Can I Get Life Insurance At 60? 
Yes people 60 years old can buy insurance . There are many reasons to buy life insurance at 60 but interestingly enough people in their early 60 's may desire to defer their Social Security benefits to age 70to max their benefits out . But they may be afraid of dying too early and missing out on taking their SS benefits early . A low cost term insurance policycan cover 10 years cheaply and replace those lost SS benefits to your heirs . The higher SS income may pay for those cheap premiums many times over . Weather you live long or pass early your heirs are still taken care of . If you live long then the deferral of SS income can be very significantly better .
