Life insurance is there to protect your young family financially if something happens to you

Every family is different, but the one thing that unites parents is the desire to do the best by their kids.

Life however can be unpredictable: 6,111 Australians aged 20 to 44 died in 2014.1 Furthermore, 2.2% of 15–24 year olds and 3.4% of 25–34 year olds, by age group in 2002, experienced the death of a spouse or child in the 10 years from 2002 to 2011.2 Your loved ones could encounter a very different life to the one you plan for them if you pass away or are diagnosed with a terminal illness. If you have young children, a mortgage and other debts, how would your family cope without your support?

Life Insurance products Choosi offers direct provide a lump sum payment of up to $1.5 million (depending on your age and policy) that helps give your family financial security in the event of your death. It can make life’s great opportunities still possible for your partner and children: travel, education, and a comfortable quality of life.

When should I get life insurance?

Whether you already have children or are making plans to start a family, there are benefits to getting covered as early as possible.

A family’s early years are often filled with milestones – wedding, babies, new house, new cars, childcare and increased living costs. They are exciting yet expensive and can come with substantial ongoing family debt.

Life insurance can help with the future costs your family may face if you pass away or are diagnosed with a terminal illness. These costs could include:

  • Paying the mortgage or rent
  • Credit card debt
  • Investment property expenses
  • Household bills and everyday living costs
  • Childcare
  • Travel
  • Education expenses
 
Life insurance can continue your family's quality of life in the event of the unexpected
