Money matters.* Many of us think of our
personal and professional lives as separate, but when it comes to
cash flow, they're inextricably linked. Our work begets
paycheques, and our paycheques beget nights out, nights in, and
just about everything in between. This means that the ramifications
of a disability, illness, or accident that keeps you out of work
can be catastrophic—especially if you aren't
prepared.
Did you know that nearly half of Canadian households report
financial hardship when someone has to take time off due to a
disability?1
That's a reality Laura Wise, Wealth Advisor and Financial
Planner at Lawyers Financial Advisory Services, says young lawyers
should be aware of. "I've been in this industry for over
25 years," she says. "I've seen a lot of bad things
happen to good people."
