What You Can and Can’t Change About Your Life Insurance Rates

There are some things about Glenn Dale, Maryland we all love and would never change. The Splash Park, the friendly people, the variety of events and annual festivals in the area, and our relatively moderate year-round temperatures are among them. Of course we would change the Washington area traffic if we could, but we’ve learned there are some things you can’t change. The same can be said about your life insurance.

Life insurance premiums are based on a variety of factors. There are some factors you can’t change that affect your life insurance premiums, and there are those you can. Age, for example, is one of the biggest factors that impact premiums, but there is little you can do about that. You can keep in mind though, that the younger you are, the cheaper life insurance will likely be for you.

You can make some changes to your personal habits to positively impact premiums. If you are a smoker, giving up tobacco use will help. Those who are significantly overweight will likely pay more. Have a dangerous job or getting involved in risky recreational activities may also impact your rates negatively. Even a good driving record may help you secure more affordable premiums.
