Term Life Insurance

According to Kansas City Life, Term Life insurance provides protection for a specific period of time, or “term” and pays a benefit if you die during the term. If the insured lives past the term period most term policies will terminate. With Kansas City Life term policies, the policyholder can choose to continue the policy at a higher premium or the insured may apply for another term or permanent policy. Key benefits of Term Life Insurance are, death benefit protection, income protection, business insurance needs, tax advantages, conversion options, and policies are customizable.

Return of Premium Life

Return of Premium (ROP) life insurance policies allow you many options you won’t find with traditional term life insurance policies. Although term life insurance is considered the lowest cost life insurance, many consumers are not comfortable spending the money because they could outlive the coverage. With a ROP life insurance policy, you can provide solid life insurance protection for your family with a guaranteed death benefit that gives you something tangible back – the return of all eligible premiums paid – when the level term period is up. Benefits of the Return of Premium Life policy include, guaranteed premium, builds cash value, tax advantages, favorable loan feature, conversion options, non-forfeiture provisions, and plans are customizable.

An IUL policy will provide security today with the cash value growth potential you need for tomorrow. Benefits of a Universal Life policy are premium flexibility, death benefit flexibility, builds cash value, tax advantages, favorable loan feature, and plans are customizable.

Annuities (Fixed and Variable)
A Fixed Annuity contract guarantees a minimum rate of interest; however, Kansas City Life Insurance Company can, and often does, credit a rate that is higher than the guarantee. Many annuities offer the ability to make on-going premium deposits.  Annuity contracts also offer a variety of payout options that can be chosen when you are ready to begin receiving these payments. Moreover, a Fixed Annuity allows you the option to receive a lifetime income stream.  An annuity also offers beneficiary options so you can determine who will receive your funds upon your death. Benefits of a fixed annuity include safety, tax deferral, competitive interest rates, no up-front costs, and the ability to customize. Kansas City Life also offers Variable Annuities which are savings vehicles that help accumulate assets for future needs.
