How Much Should I Be Paying For Life Insurance? 
Great question ! Unfortunately the answer is filled with so many variables that it is impossible to give you a solid dollar amount . If you are attempting to budget an amount , or compare your current price , I 'd suggest that you go to an independent agent -LRB- An independent agent is one who can use several companies to choose from , not just one specific one -RRB- and walk through the process of comparing with them . I 'd strongly recommend that as opposed to comparing based on mail , television or internet quotes , as they are generally pitched to promote their best rate and not the ones most people would actually qualify for . One other tip - do not apply for several policies with the hopes of finding out your price - that actually can have very bad consequences for you . Ask only , commit when you 've found the one that best fits your needs . If you have any further questions , I 'd be happy to help , feel free to contact me . Thanks for asking !
