    When I started my I went into HESTA Super. This was given by my employer. The default is that I receive two units of death cover insurance. This means that I have to pay more.

    If I have no dependents at all, then would I really need death cover? Should I just get rid of it?

    if you don't have a partner or dependants, then i would not have it.

    death cover is good to say pay out a family home in case the main breadwinner dies...
