PSA: Only 22% of initial Social Security Disability Insurance claims are approved! That’s essentially a 78% denial rate off the bat!

In this episode, get the facts about government DI benefits. Find out the importance of contextualizing the total maximum benefit which, in the private marketplace, can be millions of dollars (vs. around $75,000 maximum for California’s state disability potential – both programs cost 1-2% of your income!).  Get more bang for your buck by looking at the big picture, plus, hear a brief discussion on the concept of universal basic income.
