Insurance
Myths:
Insurance is just another tax saving instrument. I do not need an insurance now. May be later... Why wait for 30 years? - let me take a policy for 15 years (or may be 10).
The Facts:
Lower the age, lower the premium, - higher the age higher the premium. As we get older - Health becomes a major impediment to getting high insurance cover. Longer the duration of policy - lesser is the premium.
