Insurance Policy

Many life insurance policies offer an investment component along with

the insurance component. If you choose such a policy, you will have

access to the policy’s cash value as it accumulates. When your child

is ready for college, you can borrow against the cash value to pay education

expenses.

In addition, adequate life insurance on both your and your spouse’s

lives can ensure your children will have the needed funds for college

should something happen to either one of you.
