Term life Insurance policies not only allow you to select the coverage amount, but also enable you to choose how long you want to be insured. Term life policies can be purchased at a surprisingly low cost, especially in comparison to permanent forms of insurance. Understanding Term Life Insurance Life insurance is designed to provide you and your family with protection from financial distress in the unfortunate event of an untimely death. In the event of death to the insured, the face amount of the policy is paid to designated beneficiaries. Depending upon the provisions of the insurance contract, if the insured survives the contract period, the insurance company may terminate the policy or the policyholder may renew coverage for an additional period of time.
The Skico view on the big issues
How does the Aspen Skiing Co. gauge its performance over the last decade? How does it view the coming season? Is its role as an environmental activist in the ski industry worth the criticism that comes with the territory? David Perry, Skico�s senior vice president-mountain division, provided answers to 10 questions posed by The Aspen Times in an e-mail interview to kick off the coming season. (He couldn�t tell us when this balmy weather will give way to the white stuff.) Perry is the Skico�s second in command. One of the first actions taken by Skico President and Chief Executive Officer Mike Kaplan last November when he took the helm of the company was to promote Perry as his right-hand man. Perry is in charge of all ski operations and also oversees marketing, sales, events, ticketing, guest services and public relations.
