My mom bought 20-year term life insurance policies for my two sons when they were young in the 1970s. I know she finished paying on them, and I know she didn't cash them out. When my kids were in their late 20s, Mom told me she was going to give the policies to them so they could put whatever beneficiary they wanted on them. After she passed away, I found that neither of my sons even knew these policies existed. Now what do I do? -- Judith, email Dear Judith: This is confusing. You say she bought 20-year term life insurance policies. The nature of term insurance is that it provides coverage for a period of time, in this case 20 years.
