    life insurance

    Just looking at this. Do you have it? How much do you pay? Do you have loads or just enough to cover the mortgage?
    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

    After a huge argument last week my wife insisted I get extra life insurance. She also insists that almonds are a new miracle food and everything now tastes of them.

    Should I be worried?

      Don't have any then again don't have a mortgage. Isn't holding life insurance usually part of your mortgage contract?

        No idea I don't have a mortgage either, just concerned about leaving my kids high and dry if I croak. Warchest isn't that big that it will last 20 years.

          I have term assurance which IIRC runs out when the kids are aged 25 ish.

          After that, they're on their own!

            Pretty cheap and worth it I reckon. I pay around £55 a month for 1 million. Organised with legal and general through contractor financials and I pay it via Ltd co.

              WOW! That is cheap.

              I thought the old rule of thumb was £10 per £100k

                No I don't. But Suity's wife & I have insured him for £5 million quid for accidental death by a piano falling from 20 floors up in a Dusseldorf hotel. What are the chances hey?
                What happens in General, stays in General.

                  I've got a friends life policy to cover the mortgage, and a separate life cover with pru. Think am convinced will die very soon.
                  Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.
