[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you're being prudent. But statistically the risk is usually low for people in their 20s. And I think it's hard to qualify for SSDI. [/quote] It is rare, but we have kidney failure/transplant in the family unfortunately, and it hit early, as well as another illness that automatically qualifies people for SSDI. Not 20s but still... it's definitely on my mind. [/quote] Then it's realistic for your family. I remember being proud when I got my 40 credits. I knew someone whose underage siblings were partly supported by the survivor's benefit. It's important to have safety nets.[/quote]
