You continue to post inaccuracies that merit a response. In the real world you don't pay tax, pension or health care premiums on compensation benefits or long term disability payments so the discount you claim is false. The net value of such payments is close to your take home pay which is exactly why such benefits typically pay 66 2/3% of your insured salary.
