Q: Should a person buy life insurance for the sake of his family?

A: Should a person buy life insurance? Absolutely. Yes. It’s not a chisaron in bitachon; life insurance is just like buying a house for your family. Someday you’ll live in that house. Someday your children will live in that house. Suppose you buy a house for your children but you won’t live in it but your children will live in it. It’s also worthwhile. And therefore, life insurance is also worthwhile. Life insurance is worthwhile, absolutely.
