Insurance
Today we live in an insurance society. It is a fact and we may as well get used to it. We have insurance on our cars, homes, businesses, health, life, even our pets. Reportedly, the guitarist Chet Atkins had his fingers insured, and Betty Grable her legs.
Insurance is expensive, but it just makes good sense to protect what we have that is of value from unforeseen events.
Health insurance may be one of the most expensive as well as the most necessary insurances. One generation ago, the average person hardly new what health insurance was and now one of the first questions a person asks when applying for a job is, "Is insurance provided?" Some married couples both work, not because they cannot get along on one income, but because one of their jobs provides medical insurance.
Car insurance is more of a concern today as it is required of all drivers. There are about as many options available when getting auto insurance quotes as with health insurance.
2000 years ago a man stated, "you do not know what tomorrow will bring" hence many today are interested also in life insurance, as a protection to their family.
Likely the largest purchase for the average person today is one's home. With that much at stake home insurance is considered vital. In the event of a fire or storm that destroys your home, without homeowners insurance all you may have left is house payments (that could continue for the next 20-30 years).
In the past if a fire destroyed a man's business, he either started rebuilding from scratch as he could or gave up. Today the average business owner has some business insurance to protect him if a disaster strikes. Even contractors that may not own, and do business from, a building have their tools covered under a business insurance policy.
Somewhat new on the horizon is pet insurance for what has become astronomical medical costs for pets. Not limited to race horses, but average dogs and cats that are loved by their owners. Many pet owners spend thousands of dollars on a pet in a lifetime, often without insurance. This insurance is fast becoming very popular.
So, bottom-line, what should you do?
Consider your needs, and what insurance will cover those needs.
Do research and find the cheapest insurance rates available.
Carefully consider exactly what is covered and what isn't when you get insurance quotes.
And then start making your insurance payments, like all the rest of us.
