If the budget is β±2,000/month:
iPhone: β±2,000 Γ 24 months = β±48,000
You end up with a phone worth less than what you originally paid because technology depreciates.
Life Insurance: β±2,000 Γ 12 months = β±24,000/year
Instead of asking βWhat can β±2,000 buy me today?β, the better question is:What financial problem can β±2,000/month help protect my family from?
Life insurance products can provide benefits such as death benefits, and some policies may also have cash values or other benefits depending on the specific contract.
Both can fit the same monthly budget. The difference is what that monthly payment is designed to do. An iPhone gives you something you can enjoy today. Life insurance gives you something your family can rely on when life doesn't go according to plan.
If you already have β±2,000/month available for a commitment, would you rather use it only for something that benefits you while you're here, or also use it to create financial protection for the people who depend on you?
