The average life insurance needed, based on calculations recommended by the U.S. Government for victims of 9/11, is $459,000...The average insurance coverage owned is $126,000.

Almost half the population would be inadequately prepared if the primary breadwinner would die tomorrow.

Some 45% of widows and 37% of widowers say their spouse was inadequately insured.

Within two years after death, 50% of the widows and 33% of the widowers are "just getting by" financially.

30% of middle-market consumers (household income between $25,000-$85,000) find it difficult to determine how much life insurance to buy; 45% never had a Needs Analysis done.

Agents and brokers are seen as the most useful source of information when buying life insurance - more so than the internet, books and magazines, or TV and radio programs.
