In most instances, there will be a change in income and some hard decisions may have to be made.

You may be asking yourself do I need life insurance after I retire? In Hope Hills, NC, Cross Creek Insurance is there for you to offer their expert advice. 

Before you decide whether or not you need life insurance after you retire you need to ask yourself a few questions. 

• Who is counting on me to provide for them?
• Do I have outstanding debts including a mortgage?
• Have I provided for my final expenses?
• Do I want to leave a legacy to anyone?

If you have a spouse, partner or dependent of any sort, you probably want to make sure that they are provided for and not left in financial need in the event of your passing. Life insurance is a way to help them to get through not only your loss but the financial burden that can follow. It should be able to take care of any debt that you have as well as paying for your final expenses. Ideally, there will be enough left to allow them to continue to live the same life that they are accustomed to. 

Many people want to leave a monetary legacy to their children or grandchildren even though they are not dependent. It can help to pay for a college education or the downpayment on a home or business.
