Whole Life Insurance: Should I Cancel It and Switch to Term Life? | 470

Snag Our Simplified Budget System!

Today’s episode is ripped straight from real coaching convos with our clients — because if they’re dealing with it, chances are you are too. We’re talking about a common money trap that shows up in more budgets than you’d think: whole life insurance.

Spoiler alert: It’s not a good investment.
Not when you’re paying hundreds a month, not seeing any return, and living outside your means just to keep it going.

We break down:

• Why whole life insurance is rarely worth it (especially when your budget is tight)

• The difference between whole life and term life insurance

• What to do if you’ve already been paying into a whole life policy

• How to reorder your financial steps so you can actually build wealth (on your own terms)

We’re all about helping you avoid costly mistakes, feel seen, and walk away with quick wins. So whether you're paying $473/month into a policy that’s draining you or wondering if your “life insurance” line item is doing anything for you — this one's for you.

Remember: we want you to save, invest, and protect your family on purpose — and in the right order. Let’s get that money back in your budget and get you back in control.
