This insurance product is intended to minimize the financial burden a family may have to go through in the event of death considering that the average cost associated with funeral is nearly $10,000 today.

While you can't always prepare for death, you can prepare for the expenses that go with it. Burial expenses, a headstone, cremation, not to mention flowers, limousines or obituary notices, can cost at least $5,000 and possibly $10,000 or more. Social Security can be counted on for only $225, clearly not enough to make a dent.

Just as you plan your will, you can plan for your final expenses through prepayment. Take care of important details today, and you'll spare your family the expense at an already stressful and emotional time.

Taking care of the details ahead of time
Final expense insurance is one way to prepare for the eventuality of death. This type of coverage is also called burial or "pre-need" insurance. Basically, you choose what products and services you want as part of your funeral, up to a certain amount. You prepay some or all of the costs, and the insurance company then issues you a policy, which is its pledge to pay the actual expenses at the time of your death.

Choosing how you want your funeral handled
Is your family aware of your final wishes? This can be an emotional subject to talk about at any time. You may already have ideas that you haven't discussed with anybody, what kind of service you want, whether you want to be buried or cremated, even whether you want to be an organ donor or donate your body for research. These are your decisions to make, and you can make them now with final expense insurance.
