Questions from Sacramento
Can whole life dividends be used to buy more insurance?
On many participating policies, dividends can be directed into paid-up additional insurance, which may increase death benefit and cash value. Dividends are not guaranteed and depend on the carrier’s experience.

Life insurance prices depend on your age, health and the coverage you choose, not your city, so a Sacramento resident generally pays the same rate as anyone else in California with the same profile. You can compare prices online in a few minutes on our quote page.
