There's really no best Insurance company for getting life insurance and usually when you pay the premiums for life insurance you could just as easy pay the funeral home the money upfront to take care of your burial expenses when you or that person dies.
My parents have Life Insurance though Mutual of Omaha and I think they pay around $20.00 to $25.00 per month for each life insurance policy.
That's what I remember them paying the last time I helped them get the policy and helped them fill out paperwork but it's been awhile so there prices may have changed.
My parents have been with Mutual of Omaha life insurance company for a few years now and they've been happy with them but what else can they say until they have to use it which hopefully won't be for awhile.
Myself I'm just gonna prepay my funeral once I get to the point of being near the end.
Some other good high rated Life Insurance companies that have good reviews are, AIG, Assurity, Banner Life Insurance and MetLife.
