What’s Up With Disability Insurance?

You ever play a game with someone and they “forget” to tell you all of the rules, so you make a bunch of moves in one direction with one strategy in mind only to find out that everything you thought was right is wrong?

I definitely have, and there’s no worse feeling than that sinking pit in your stomach when you realize you are about to lose the game.

The problem with that sinking feeling is that it can happen in real life, and it can happen to any of us.

One of the places we think we know the rules but we are often mistaken (and mistaken until we can’t do anything about it) is disability insurance.

You may think that your employer or the state has you covered when it comes to disability insurance, but you could be sorely mistaken.

Often disability insurance doesn’t cover all of your actual needs. Sure, there would be something there, but you’d be living well below your usual standard of living.

I thought I’d take a minute to mention this to you because I didn’t want you to be playing without knowing all of the rules.

And there is an easy way to shift this game in your favor – purchase supplemental disability insurance.

No, I don’t sell this stuff. And yes, I have supplemental disability insurance myself.

If you don’t know where you stand, at least take some time to look into your current situation.

I never want you to get that sinking feeling in your stomach again… Hope you have a great weekend. Talk to you soon!
