Purchasing terrorism coverage to add to your policy has many benefits as international trips are nowadays often interrupted by acts of terrorism.  If you have a travel insurance policy that includes terrorism coverage, you won’t have a problem paying for cancellation fees in case you decide to cut your vacation short due to a travel advisory issued by the U.S. State Department recommending that Americans avoid a certain country.

Other travel insurance companies focus on a city instead of the country. If you cancel or cut short a trip due to an act of terrorism at your destination either within 30 days of your scheduled arrival or while you are there,…

It is not new to your hearing that insurance brokers are snakes.  And we cannot agree more.  They are rattlesnakes, cobras, anacondas… Well, that’s a bit rash, but we would just like to emphasize a point: brokers do not have your best interest in mind.  Insurance brokers are still sticking around, but most of them are not being honest with the people they do work with.  All they are thinking is how they could earn money at your stake.  The way that an insurance broker makes money is very simple. Every time that one of their clients purchases a policy from an insurer in their network, they get paid a…

Have you hit your 76th birthday and your car insurance company just gave you a premium increase as your birthday present? Well, a premium increase is certainly not a gift, but it is something that you might as well expect when you’re already over the age of 75.

Most car insurers charge higher premiums for drivers over 75.  It is not that they are being discriminatory, but this is simply a measure that they need to take to sustain their company.  Car insurance premiums are based on statistical data and calculated using complex mathematical algorithms. Insurers compute the claims risk that people of different ages represent, and those over age 75…

Honesty is the best policy, and that same thing is true when it comes to dealing with a police officer when you get into an accident or if you get pulled over.  Dishonesty has its consequences.  Driving without car insurance policy has its consequences, too.  So if in the end you are most likely going to be caught lying, why not say the truth from the start and spare yourself from the heavier punishment ahead?
