How Much Coverage DO I Need?

Income Protection is meant to keep enough money flowing into your household if you're disabled and unable to work, so it's important to look at your expenses and determine how much you'll need for replacement. If the Disability becomes long term, planning for things like retirement, future living expenses and children's education expenses is essential.
