    It's called 'Income Replacement' an insurance policy that you can buy! All (if they have any sense) would have this type of policy to cover such eventualities.

    In my daughter's case, his practice will still continue to pay his salary - even if he didn't work.

    Your son in law is a solicitor. So he can afford to pay into a policy like that.
    How would someone on minimum wage be able to afford it.
    You are sounding more and more like a toff Tory with every post!

    Thankyou - that is the trouble with people today. No one will do anything unless they are compensated for it.

    It seems children expect to be compensated for looking after mum or dad.

    What a world we live in.


    What a lack of understanding and intelligence.
