The cost of having life insurance has fallen by 70 per cent over the last 30 years. Duncan Caesar-Gordon, the head of protection at the PO, reportedly commented: "Thinking about the future and how the family will cope should the unexpected happen is a worry that can be easily avoided by taking out life insurance .
