Life insurance comparison

Term vs whole life:
renting protection or owning it.

Same goal — protecting your family — but very different price tags and timelines. Here's the honest side-by-side, with real ballpark numbers.

10, 20, or 30 years
Premium Cost

Estate planning, permanent needs

Medicare plan comparison

Medicare Advantage vs
Supplement + Part D.

This is the single biggest fork in the Medicare road — and there's no one right answer. Here's what you trade either way.

🧭 Medicare Advantage (Part C)

  • Often $0 premium
  • Includes prescription drug coverage
  • Extra benefits (dental, vision)
  • Provider networks
  • Geographic limitations
  • Annual plan changes

Best for: predictable costs and extra benefits.

🛡️ Medicare Supplement + Part D

  • No provider networks
  • Travel anywhere in the US
  • Stable, predictable coverage
  • Higher monthly premiums
  • Separate Part D plan needed
  • Limited extra benefits

Best for: flexibility, travel, and keeping your existing doctors.

Compare like a pro

Six comparison tips —
and one promise.

Whichever line of coverage you're shopping, the same checklist keeps you out of trouble. And here's exactly what you can hold us to.

Comparison Tips

  • Compare total annual costs — premium × 12 plus what you'll actually spend, not just the monthly sticker price.
  • Check provider networks — confirm your doctors and hospitals are in-network before you enroll.
  • Review prescription coverage — make sure your medications are on the plan's formulary, at a tier you can afford.
  • Consider your health needs — a plan that fits a healthy 30-year-old rarely fits someone managing chronic conditions.
  • Look at out-of-pocket maximums — that's your real worst-case number for the year.
  • Read the fine print — exclusions, waiting periods, and prior-authorization rules hide there.
