Will,
This kind of policy offers greater flexibility than whole or term life.
Universal life has many moving parts to understand before you buy.
After your initial premium payment, you can reduce or increase the amount of your death benefit. Also, after your initial payment, you can pay premiums any time and in any amount, as long as you don’t miss a minimum payment level. In some cases, there are limits to how much extra you can pay in advance. If you choose to increase your death benefit, you may have to provide medical proof that your health has not deteriorated.
You will need to manage these policies to maintain sufficient funding,
especially because the insurance company can increase charges.
Some new universal life policies perform like term life insurance: They can be configured at the time of purchase to provide both level death benefits and level premiums that are guaranteed for life as long as you pay the scheduled premium.
