I recently was made aware of the option to obtain downside protection through my bundled home-auto-umbrella insurance agency. I'm a little skeptical, but I can't find much physician-specific info out there even on WCI. Anyone utilize downside protection or familiar with pros/cons, specifically as it relates to EM (delayed earning timeline and then potentially shorter career)? Not worth considering, reasonable at any stage, or more beneficial end of career/post-retirement?
Background: I'm aiming for FIRE with a simple focus on saving far more than I spend, as well as a traditional strategy of investing in low-fee index funds (3 fund portfolio, although slightly more aggressive allocation). Through my SDG, I maximize my pre-tax savings by reaching 401K limits and supplement with a CBP. Do the typical backdoor Roth contributions. Use my spouse's health insurance plan, which isn't a HDHP and so don't think I'm HSA eligible.
