Disability Insurance should be the number one priority in terms of benefit protection because, unless a person is very wealthy, one cannot normally self-insure the ability to work.
Although many people think first about dental insurance, for example, because of an impending expense for major dental work, a much sounder approach is to have Disability Insurance in place first, and if necessary, finance over time any infrequent major expense. It just makes sense to protect the asset that’s most valuable - your ability to earn an income makes possible all the other elements of your life.

It’s by far your most valuable asset: your ability to work and earn an income.
Yet more than half of working Canadians have not purchased disability insurance to protect this asset, perhaps simply hoping nothing will ever happen to them.
While none of us wish to contemplate misfortune, the truth is that disability has no respect for age, gender, occupation or position when it strikes unexpectedly through sudden illness or accident.
