You need more. ASAP
Outside of your employer unles yours is portable. Most through work are not.
You are healthy today and qualify. There could come a day when you are uninsurable. Load up now while the underwriters will approve you.

I'm not sure what you are asking, so I'll say just insurance

Enough to pay off the mortgage and all debt. Plus a bit to make life easier. Kids are adults now.

You might be surprised at how many policies are portable. 9x seems like plenty

How much does one need? I’m 43 with about $800K total savings including 401K

Those portable policies through employers can cost a lot if you leave your job.
