Can I get Term Life insurance online?

Frank,
Term life insurance is widely available on the Internet, from direct-to-consumer life insurance companies and from insurance agents and brokers.
If you want more than a death benefit from your term life insurance policy and like the idea of a long-term savings account (not insured by any federal agency) or stock market investment, you might consider cash value life insurance such as whole life, universal life or variable life. But be prepared to pay much higher premiums per $1,000 of coverage precisely because you are now funding a cash value account and paying fees and expenses.
Great Question.
