Zach asks an integral question for our financial plan. What happens if we get sick or hurt? What do our group benefits do? What can we do if we don't have group benefits? Listen in as we do a quick overview of some of the pitfalls of group benefit disability and how impactful an illness or injury can be to our financial health and plan. Many of us don't think about it or believe it will happen to us, but we see GoFundMe's every week. These issues derail our financial plans, making all the work and saving we did all for not.
