Thanks for the link to Thrifty Mommy.
With the current financial crisis worldwide and especially in the US, I would bet that there will be more people who would like to purchase life insurance as most people now are losing their jobs and many financial companies are going the tubes. It’s not only people losing their jobs but the stress and tension levels are high that people are at risk of heart attack and or stroke. Thus the need to get life insurance, but how much does life insurance cost? This would be the question people would be asking if they plan on getting themselves insured.
Thanks
