I'm not a financial expert, but I think some people buy life insurance for babies sometimes because by the time they grow up it has a lot of equity in it? Something along those lines.

I guess I'm not familiar with this kind of life insurance. I had life insurance by default with my super and there was no way to somehow convert it into cash. The money I paid for it just went to the insurance company, and they'd pay a certain amount if I died or suffered severe illness or injury. When I cancelled it I just stopped paying and they gave me nothing. This kind seems more like a savings account or investment?

It's probably an endowment policy with a buy-out clause.

That's term life insurance, where if you die between the start date and the end date it pays out. Whole life insurance has a savings vehicle, where your premiums are saved and invested. You can withdraw your premiums for cash, but it reduces or terminates the policy.
