Disability coverage is expensive, but the peemium is commensurate with the risk. If a carpenter who is 27 years old falls off a ladder and can't work for the remainder of his normal working life it is a multi-million dollar claim. There are a lot of reasons that someone could face these issues (illness or injury) so while the premium seems high it's based on the claims experience from the insurers point of view.
