basically 10 years of wages, enough time to get settled and then some.

5/14/19 10:15pm

just insurance? Or insurance + savings?

I'm not sure what you are asking, so I'll say just insurance

5/14/19 10:19pm

I’ve looked at total sum (savings + insurance)

Enough to pay off the mortgage and all debt. Plus a bit to make life easier. Kids are adults now.

Depends on age of youngest child

Depends on your age, your kids’ ages, number of kids, age of spouse, how much

My company does 2x salary by default with option for up to additional 7x.

You might be surprised at how many policies are portable. 9x seems like plenty

How much does one need? I’m 43 with about $800K total savings including 401K

Looks like it is portable. Just checked the handbook

Those portable policies through employers can cost a lot if you leave your job.

Enough not to have to use the logic that she’ll remarry quickly and be fine.

I'm not going to be around to spend it, so bare minimum
