Protecting your income

BusinessWeek had an online article this week urging people to get disability insurance.  It touched on the no no of touching retirement accounts.

As the article stated:  “Digging into retirement accounts before retiring is a big no-no. Americans should heed two methods to safeguard savings: set aside a liquid cushion and buy disability insurance.”

Also the article went on to say:  “If you have the right disability protection in place, then you won’t have to worry about liquidating or discontinuing your retirement savings because of a debilitating injury or illness.”
