Protecting Your Retirement Assets
The Need
A disability impacts more than just your paycheck. If you became disabled and no longer received a salary, you may not be able to:
- Contribute to your retirement plan
- Receive an employer match on those contributions (if available)
- Contribute to social security
The Solution
DI Retirement Security from Principal Life Insurance Company helps you continue saving for retirement in the event of a disability.
The Benefits
- If you become too sick or hurt to work, your Individual Disability Income insurance policy would begin paying monthly benefits to you (after the elimination period has been satisfied) to help pay daily living expenses.
- At the same time, your DI Retirement Security benefits are invested on your behalf into an irrevocable trust – helping you continue saving for retirement.
- At age 65 or 67, you receive payments from the trust – helping you enjoy your retirement. These benefits are paid until the funds are depleted.[2]
