Universal Life
A combination flexible premium, adjustable life insurance policy. The premium payer may select the amount of premium he or she can pay and the policy benefits are those which the premium will purchase. Or, the premium payer may change the amount of insurance and pay premium accordingly. Many believe this is the only true solution to the "buy term invest the difference" problem.
Unscheduled Premium Payments
In Universal Life insurance, the policyowner can pay extra premiums in addition to the scheduled premium payment amount. These payments can be made at any time, but are subject to a minimum amount.
