Protection Map sample — The Millers, age 45, after closing the gaps, from Financial Risk Partners. Sample Protection Map · After: Gaps Closed · Summary Guide · Full Report · ← Back to Protection Map
In this example, 1 result still shows a gap: Holly's Ability to Earn. Disability coverage is generally limited (about 70% of take-home pay), so the rest — $1,400 a month for Holly — would come from savings and cash or lower spending. Every other gap is closed. Extended Care is covered today, but a gap can open later: Steve's and Holly's $500,000 long-term care benefits are each a fixed amount, while care costs are expected to rise 4% a year. If care were needed at age 80, it would cost about $887,870 in that year's dollars, so the benefit covers $500,000 of it and $387,870 is left to fund for each. The later care is needed, the larger the cost grows against a benefit that stays the same.

Losing a job, a long illness, needing care, losing someone you love — each one is hard enough emotionally. Being prepared financially means money doesn't become one more thing you have to fight. We love our families and want to protect them from everything we can. Here is where yours stands today — and what it would take to be ready.

Below are the four financial risks in your Protection Map, and where your household stands on each today.
