The Untapped Potential of Life Insurance Kim explains the unique benefits of life insurance, specifically whole life policies, as a financial asset that offers growth potential while providing security. She clarifies the difference between term and whole life insurance, showing listeners why whole life insurance is a valuable tool that can build wealth while offering protection.
