How can salary insurance help you?
Why take out disability income insurance?
Long-term disability can have devastating consequences. Your salary is the basis of your financial situation. In the event of an accident or serious illness How would you go about replacing that money? Many will say that they can use their savings or investments, but if you save a certain percentage of your salary each year, as little as a few months of disability could deprive you of 5 years of retirement. Also, in the case of RRSPs, there will be taxation at source.
So, being prepared for a work stoppage will give you peace of mind and the financial security.
A common misconception is that salary insurance is only for the self-employed, business owners or anyone who doesn't have access to government employment insurance. Think again: this type of product can be very useful for employees who don't have group insurance.
