Income Protection/ Replacement Insurance

“The number one thing I tell all my medical professional clients is that anyone earning over $50,000p.a. should without doubt have Income Protection insurance, it’s a no-brainer. We all insure our cars and houses, but our most important asset is our own earning ability”

Income Protection is designed to help you avoid the financial stress of drawing down on your assets or taking on more debt in the event you become unable through some physical impediment to continue your normal duties in the workplace.  This could come about because of sickness or accident, which stops an individual from earning income either permanently or for a temporary period of time. Income Protection Insurance can provide a monthly benefit of 75% of your income if you are off work due to injury or sickness.

The other thing is, the insurance premium for this type of insurance cover is tax deductible!!
