Why are fewer people buying life insurance?
Insurance expert Dr. Puneet Prakash weighs in.
After peaking in 1971, the percentage of families covered by life insurance has dropped steadily, from a high of 85.4% to 59.4% in 2019. Financial experts say life insurance is still a “huge need.” So why don’t more people buy it?
Dr. Puneet Prakash, professor in the finance and risk management department at Missouri State University, offers a few reasons why to Policygenius.

Solar Power
Over 2,500 solar panels on our Montpelier, VT campus, 500kw on our back field and 73kw on our roof provides nearly 15 percent of the main office power demand during summer months.
Renewable Thermal Energy
Our primary winter heating system is fueled by locally sourced woodchips, which saves 200,000 gallons of fuel oil and the associated 2,240 tons of carbon emissions per year. A solar hot water system supplies about half of the hot water used in our Vermont office.
