How to Convert Permanent to Term Life
If you find it difficult to keep up with your whole life insurance payments from month to month, you might want to consider term life. Term life insurance is more affordable than permanent whole life. Consult with your insurance agent about converting your policy to a term life insurance policy. As long as you are younger than 75, you should be able to covert a permanent policy to a term policy quickly and easily.
