Term life insurance can be useful when someone needs a high amount of coverage for a set period but has limited money available for higher permanent-policy premiums. For example, a young family may need coverage for mortgage liabilities, income replacement for working parents, and future college expenses. It may also fit people who already have investments, assets, and a solid strategy for the future, so they do not want to pay extra for the cash-value feature of permanent insurance.
