68 Million Adult Americans have No Life Insurance
by Efin Advisor | September 28, 2009
The national debate over health care reform has brought to life the number of Americans who lack fundamental health insurance.
An equally astounding number of Americans are lacking the financial security of life insurance.
September has become a focal point in the industry’s attempt to address the
problem of too many Americans lacking adequate life insurance protection.
The organization known as LIFE estimates that 68 million adult Americans have no life insurance at all, and most with coverage have far less than experts recommend. In response to this underinsurance problem, hundreds of life insurance organizations and thousands of individual producers participate in Life Insurance Awareness Month each year.
Some of the nation’s top insurance companies participating this year include State Farm, New York Life, Penn Mutual, AEGON, MassMutual, John Hancock, Guardian, Principal Financial Group,
Prudential, Southern Farm Bureau, COUNTRY Financial, American National, Farm Family and Illinois Mutual.
Efinancial salutes Life Insurance Awareness Month and represents a one stop shop for life insurance among America’s top life insurance companies.
Life insurance need not be out of reach for so many Americans. Not when term life insurance is just a small fraction of the premium other insurance policies can run. If you have a growing family, you can’t afford NOT to have adequate life insurance!

Life insurance saves lives! I’ve seen it with my own eyes! Thanks for the wake up call for those who need to protect their homes, their children’s education and their family’s security.

The irony is that without health insurance, more of us are going to need Life Insurance. The simple fact is that America now ranks around 39th in life expectancy. Surprised? Not everyone gets the great health care that American has to offer. Let’s hope that will change!

With the United States being one of the riches countries in the world why is their health service so poor. You see life insurance companies get record profits each year but the quality of health care is lower than what it should be, the money isn’t getting to the health professionals that need it.
