Things to consider
Statistics on premature death risk causes
Personal planning:
- If you are in a personal relationship (common law or marriage), how much do you contribute to the family budget? If you were to die prematurely, how would your survivor(s) get by?
- Does anyone else depend on you financially, such as a parent, grandparent, brother or sister?
- If you are a single parent, what level of support payments are you making or receiving? How would these be maintained?
- If you have a mortgage on your home, would you like it paid off in the event of your death?
- If you have children, would you like to provide for their continued education in the event of your death?
- Are there any charitable organizations or other family members to whom you would like to leave money?
- Could life insurance play a role in paying the taxes incurred when capital property is transferred from one generation to the next?
Business planning:
- How would your business fare in the event of your premature death?
- Would your business suffer an income loss if a key employee or partner were to die?
- Could life insurance play a role in business or farm succession plans?
- Are the buy-sell provisions in your partnership agreements properly funded?
- Would there be expenses associated with recruiting and hiring replacements if a key employee died?
