines of insurance are often specialized

Life insurance. I lost my job recently & need to make a decision very soon about continuing what I have or getting something else More of Him...less of me.twitter.com/camiracle77www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=691241499&ref=name

I am not sure if I am familiar with it or not. If no one answered it, you could post the terminology on the page and maybe someone would know what the terminology means

I am pretty sure the insurance I had was whole life. If I continue it, it will become universal life, which from what I've read, has some of the qualities of whole life but is different. Trying to decide if I should keep this as universal, cash it out, or what More of Him...less of me.twitter.com/camiracle77www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=691241499&ref=name

This is a tough one! You'll need to weigh the benefits between the cash value of the old policy vs. the underwriting requirements, policy terms, and annual premium for the new policy. To add even more pressure, they probably only gave you a few days to make the decision!Insurance agents that work in personal lines (like homeowners and auto insurance) will either also be licensed in life insurance or will have a trusted relationship with someone who is. Agents genuinely want to help people navigate situations like this! They'll also be able to tell you if the offered universal policy is worth it, or if there are other policies that better fit your personal situation.

If you want cheaper premiums, term is the way to go. Further, it pays to shop around every so often for new term insurance. You almost always will find a better price due to the company wanting you to get onboard...than the current company will give you.

I would concur with the term insurance advice. I would also just add get them to lock in the rate. I recently got one for 10 years and I'm 62. Thinking it will be the last life insurance policy I ever need. Following Eddie's advice of dropping down the road.
