Q&A with Alan Gudis

How does a no-exam life insurance policy compare to a fully underwritten one?

Answer: No‑exam = faster, easier, more expensive, lower face amounts.

Fully underwritten = slower, more invasive, cheaper, higher face amounts.

How can I lower my life insurance premiums?

Answer: If any of your risk factors have gone away or gotten better (quit smoking, lost weight, lowered cholesterol/blood pressure), then there is a good chance you can get re-rated.

How do I calculate the death benefit I should choose?

Answer: A Simple Formula (DIME Method)

Add up:

Debt: Credit cards, personal loans, car loans, etc.

Income Replacement: How many years of income your family would need.

Mortgage: Remaining mortgage balance.

Education: Future college or education expenses for children.

Then subtract:

Savings and investments

Existing life insurance coverage

Other assets your family could access
