Youth Day is about more than just remembering the past, it’s about owning your future. While life insurance might not be the first thing on your mind in your twenties, it’s one of the smartest ways to start building financial freedom, especially if you’re thinking long-term.

You’re Not Invincible, But That’s OK!

It’s easy to feel untouchable when you’re young, but the stats tell another story. Road accidents are one of the leading causes of death among South African youth, and many young people are also financially responsible for siblings, parents, or partners.

With a life insurance policy, you can ensure that if you had to pass away, the people you care about you aren’t left with debt or bills they can’t pay. Whether it’s making sure your student loans don’t become your parents’ problem, helping your family with the funds to give you a dignified farewell or leaving something to your younger siblings, your cover steps in when the people you love need it the most.

 

MiWayLife Makes It Easy

At MiWayLife, we like to keep life insurance simple and straightforward. It works like this - for a monthly premium, you’ll be offered a set amount of coverage that’s paid out in a lump sum to your beneficiaries in the event of your passing. The cover under this benefit will grow by 5% each year. Our 4-in-1 policy also includes an accelerated funeral benefit, terminal illness benefit and funeral cover for you and your family members – all for one premium!

Your Youth Is Your Discount

The great thing about getting life insurance while you’re young and healthy is that you can lock in lower premiums. With MiWayLife, our fully digital, hassle-free sign-up process means you can get a personalised quote in minutes – no paperwork, no medical exams, no waiting in queues.
