To continue on my theme of preparing for the worst (I gotta be more positive!) I'm looking at disability insurance.
SS disability is long term, right? I know it can take a long time to kick in and there may be hoops to jump thru.
SS disability will pay me $1890 a month, and my job (disability retirment) will pay $2350 a month if I become disabled and can no longer perform my job. Not sure the burden of proof for either tho, but suspect both are long and hard processes with a lot of red tape.
So, how do I figure if I need short term disability, or additional long term?
