Yeah, this is true....if you can die with no property, wealth or obligations that you want satisfied. Either that, or if all of the saving that you are doing is 100% tax efficient, and there are no worries then.

Life insurance is meant to replace lost income. A rule of thumb is the insurance value should be 8-10 times your annual income in order to replace your income. If, through investments you manage to create a pool of money which could replace your income upon death, you are now self insured.
