Three ways Income Protection cover can help your career and your wallet

In the last two weeks we have talked about critical illness and disability cover, and why they’re important in your risk portofolio. This week, we’re discussing a risk that seems more real for most people: retrenchment. In today’s tough times, more than a quarter of our country is unemployed. Retrenchment has become a real phenomenon […]

Don’t disable the rest of your life

If critical illness cover (which we talked about last week) is a hard pill to swallow, disability insurance is often even more so. “I’m not disabled and I never will be!” we tell ourselves, envisioning wheelchairs, construction workers falling off scaffolding or labourers losing a limb in a freak accident.

Just imagine: you go to buy a suit, then walk twenty paces and are at your local grocer, able to buy food for supper. You don’t need to go to your local butcher or fishmonger because they’re both in there, and the locksmiths and dry cleaners can be reached in less than five minutes’ walking. […]
