		</div><h2>What it is, why people opt for it&#8230;</h2>
<p>Ever hear of critical illness insurance? This isn’t standard-issue disability insurance, but a cousin of sorts. With people living longer, it is a risk management option entering more people’s lives.</p>

		</div><p>THE “I’LL NEVER NEED IT” INSURANCE&#8230;</p>
<p>Why disability insurance could be<br />
the most important insurance you DON’T have.</p>
<p>Provided by Duaine Owings</p>
<p>Are you going to live forever? Of course not. As someone once said, life is terminal – and no one gets out alive. Most of us understand that and have accepted it. We all want to leave this world with our financial affairs in good order. So we draft a will and an estate plan, and we purchase life insurance. But few of us consider disability insurance – the coverage that can help us maintain our income and quality of life while we are alive.</p>
