You must leave behind something for your spouse. It may happen that your spouse outlives you; in that case life insurance can be very useful. You need insurance even if your kids are independent. You need it even if your mortgage is paid off. That is how much important it is to have a life insurance. You may think that your job gives you life insurance and so you do not need another one policy. Well before you arrive to such conclusions you must check the policy which your job provides. If it does not give your family the proper cover that you want, then you must get another policy. A good policy is one which will keep your family happy when you are not there.

You have to choose a certain period of time for which you need protection. It could be till you clear all your debts or till your kids grow up.
