Disability statistics
It’s always interesting to me to see statistics regarding disability . Follow the link to this chart that shows the likelihood of a long term disability as compared to someone dying at different ages. Most people with families think about life insurance and rightly so but except for physicians, dentists and other medical professionals, we find that for most people there is more attention on life insurance than on insuring for loss of income . Interestingly, when someone does become aware of the statistics and realities of disability they want to find out how they can insure what is usually their biggest asset - their ability to earn an income.
