Which of the following statements about the ‘Life Insurance’ section of the lecture material are TRUE:
- Death cover pays a lump-sum amount upon death. The amount of death cover that most people need should normally increase between the ages of 20 and 60 (with the most needed at age 60).
- If someone takes out $1 million in ‘Death and TPD cover’, then they will be paid a lump-sum of $1 million upon either death or total and permanent disability. One possible problem with TPD insurance is about the definitions of what constitutes ‘total and permanent disability’.
