Several Differences between Term Life Insurance and Whole Life Insurance:

1.Applicable to different groups of people

Term life insurance is suitable for the vast majority of ordinary and middle-class families to insure. As long as you have the plan to start a family, have normal debts, and plan to expect your children's education expenses, term life insurance is always applicable.

Using extremely low cost to transfer the heaviest financial burden at this age in life, until the mortgage is paid, the children grow up and work, the family responsibility on the shoulders is reduced, and there is no need for regular life insurance.

Whole life insurance is suitable for people who need to plan their estates in advance and is suitable for people above the middle class. Compared with other financial instruments, whole life insurance has the advantages of efficiency and certainty, leaving a certain amount of money for the beneficiary with less premiums and more money.

3. Different health notification and liability exemption 

The health notification and liability exemption of term life insurance are generally looser than that of whole life insurance, because the proportion of people who die before the age of 70 is smaller, and because many term life insurance can be directly insured online. the health notification and liability exemption are more relaxed. Therefore, some easing of health notices and liability exemption is conducive to gaining more market share.

4. Same dissertation

Whether it is term life insurance or whole life insurance, is a simple tool to designate beneficiaries. Otherwise, if the beneficiary is designated by other means, a will notarized is needed. If there are any changes afterwards, we will have to head to a notary office for another notarization. The process is relatively complicated and troublesome.

Whereas, life insurance is very simple in procedure, the beneficiary can be changed at any time. 

For your beneficiary, you never need to ask others for opinions, you don't need others' consent, and you don't need to explain to others.
