WHAT IH> PEOPLE BUDGET FOR LIFE INSURANCE Is It true that people put 16 percent into life insurance premi ums, as agents usually say they should. Not by a long shot. University of Michigan statisti cians, working with data from Federal Reserve board surveys, say the average is closer to 4% after-tax Income. Only about sev en polity holders out of every 160 earmark as much us 10% of their budget for life Insurance premi ums, most of these people being in the bottom and top brackets. Among the $7,560 or over families about 12 out of every 160 manage It, while another 21 allocate be tween 5 anti 10% of their Incomes. Wrlta or Call THE D E A N C L IN IC Standard Insurance Co. ?
