Get Life Protection — Topic Bank (Consumer)

Curated list of consumer life-insurance topics for getlifeprotection.com blog posts. These are real questions everyday people search. The generator picks from here (or takes a topic argument). Before writing, ALWAYS check _data/content-index.json to confirm the topic and slug are not already published. Do not duplicate an existing post; if a topic here is already covered, skip it.

This is a CONSUMER topic bank. It is NOT the advisor brand (no IUL-arbitrage, leverage, Rockefeller, generational-wealth-for-business-owners angles). Every topic should be answerable in the GLP voice (a knowledgeable friend over coffee), with qualifying carrier language, no guarantees, no quoted premiums, soft CTAs.

NOTES FOR THE GENERATOR

Pick topics that pair naturally with internal links to existing posts (use content-index.json) and to product pages (/life-insurance/term/, /whole-life/, /final-expense/, /iul/) and the quote / policy-review pages.
Prefer topics with clear consumer search intent and a reframe-able assumption.
One topic per post. Keep slugs distinct from everything in content-index.json.
Rotate across the categories above so the blog stays varied (not five health-condition posts in a row).
