A
lot of people assume that if they suffer an accident, sickness or disability
that stops them from working, the State will step in to help. Have you compared
your current annual income with what you could expect to receive from the
State? At present, someone aged over 25 who was earning £35,000 per annum
before disability, can expect to receive state benefits of approximately
£4,900 per annum*. That’s only around 14% of the previous salary.....
Ø
....could
you live on just 14% of your current salary ? What sacrifices would you be
prepared to make ?
Ø
....and
could you survive financially for the first 13 weeks after an accident or
sickness?, when the Work Capability Assessment Benefit, will be the lower
amount of only £72.40 per week*.
If the answer is no
then you potentially have an income protection need that we can help you
with.
