The funeral cost calculator might have shown how unexpected and costly funerals can be. Many of the individuals we assist are seniors with fixed incomes who often struggle to afford these expenses. We often receive inquiries from our customers asking about Social Security assistance for funeral payments. However, the truth is, Social Security only offers $255 for qualifying funeral expenses, which might barely cover the cost of flowers.
– There is still hope to get help with funeral costs.
Life insurance for funeral costs can cost you less than $1 per day and provide you with enough to cover funeral, cremation, and burial costs.
We understand the estimated cost of your funeral. Now, let’s explore the expenses to cover either your own or a loved one’s funeral. Taking into account that the average funeral typically amounts to around $10,000 according to the funeral cost calculator, we’ll base the rates we discovered on that coverage amount. Generally, $10,000 is the most common face amount considered for these purposes.
On average, burial insurance rates range from about $45 to $100 per month. However, your individual premium could vary based on factors such as your age, health condition, and the coverage amount you choose.
While it’s a good idea to compare options, it’s important to be cautious. You might come across online or TV ads offering free burial insurance for seniors or the well-known $9.95 colonial Penn life insurance.
Frequently, these advertised premiums are determined for a healthy person and usually offer coverage between $1,000 to $2,000. So, when you encounter an ad stating ‘Coverage starting at just $9.95’ or ‘Coverage for just pennies per day,’ it’s important to be skeptical. For instance, Colonial Penn’s $9.95 plan only provides $717 for a 70-year-old male. Their advertisement might give the impression of receiving more coverage than the actual $717.
