How can you find out If your ex has a life insurance policy on you from 18 years ago?

Friend has had a bitter divorce and sort of remembers a life insurance policy taken (not sure of the company) out on him at the time ( for the children) well he has paid all his support and Ex lives alone 2000 miles away now.

But he still fears she might come back and kill him for the policy if she needs money bad enough.

His children moved away from her because she is psychotic in 2012 and they know there is a policy but everything was always locked up like Fort Knox so how could he find out?

He really would like to cancel it but he let her hold the policy on him ( it was dirt cheap back then) and he never thought things would end up with her so hateful and mean- he's a really nice guy!

"

(I think the insurance industry should ONLY allow the person who the policy is on to be the "policy holder"- my guess is MANY people would not be Murdered each year if this was the case!)

Like him - I don't think most people realize this.

    I think your friend is being paranoid. My mom and dad divorced almost 15 years ago and she has a life insurance policy on him too. Neither me nor my sister are of a dependency age anymore. She probably just has it so in the event he dies his kids can help bury him plus have some sort of inheritance. That's why my mom still has my dad's life insurance policy.

    "he still fears she might come back and kill him for the policy if she needs money bad enough" - If she thinks she's going to get any money from the policy by killing him, she's in a for a big, big surprise. There is no policy that will pay the beneficiary if the beneficiary is the cause of the death.

    You can get life insurance for anyone you'd like. Call up State Farm and ask for a policy for Donald Trump, and name Hillary Clinton as the beneficiary if you want.

    But he's safe. If she murdered him then she wouldn't be able to collect.

    If they are divorced she wouldn't be able to get the money if he was to die any way. If he has changed his will which im sure he has.. it would go to his kids.
