Why Lyndon Soldiers Should Hold Insurance Promoted Policy Plan
An article touts life insurance using a legal reserve plan as the reliable savings method for soldiers and families. It compares War Risk Insurance with ordinary life policies, explaining level premiums, cash surrender value, and dividends and provides example figures for a 25 year old buying a $10,000 policy with stated surrender values over time.
