How Long Would You Get by Without Income Protection?

How long could you get by on your emergency fund and savings if you couldn't work? You know, the emergency fund is your first line of defense. Income protection then can pick up from there and carry on for you. If any of these risks happen, that impact is what you're trying to cover with insurance. It's no point having too much insurance. I think it's worth thinking about what would happen if you were to leave work.
