Which life insurance fits Wellington households
Term life insurance
Wellington families often need large term life insurance policies; ten times the median income is more than $1.1 million, before the mortgage and college costs.
Whole life insurance
Parents who also want permanent coverage add a smaller whole life insurance policy, for example to leave a set amount to each child.
Indexed universal life (IUL)
Some business owners use indexed universal life for permanent coverage with flexible premiums as part of a long-term plan; we explain its caps and charges first.
Final expense insurance
Final expense insurance is less common here, mainly for grandparents who live with the family.

Life insurance questions from Wellington residents
I run a business in Wellington. How do I protect it if something happens to me?
Key-person coverage pays the business if an owner or key employee dies, giving it time to hire or wind down in an orderly way. If you have partners, a buy-sell agreement funded with life insurance lets them buy out your share.
How much coverage does a Wellington family need?
Add the mortgage, several years of income and education costs. With a median household income of $115,632, ten years of income alone is more than $1.1 million.
Can both parents be covered on one policy?
Some carriers offer joint or spouse-rider options, but two separate policies are usually more flexible: each parent is covered for their own amount and term.
Getting covered in Wellington
Most Wellington clients finish by phone and e-signature, in English or Spanish; larger policies may need a short medical exam at home.
