10 common questions about pet insurance for expatriates
A 2025 World Health Organisation report reveals that 1 in 3 professionals aged 30 -55 yrs of age now exhibit pre-stroke symptoms, driven by a toxic cocktail of:
- Digital Overload: 67% check work emails within 15 minutes of waking up in the morning
- Fiscal Instability: Rising inflation rates, the average mortgage payments consume 42% of income in all EU countries
- Career Instability: 58% fear AI replacement within 5 years
This creates physiological havoc:
- Sleep quality scores plummeting to 4.2/10 (global average)
- Hypertension rates doubling
The Harsh Reality of Stroke Recovery
- 23 months: Average disability period post-stroke for professionals
- €142,000: Typical 2-year care cost (therapy + lost income)
- 45% career derailment rate: Even after physical recovery
A stroke acts as a biological “reset button,” triggering cascading changes across every dimension of life. A majority of stroke survivors need mobility equipment to assist them in their day-to-day activities, walkers, electric chairs, modified cars. Most importantly they need to have therapy from Occupational therapists and Physiotherapists and even speech therapists and in extreme cases carers on a continuous basis and it is all so expensive.
By taking out an insurance policy it will help confront these expenses. People always relate life insurances to older people and mortgages but now with changing times it is the younger people that need to be protected as it is an all too common problem and we are forever hearing of people having a stroke or a heart attack and not only do they have to live with the consequences also face financial problems and this is why if you are sensible you will take out a policy to cover these cost should it happen to you.
We all insure our cars without thinking twice so why not take out a policy to cover yourself? A stroke isn’t the end it is merely the beginning of designing life on your terms. The insurance? This is greater help and friend when facing a life time change.
Stroke is no longer an ‘old person’s disease’ – it’s the industrial injury of the digital age
