TRUCKERS

A Plan designed with the Trucker in Mind!

Accidents and Sicknesses happen every day! What would you do if it happened to you?

Roadside is a package of benefits designed to provide you with protection should you become unable to work due to a disability.
Benefits, such as Loss of Income, which are paid monthly for the period of time you are disabled up to the maximum amount of time allowed in the policy contract.
Traditional disability plans protect “Earned Income” yet your objective through tax planning is to show as little earned income as possible. We know your lifestyle income is not your earned income. This is why benefits can be based on your Gross Business Revenue.

• Roadside Loss of Income provides benefit amounts between $1,000 to $5,000 per month
• You can have 24 hour coverage or Non-Occupational only.
• Payable from the FIRST DAY, to age 70

Sometimes a disability affects your ability to work part of the time. That’s when Partial Disability can help by paying 50% of the benefit amount for up to 180 days.

While you are disabled and benefits are being paid, you are not required to pay premiums and your coverage will continue.

Being approved for Critical Illness insurance can sometimes be difficult. It often depends on your health, or the history of your family’s health.

With the EDGE’s Critical Illness Plan it’s not complicated at all. EVERYONE can have coverage, regardless of your current health, or your family history. There are no medical questions asked.

Suffering a critical illness is more common than you think.
