Life insurance can help protect the lifestyle you’ve worked hard to create

It’s common to feel a sense of freedom looming as your kids get older and start to become financially independent. However, it’s worth remembering that financial setbacks can come up at any time, especially as your adult children are still getting on their feet. Having plans in place to prepare for life’s unexpected challenges, either for you or your extended family, may still be worthwhile.

Life Insurance products Choosi offers direct provide a lump sum payment that could be worth up to $2 million (depending on your age and policy) to nominated family members (beneficiaries) in the event of your death or the diagnosis of a terminal illness.

As a mature family, life insurance could offer you:

Peace of mind for your older children – you may find that your children are beginning to take their own path in life, such as moving out or studying for their future. If you were to pass away, your life insurance benefit could be used to help them keep their plans in place.
A way to protect the hard work you’ve done – you may have already made a start paying off the mortgage or any other assets for your family, so it’s good to know that all your hard work and planning could be protected should life take a turn for the worse.
