Small policies are often sold to singles specifically for this reason.&nbsp;Fortunately, they are relatively cheap.<\/li>\n<li>You have relatives who depend on you.&nbsp;Kids and\/or elderly parents that rely on you for financial support will be effected by your death.&nbsp;Life insurance funds can be used to replace child support payments as well as provide funds to attend college.

If your death would be the end of your business, then you need to be insured.
