All Life Insurance Tips

27, single, no kids, great health, should i get term life insurance?

I spoke to an agent and he recommended life insurance (since in the future I plan on having a family, kids husband). Term insurance for 10 20 or 30 years is pretty cheap ranging from 10-16 bucks a month for me, whole life is A LOT more. I understand the rate for whole life will just keep going up as i get older, but he said it would make sense for me to get term just so I can take the medical test and in the future 10 years (or before the term life insurance expires) I decide to get a whole life policy with the same company (met life) they would still quote me a premium at the health I had when I got my term policy (in case my health were to worsen).... Am i Making sense.. So basically he said to get the term insurance just so I can take the test now and wont have to in the future (20-30 years) which by then who knows what my health may be....My age will pay a factor at that time at how much whole life will be, but my health work for me and not against me.... What do you say? (then by 20 years I can really see if im going the route of having kids etc)
