Five Steps To Cheap Life Insurance Premiums

  • Life insurance is all about calculating risk.
    When you take out a policy, you and your
    insurance company are both hoping that you'll
    never have to make a claim. Insurance companies
    are experts at assessing risk, and calculating
    how likely it is that a certain type of person
    will die at any given age.
  • People are classed in categories, such as
    low-risk and high-risk-depending on their age,
    health and lifestyle, and those high-risk people
    pay much higher insurance premiums, because
    they're more likely to die sooner rather than
    later. How can you make sure you're in the
    low-risk category? Try following one or more of
    these five suggestions.
  • Become a Vegetarian
  • Some insurance companies are beginning to include
    diet in their risk assessment when they calculate
    premiums. They know that a meatless diet is much
    healthier than one that includes large amounts of
    animal protein. No animal protein and much less
    saturated fat in the diet means vegetarians have
    a 40 lower risk of developing some cancers, and
    a 30 lower risk of developing heart disease.
  • Not all insurance companies take vegetarianism
    into account when calculating premiums, but if
    you're a vegetarian your arteries are going to be
    in better shape, you may have lower blood
    pressure and cholesterol, so those factors can
    help you get lower premiums with some providers.

  • Lose Weight
  • Obesity increases the risk of cancer, diabetes,
    hypertension and heart disease, and on average,
    obesity reduces life expectancy by nine years.
    Not surprisingly, insurance companies view
    obesity as a risk factor, and the higher your
    body max index, the higher your insurance
    premiums.
  • If you're overweight or obese, you're paying a
    much higher premium than you need to and, you're
    reducing your life expectancy as well. Losing
    weight will cut your insurance premiums and might
    just give you a new lease of life too.
  • Women Get Covered Before Getting Pregnant
  • Insurance companies view pregnancy as a high-risk
    condition, due to illnesses that may affect
    pregnant women. For example, previously healthy
    women may develop diabetes or hypertension during
    pregnancy, literally without warning. If you are
    pregnant when you apply for life cover, you can
    expect much higher premium quotes than you'd get
    either before or after pregnancy. You'll
    typically pay at least 50 more for premiums if
    you apply while pregnant. To keep your premiums
    low, buy life cover before getting pregnant.

  • Give Up Extreme Sports
  • Also on the long list of things that insurance
    companies view as risky are extreme sports such
    as sky-diving, mountain-climbing and
    bungee-jumping. If these are your favorite
    sports, you're going to pay much more for your
    life cover.
  • However, even if you're not an extreme sports
    lover, it might pay to check your Life Insurance
    Premium Calculator and find out how your
    favorite sports are classified. Some insurance
    companies put much safer sports such as
    horse-riding in the high-risk category, so you're
    better off finding an insurer with more favorable
    sporting classifications.
  • Give Up Smoking
  • The new emphasis on obesity doesn't make the
    risks of smoking any less. Insurance companies
    still charge smokers up to twice as much for
    their insurance premiums as they do non-smokers.
    If you're a smoker, kicking the habit will save
    more on your insurance than any other lifestyle
    change.
  • In addition to the above steps, one of the most
    powerful money saving tips is to compare as much
    of the market as you can and use a discount life
    insurance broker.
