I am looking to get short term/long term insurance on myself. My employer does not offer it, nor does my auto/home insurance Co.
Does anyone have any recommendations? If it matters, I'm in TN.

Shop around. See what the best policy for YOU and your budget is. I've had some agents/financial planners try to sell me wayyy too much coverage and be very aggressive about it. Don't be afraid to ask to see what is covered and what is not. You might get push back, some agents don't like that and just want you to buy what they first offer no questions asked.(they just want their large commissions) But you wouldn't buy any other item before knowing EXACTLY what you are buying. If they don't want to give you details, tell them thank you and move on. There are many insurance agents/financial planners that are very experienced and good out there.
My thoughts are that you can recover financially from a STD, but you can not recover from a LTD. Spend your money on insurance for the things you can't recover from.
