Film Transcript / Subtitles
Mr. Driver, I'm a veteran of World War II, and I still have my GI term insurance, but, of course, the premium goes up every five years. Is there anything I can do about this?
There's something you can do, Jack, but you do have a problem. You and about two million other veterans have retained your term insurance. It was a bargain when you took it out in your 20s, but now that you approach middle age and even higher age groups, it's not so much of a bargain.
We have seven permanent plans you can consider converting your term insurance into. Under any one of these permanent plans, your premiums would remain the same from one year to the next. I suggest you consider converting your term insurance.
So what I should do is just hike myself off to a veteran's assistance center or...
Yes, an assistance center or a VA hospital or a VA regional office. Any one of them would have people prepared to guide you.
Thank you, sir.
Remember, veterans, for information about GI insurance and other benefits, check with your local VA office.
