Everyone knows Met Life, or Metropolitan Life, with Snoopy as their mascot and considering they’ve been in business for over 150 years.
As of 3/6/2017, Met Life has changed their name to Brighthouse Life Insurance Company for all of their individual life insurance business.
It may be too soon to know yet, but as far as we know they will still be a great company that can have some really awesome rates and products for some people.
So in what niche is Met Life/Brighthouse Life competitive?
If you smoke marijuana and need life insurance, then you have to get a quote from Met Life as they have some extremely liberal guidelines for pot smokers!
If you’ve had a positive alcohol marker or CDT (carbohydrate-deficient transferrin), which is a test that insurance companies use to determine if you are abusing alcohol, then Met Life should always be considered as they tend to be more liberal than most other companies when there’s a positive alcohol marker.
Met Life should always be considered for low stage or in situ cancer with treatment ending more than 5 years ago. This is especially the case for colon cancer, breast cancer, kidney cancer, melanoma, uterine cancer, testicular cancer and thyroid cancer.
If you’re any type of commercial or private pilot, Met Life could make you the best offer for life insurance.
Met Life has a fairly liberal height/weight chart, so they should at least be considered for people who are overweight.
While they my not show up as having the absolute best term life insurance rates at your age, they can be very competitive for term insurance if you may fall into one of their niche’s.
