Depends on your insurance policy.

Especially not if its in the first year of the policy.

Most will pay after 1 to 2 years.



AD&D generally will not, as suicide is not an "accident"

Way I heard it no, but I have since heard of the policy being upheld.

Earlier this year the pastor of a guy at work had her husband kill himself in front of her during an argument. Last I heard she did get the policy upheld.

It's frightening to me the number of people who don't read their policies and get their information about this from mystery movies.

Or GD.  

As has been said, read your policy.  The terms of said policy are often dictated by state law.

My dad's did, even though he blew a hole in his chest with a .45 and it was bc it had been over 20 years since he started the policy. The suicide clause was for only 2 years.

I have a whole life policy that had a 2 year exclusionary period.  I assume most policies do.

He was committing a crime (drugs) when he died, that means no money.

yes
if  it looks like an accident like
single car crash late at night on a country road
fall off a balcony at a motel or a party at a friends apartment after a few drinks
the list goes on
just dont leave a note or make it known what you intend to do

The policies that I have/ have had did. Both had two year exclusion windows. One would not pay anything during the two year window. The other limited payments during the two year window to the amount of premiums paid.

Folks on this board have killed themselves before.  Regardless of how much we fight and squabble, no one wants to see anyone else die.  If you're hurting and need to reach out to someone, you've got plenty of folks here willing to listen.

They usually do if after a 2 year exclusion period.  They usually won't if one dies doing something illegal.  say you shoot your wife dead and then turn the gun on yourself they most likely will not pay

Don't do it.  You'll fuck you're family up for generations.  

Plus there is so much cool shit in the world.  Catching a sailfish, riding a motorcycle, spearfishing, funyuns, Reese's peanut butter cups, an ice cold Corona on a hot ass Florida day, jumping in a 72 degree spring on a 110 degree day, hot girls, guns, corvettes, hanging with an old friend reminiscing.  All cool shit.  

Don't let life get to you.  It's hard, everyone has their own problems to deal with too.  You're not alone.  Get some help.  I'm on ambien, I won't remember this in the morning.

Most states have a two year contestability and suicide clause in their policies.    

Here in Wisconsin..  The policy language is largely regulated by the State.  So, if you want to jump off a bridge one day after your two year policy anniversary date?  We pay.

Edit....   Most people who have ever asked me that question, do so jokingly.  However, I can say without exception, based on my 30+ years in this field...  No amount of life insurance - no matter how big the policy - will ever fill the hole left in a loved ones life when someone commits suicide.  Please talk with someone if you are in a dark place.

Mine would pay out after two years.  No plans on cashing it out that way though.

Don't put that guilt on your family.  That's a selfish ass hole thing to do.  If you are in a hole, dig yourself out.  There are many many resources out there to help you.  All you have to do is ask.

Better to state it in a fucked up way, than not state it at all. If this is the cry for help the OP can manage right now, that's great. Any attempt at something positive is awesome. Now people can offer help. Now we can talk about what's going on. I've been too fucked up to ask for help 'properly' before. It's ok. We can work with this.
