Just curious how much life insurance cover you guys have and do you think you have enough cover. I know asking how much is enough is like asking how long is a piece of string as everyone has different situation and expectation.
Anyway, I'll start. I currently have only $225k cover on life and TPD insurance which was more than enough when there were just me and my wife with no dependants. But with our (first) baby arriving later this year I am thinking that will not be anywhere near enough and will need to increase that significantly (double to triple the current amount).
As a father (to be) and husband, I want to know that my child and wife will have at least enough to live modestly on without having to rely on government handouts and/or goodwill from other family members should something bad happen to me unexpectedly.
Another question is does anyone has a recommendation on a good life insurance provider/deal out there? I just have mine with my super at the moment because it's the easiest and the premium comes out from the money that I will not get to lay my hands on for another 30+ years anyway.
