I am paying €184.50 per month for income protection insurance through Friends Frist. This amount is to cover my salary of €3,000 per rmonth. Apparently, as I am a psychiatric nurse and not a general nurse, the policy is more expensive. However, now I am going part-time and my salary will only be €1,650 per month. I will hopefully be part-time for the next few years as I have two young children 4 and 6. I have no mortgage, no car loan, two investment properties and money in the bank from a house sale. My question is should I continue paying this insurance? Is it worth keeping it just in case. Presumably the company would only pay out my current salary of €1,650 per month. Would I find it difficult to get such insurance again - I'm 42. Any advice greatly appreciated.
