Fundamentally, it's paycheck protection. Most American workers have 90 days of cash reserves.

While many people think, "Oh, my savings will take care of me while I recover," they forget that some illnesses or injuries can be disabling for the rest of a person's life. Having disability insurance provides you with the security of knowing that, even in the case of a prolonged injury or sickness, you'll still receive a monthly income for a pre-determined amount of time.Answered on September 9, 2013flag this answer
