Whether you still need life insurance after age 65 depends entirely on your current financial obligations and estate planning goals. If your mortgage is fully paid off, your children are financially independent, and you have accumulated robust retirement savings and pension reserves, the income-replacement purpose of term life insurance may no longer be necessary. However, older adults often keep permanent or final expense policies past age 65 to cover legacy debts, funeral expenses, or estate taxes.
