[quote=livinincali] Social Security Disability by itself is about $1300/month on average. Of course most fire and police have a separate disability fund that is run by the city they work for. For example NYPD has this program. http://www.nyc.gov/html/nycppf/html/tier_3/tier_3_disability_retirement.shtml
So for example a NYPD with 25 years of service making $100K per year would get $100 *(25*0.2) = $50K – (15K*.5) = $42500/yr.[/quote]
Right, but the article says that SSDI is $30 to $50K. I’m not even sure that they’re eligible for SSDI. Some public employees aren’t.
