The primary benefits of permanent life insurance includes:
Death Benefit Protection - as long as you pay the sufficient premiums, your protection never ends
Built-in Flexibility - you can increase or decrease your death benefit to meet your changing financial needs so long as sufficient premium is paid
Expanded Cash Value Options for Certain Policies - some universal life insurance policies provide that the cash value can be linked to the broad performance of stock market index funds, but with limits on how much you can gain or lose. Or, you can choose a guaranteed annual return option. It even offers flexibility to have a combination of both.
