Ziad, aged 34, was an elementary school teacher for several years. However, staffing cutbacks and his love of food have prompted him to go into business. He just purchased a pizza franchise (taking a $150,000 personal loan to finance the venture) and entered into a five-year lease for his business. Ziad owns a 20-year term life insurance policy with a face amount of $250,000. He is also covered for some benefits under his wife’s group insurance plan, but knows he needs additional coverage. What type of accident and sickness coverage should Ziad purchase first?
