Suicide doesn't disqualify from insurance - it only disqualifies a ruling of "accidental death" (such as murder), which gives the beneficiary double the policy amount.

Suicide clauses are standard practice..

I never heard of anyone who paid a small premium and who's beneficiaries were guaranteed a fortune without the stipulation that they couldn't kill themselves being part of the contract.

If death occurs within two years from the effective date of insurance, an investigation will be conducted. Death benefits may not be paid if a medical condition was falsely represented or if the insured committed suicide while sane or insane.

Accelerated Death Benefits are not payable if there is an absolute assignment; an irrevocable beneficiary who does not give written consent; a court decree involving the life insurance in connection with a divorce agreement; or the illness is due to intentionally self-inflicted injury or attempted suicide.
