For a pre-born, I'll recommend Prudential as it has the best coverage & pioneer in that category compared to other insurers

Should I buy now or wait after deliver?

I am a working male, 36, non-smoker, married with 2 kids (6yo and 3yo), wife is working. My monthly salary is 18k, wife is 9k. Outstanding home loan 627k, no MRTA.

Below is my current insurance plan from Generali:
- Life/TPD (150k, age 100)
- Accelerated CI rider (50k, age 100)
- 110 CI care (150k, age 81)
- Hospital income (RM200, age 75)
- Premium payer rider (age 100)
- Medical card (Annual limit 1.6mil, no life limit, age 80)

Questions:
- Any comment on my current plan?
- I feel like my life/TPD not really sufficient, should I top up or buy from other company?
- Is there better plan in the market? If yes, should I switch?

Just kay poh asking, ...
With 2 young dependents....
What about your wife's side?
I think life and ci should increase ...
Need to consider your total liabilities vs income vs the amount left after needed expenses.

Do note that the premium will hv drastic increase after age 51...that is the time your children will go into uni

Biggest liability only home loan, no car loan. Net combined income 20k. Amount left after needed expenses, around 10k.

If any thing like CI or  semi TPD, (loss of 1 arm or just 1 leg below knee) we're to happen to you, .... can your wife or other family members support your 2 child till working age?
You got no mrta to cover your housing loan incase of (full) TPD too..

Yes, but cannot expect with the same lifestyle now ba.

Are you open for a Financial Health Check?

It tells you exactly what amounts to have for a coverage, and exactly for what reasons.

The AIA one?
