Will you have to dip into your savings or other assets? And will your savings, the equity in your home, your retirement nest egg, and your other assets be able to carry you through until you’re recovered and able to return to work?

Rate Calculation Example:

A 35-year-old would like a $2,000 monthly disability benefit with a 90-day waiting period:
Monthly cost per $100 for a 90-day waiting period for a 35-year-old = $.50
$2,000 monthly benefit divided by $100 (cost per monthly benefit) = $20
$.50 x $20 = $10 monthly cost

Disclosure to Third Parties

• We disclose personal information with third parties or affiliates that we in good faith believe are appropriate to enable them to provide services to you and to contact you regarding additional products and/or services that you have expressed an interest.

• Cooperation in investigations of suspected fraud or other illegal activity, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, or to conduct investigations of violations of the -site’s Terms of Use or the Terms of Service Agreement, or as otherwise required by law. This may also include protecting and defending the rights, property, or safety of AGIA, other users of this Site or responding to claims that any content violates the rights of third parties.

• As otherwise permitted by federal or state law.
