Level Term vs Decreasing Term vs Return-of-Premium: Picking the Right Variant

Two people, same age and coverage, yet a small monthly difference changes the outcome entirely. Nakel Nikiema breaks down level term, decreasing term, and return-of-premium (ROP) using a single 20-year, $500,000 example to show how premiums, benefits, and endings differ.

Level term offers stable premiums and benefits; decreasing term cuts the payout over time (cheaper, but narrow use cases like a mortgage); ROP refunds your premiums if you outlive the term, but costs more up front. The episode compares totals, math versus psychology, and when each variant makes sense.

Actionable takeaway: ask for apples-to-apples quotes for all three variants, run the numbers, and choose the product that matches your obligations and peace of mind, not the default or the commission. Next episode: real stories of term insurance in action.
