- Age: The younger the applicant, the cheaper the insurance.
- Gender: Women often live longer than men, so they pay less.
- Insurance for non-smokers is significantly less than for smokers.
- Overweight individuals pay more, so their whole life insurance quotes are higher.
- The healthier the immediate family, the greater the likelihood the applicant will remain healthy.

- Good drivers are generally healthier-and get a cheaper quote.
- The more risky the job, the higher the quote.
- Dangerous hobbies translate into higher premiums.
- The better the credit rating, the lower the whole life insurance quote.
