But because the $1.5 million is single policy as opposed to three separate policies, that likely drives some of the lower premium.

And the $1.5 million is not based just on our debt but instead it is to provide for my wife and kids should that bus take me out one day!

As for whole life, I am no expert but I'd rather save and invest for myself. Whole life is costly when compared to term but it is in effect forced savings...

I feel I’m paying way too much. I think my rate was based on age and health (43 and healthy) everything checked out ok. They wouldn’t let my wife who’s a nurse draw my blood for the physical.
