Life insurance companies love Term policies because they are a huge money maker. Only 2% of term policies pay a death benefit.

As to the OP I would steer away from VUL due to there being no guarantees. Go with a WL plan that is offered by an A rated mutual company.

Is the stated goal to claim a death benefit on a term life insurance policy?
Or is the goal for an insured to outlive a term life insurance policy?

Serious question.

Seriously?

That’s not the way to look at it. What you need to ask is how much in benefits is paid out to that 2% vs how much premium is collected.
