Well, to throw a bunch of facts at you . . . According to the Social Security Administration, 1 in 3 Americans between ages 35 and 65 will become disabled for more than 90 days. They also say that one 1 in 7 workers won’t just become disabled, but they’ll be disabled for more than 5 years! Many people think disabilities arise from injuries at work, doing dangerous activities, etc., but in reality, about 90% of disabilities are caused by illnesses, NOT accidents. It’s better to protect yourself now, than to be sorry later!
