00:00A $3 million life insurance policy can cost anywhere from roughly $1.600 to several thousand dollars per year,

00:07depending mainly on whether it is term or permanent coverage, your age, health, and smoking status.

00:13For Healthy Non-Smokers

00:14Current 2026 examples show that some 10-year, $3 million term policies cost as little as $1.48, $1.91

00:23per month for applicants in their 30s and 40s.

00:261. Term Life Insurance

00:28This is generally the lowest-cost option.

00:31A healthy 35- to 44-year-old non-smoker could potentially pay about $1.580, $1.100 annually for

00:40a 10-year, $3 million policy based on recent real customer illustrations.

00:45Longer terms, such as 20 or 30 years, generally cost more.

00:492. Whole Life Insurance

00:51Asterisk expects substantially higher premiums because coverage is designed to last for life and builds cash value.

00:58For context, 2026 averages for a $500,000 whole-life policy range from about $1.3, $1.80 annually for

01:06a healthy 40-year-old man to $4,983 at age 50.

01:11Scaling to $3 million does not produce an exact quote because insurer pricing is not strictly proportional.

01:183. No Exam Term Coverage Asterisk Some insurers offer up to $1.3 million without a traditional medical exam.

01:26But eligibility varies by age, health, and insurer.

01:29The actual price changes significantly by age, sex, health, tobacco use, policy term, occupation, location, and underwriting class.

01:39For example, 2026 data show a healthy 40-year-old non-smoker's $500,000 20-year-term policy averaging $3

01:49.21-year for men and $278 for women, while smoker rates are much higher.

01:55Practical step asterisk asterisk if you need $3 million of coverage.

02:00Compare quotes from several insurers using the same term length and underwriting information.

02:05Do not assume a simple $3-million to $1-500,000 price multiplier will be accurate.

02:13Finally, remember that everything we discussed today is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.

02:20Good luck to everyone and see you in the next video.
