My grandmother in-law is in her slow 60's and she doesn't have existence insurance. She has six children who are incapable of paying for her funeral costs and handling her money. My husband and I focus that we would be the most responsible people within the family to manipulate her funeral arrangements etc.
What would be the best life policy to find? ( If I could even obtain one) and how much would it cost approximately?
She also have two young great grandchildren within which she is their legal guardian. I would want them to enjoy some sort of stability in the event that the grandma dies.
She have no known key health problems, doesn't smoke...is overweight. She is 5'0 and more or less 200lbs.
Thanks for your help!
Answers: While your husband could prove insurable interest, I would not ethically recommend an amount of insurance unless I, as a licensed agent, actually interviewed your grandmother surrounded by law and observed her overall condition for myself. In fact, surrounded by Florida we are required by law to certify that we hold done just that, especially if it is someone over 65, and anyone who tell you differently may well be an immoral agent.
My suggestion is that if you are only looking at what we refer to as "final expenses", within Florida, the average funeral is $6,000 to $8,000 except in South Florida where on earth they are likely closer to $8k-$10K. There are also other expenses that you enjoy to take into report that have zilch to do with the funeral such as taking aid of medication bills, hospital/doctor bills, preparing the house for the market if it is one sold by the estate, etc etc. My suggestion is that you ask around among your family and friends and find an agent that they believe to be reputable, and consequently maybe look at a SMALL integral life policy of no more than $10,000. You could supplement this next to a small savings article or CD for a remaining amount of, say, $5000. The grounds I don't suggest term because she is approaching the age where on earth term insurance is not an picking, and unlike whole vivacity policies, term policies expire and enjoy to be renewed. You don't want to be in the position of have to purchase term insurance for a party of 80 or 85 years of age, if it is even available. This is the safer way to run, believe me. This premium will not change.

My father is 68 and has diabetes, hi-blood pressure and neuropothy we get 200,000.00 worth of coverage for 787.00 per month. I think you should contact my agent. He is at http://www.lvhelathins.com He have been great to operation with. No company is going to incite criminal pursuit.
That is, no company will write a policy on Lady A, with Lady B owning the policy beside no interest in keeping her alive. Lady B could put to death Lady A and collect the cash.
Not well-mannered for the company.
Or for Lady A.
In other words, you will need to show 'insurable interest' surrounded by the grandmother. Absent such interest, you cannot own the policy.
However, you could gift her the money, up to $11,000 a year, so she could buy the policy on herself. That is legally recognized.
Later, depending upon the operation of state law, she could market you her interest in the policy. Or she could assign some of the plus of her policy to you.
Note Bene: State law will prevail.
In regard to the past answer I would point out that your husband is the Grandson and and so a family beneficiary. most states recognize relatives as having an insurable interest and and so you get apolicy minus jumping through the hoops suggested that will of late boost the salesmans commission. Find a good company and ask the agent how to return with a policy. I would guess you can get one, but it will be relatively expensive. aarp.com will insure her...you should be named guardian...final will on order by an atty of your state...permit the other kids know what you are doing! my advice!
Yes, if you enjoy her permission, but if between the six kids your line can't afford the funeral, likely you're not going to be capable of afford the insurance premiums for a policy.
I'd advise, a short time ago start saving the money.
As long as you enjoy an insurable interest (blood related), you can get a policy for her next to her approval.
To make sure the great grandchildren are taken watchfulness of, you would probably have to filch them in yourselves.
To cover burial and a bit more in armour of medical expenses (~25k policy) should be less than $100/mo surrounded by a term policy. Find one that is to say guaranteed renewable if she lives longer than another 10 years (god willing) it will stay in force regardless of condition conditions (premiums must still be paid).
If you want to go above and beyond close to the first poster, although granted that much may still be needed, a $250k from my company is less than $500/mo. I know we are not the cheapest so it should be that or lower.
