(Builds No Cash Value)Whole Life Insurance - Whole Life can give you protection for your entire life at a fixed rate. Whole Life builds up cash values, and in some cases, paid dividends.Universal Life Insurance - Universal Life gives you more flexibility -- allowing you to adjust your premiums and to increase or decrease your death benefit.Accident Insurance - Accident Insurance gives your family an income in the event of your accidental death.To conclude, when I was younger, I felt that life insurance was a waste of my money.
