<tease>What will these changes affect?</tease>
<reveal>
<p>Depending on the kind of insurance you have and the information you change, your changes can directly affect your yearly income, expenses, and net worth, which can cause changes in the Lifetime Planner's Action Plan and Bottom Line.</p>

<tease>What should I do when I renew an existing life insurance policy?</tease>
<reveal>
<p>If you've entered the policy as an annual renewable term policy, click <emph>Edit</emph>, click <emph>Payment Info</emph>, and then update the payment information. If the policy is another kind of term insurance, treat the renewal policy as a new policy. Add it to your plan, using the renewal date as its purchase date.</p>
<p>If you want, you can delete the expired policy. However, it will no longer affect your lifetime plan after it has expired.</p>
