Remember to think about a few things when you think about life insurance.
1. Paying off the mortgage completely.
2. Enough to pay for all of your child's college education in a 6 year situation for each child.
3. Paying off all credit cards and vehicle notes.
4. Money to live off food, clothing, gas, utilities, etc.. for at least 3 years so you may go back to school or training for a new job and a good job, not at Walmart.
5. Enough for grieving, and counseling to get you back on your feet emotionally and physically.
6. Enough for a mini vacation to help you deal with the loss of your husband.
7. New clothing for a new job.
I would say you have to take more into consideration when you lose a loved one. Think about it and do your math correctly.
