🔶 Living Benefits in Life Insurance
Living Benefits let policyholders access part of their death benefit while still alive to help cover medical costs or lost income.

Presentation by John T. Gasper III
Living Benefits allows policyholders to access a portion of their death benefit while still alive if diagnosed with a terminal, chronic, or critical illness. These riders, often added to permanent or term policies help cover high medical costs or loss of income.
Some triggers are:

• Life expectancy of 12 months or less
• Cannot perform at least 2 of the activities of daily living
• Heart attack
• Stroke
• Cancer and many others
• 70% of all bankruptcies are due to an unexpected illness.
• Living benefits can protect against this
