  • Life insurance is appropriate for any kind of conversation: family get-together, dinner, even right before bed! It’s especially appropriate right after somebody dies. (“I got some life insurance to cover you and the kids when I’m gone from XYZ Insurance! No health questions, no high premiums! Pass the peas?”)
  • I guess since it’s so appropriate, people talk about it. A lot. Especially when you’re over 65. (“Are you sure I still qualify?”)
  • Talking about life insurance stems usually from talking about somebody who’s already dead. (“I miss his jokes. Well, you know, his wife and kids are doing okay!”)
  • If you talk about life insurance, someone else has a better company, a better rate, and will convince you to switch to theirs.
  • Getting life insurance is easier than fixing your own house.
  • Younger people never talk about life insurance. Ever.
