Why Do People Obtain Life Insurance? 
That is a great question ! People buy insurance to protect things . Health , their car , and their belongings , we buy policies to protect all of these things . We buy life insurance for the same reason - in this case , to protect those we love and leave behind from being left without the money to care for themselves , or provide for our funerals . We buy it to protect our peace of mind , knowing that our loved ones wo n't suffer the loss of their financial security , as a result of the loss of us . It 's one of the most important things that we can do for them . Thanks for asking !
