Have you ever considered that your income may be your greatest asset?

We insure our cars, our homes, our health but we often forget about our greatest asset: our ability to earn an income. Have you ever stopped to consider how your life would change if you no longer had a regular income to rely on?

Income protection insurance protects your earnings, in the event of illness or injury preventing you from working. This protection generally takes the form of a monthly payment of up to 75% of your average monthly income. Depending on your policy it can also cover 75% of superannuation contributions and some insurance policies can provide cash payments for partial disability.

Just how valuable is your earning ability?

Consider how much you earn, multiply that by how many years you have until retirement, and then add a factor for inflation, and pay increases. It doesn't take a mathematician to work out that some people may be risking literally hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars if they were to suffer a long-term medical condition without income protection.

Annual Salary Years to retirement
10 15 25
$50,000 $659,000 $1,163,000 $2,743,000
$60,000 $730,000 $1,396,000 $3,291,000
$80,000 $1,054,000 $1,862,000 $4,388,000
$100,000 $1,318,000 $2,326,000 $5,486,000
$150,000 $1,977,000 $3,489,000 $8,229,000
$200,000 $2,636,000 $6,978,000 $10,972,000

Don't count on sick leave or workers compensation: once sick leave expires your employer is under no obligation to support you and workers compensation only applies to work-related injuries. Add to that the fact that over half of all serious injuries happen outside of work where WorkCover doesn't apply*.

If you were unfortunate enough to be the victim of an accident or serious illness, income protection insurance cover would leave you free to concentrate on your recovery instead of worrying about financial strain.
