Insurance vs. Investment
Let’s clarify a common misconception: insurance isn’t an investment. It’s a tool for risk management. Specifically, a pure term insurance plan provides no benefits during its term or after it ends, except in the event of an untimely death, where beneficiaries receive a death benefit. The purpose of insurance isn’t to make you wealthy during your lifetime, but to shield your loved ones from financial hardship after your passing.
Investing in financial products, on the other hand, is about growing your wealth. It involves considering your financial goals, risk tolerance, and expected returns. You may hold onto investments, benefiting from periodic returns, depending on the investment type.
Understanding this distinction is crucial. Insurance offers protection, while investments aim to increase your financial well-being.
