Which Type of Insurance is Best at Age 81,
82, 83, 84, 85?
There are only two types of policies you can
buy once you reach age 81 to age 85, which
are 10 year term (sorry, 15 year is no
longer available at this age), and whole life
insurance. With term life insurance you buy
a limited, defined term such as 10 years.
Whole life, on the other hand, covers you for
your whole life until you pass away, or in
some cases, until you reach a specified age
such as 100.

Since in your eighties, permanent or whole
life insurance only costs a fraction more than
10 year term, I would recommend a
permanent policy if you can afford it. For
example, if you have a male at age 82
purchase 10 year term, he might outlive the
coverage if he can just live to age 93, which
is certainly possible if this 82 year old is in
good health.

Suppose your estate is taxable and the trustee needs to raise cash to pay the estate tax bill, which by the way, is due 9 months from the date of death. Life insurance can solve this problem. Which Type of Insurance is Best at Age 81, 82, 83, 84, 85? There are only two types of policies you can buy once you reach age 81 to age 85, which are 10 year term (sorry, 15 year is no longer available at this age), and whole life insurance. With term life insurance you buy a limited, defined term such as 10 years. Whole life, on the other hand, covers you for your whole life until you pass away, or in some cases, until you reach a specified age such as 100. Since in your eighties, permanent or whole life insurance only costs a fraction more than 10 year term, I would recommend a permanent policy if you can afford it. For example, if you have a male at age 82 purchase 10 year term, he might outlive the coverage if he can just live to age 93, which is certainly possible if this 82 year old is in good health.
