How would you cope financially if you got really sick?
Life is full of up’s and downs, joyous occasion and difficult challenges. When things are good, we hope to have people to share those good times with, and when things are challenging, we hope to have the supports around us to help us weather the storm.
Out of action
One of the biggest challenges we can face, is encountering a serious illness that takes us out of action for a period of time. Everything from work to play needs to take a pause as we take on what could be the challenge of our lives.Â
Hopefully we’re in a position where we can get sick pay from work, or benefit from social welfare if its a prolonged battle, but not all employers operate the same, and not all of us are eligible for social welfare entitlements.
Continuing costs regardless
Unfortunately however, not everything can be paused. Mortgage Payments, Childcare, Household Running Costs, just to name a few, still need to be paid.
Depending on your illness you may even find additional expenses that Health insurance doesn’t cover, such as household alterations to help us live in a new norm. What if your sick for longer than your employer will pay an illness benefit for (if they have one)?
How can you ensure that you and your family can focus 100% on battling an illness, and avoid the added burden of financial concerns?
