Many families purchase life insurance with the hope of leaving a strong financial legacy for their loved ones. But what if the policy you’ve been paying for over the years ends before you do? Unfortunately, this is more common than most people realize, leaving families without the safety net they expected. Legacy planning is meant to protect your loved ones, yet the wrong insurance choice can lead to gaps that undermine your intentions. Understanding why policies expire and what you can do about it is essential to ensure your planning actually works as intended.
