SAVAGE SAYS: Why do you want to buy life insurance?  Who would be the beneficiary – the person who gets the money when you die?  How old is the beneficiary, and how long would he/she need this coverage on your life?  Are you in good health?  Write back with the answers and I can point you in the right direction.  Or go to www.TIAACREF.org — and read the series of columns I just posted there, which will give you some perspective on your question.
