Senior Life Insurance Explained

Posted on: 11, Jun

We cannot hit AARP age without getting solicited for life insurance. Don’t get offended by the title, because it was sort of tongue in cheek, but get some information on this at life insurance for old people. The point is - we were all sold term life insurance policies for our working years. However, even after that time when our mortgage was supposed to be paid off, and our kids were supposed to be grown and on their own, we may find ourselves with debts and obligations. Maybe the kids are still around, or maybe that house picked up a second mortgage somewhere along the way.

Most of the time older people look at final expense insurance for seniors. These are whole life insurance policies in lower face amounts which are intended to provide cash for funerals and other needs that come up when people pass away. If you are not as familiar with whole life insurance as with term life, read whole life insurance explained.

Of course, some life insurance companies still do provide term life insurance policies, even up to age 75. However, unless it is needed for a business deal or some other reason where the need will certainly end, it is hard for me to see the point of it.

Baby Boomers Go Back To School

Posted on: 12, Mar

Finish your Degree at 50?

Why not go back to school. It’s not like you have to pack up and move into a dorm or anything these days. We find a plethora of community colleges, local universities, and online degree programs that cater to older students who want to complete or enhance their higher educations. You can find a local school or online course for just about anything you want to study.

One of our favorite College Finance Sites, CollegeMoneyU.com - has posted a Free Local Education Search Link online. Explore the possibilities in your own area. I think this is especially useful for older students who have been out of school for awhile, and may not have the resources of a school counselers office. It is also really useful if you have just moved into a new town, and you really do not know what colleges are out there.
