RE: Navigating the maze of senior insurance options
That’s the perfect analogy. I swear, dealing with insurance is the only thing more confusing than figuring out which button actually turns on the heated seats in my new car. You’d think with all the money flowing through...
RE: Why I was surprised to learn Nebraska requires uninsured motorist coverage
Honestly, I get why people want that extra peace of mind, but I’ve always wondered if it’s really worth the premium - especially when you drive something high-end. I had a friend with a luxury coupe who got hit by an uni...
RE: is accident forgiveness really worth it in Ohio?

RE: Why does insurance cost more in Houston than Austin or Dallas?
Honestly, I’ve wondered the same thing every time my renewal comes up. I drive a pretty high-end car (which, yeah, I know doesn’t help my rates), but it’s locked up tighter than a bank vault at night and still… Houston p...
RE: quick heads-up on Arkansas auto insurance basics
Honestly, I’ve always thought “full coverage” was a marketing trick - like, it sounds bulletproof but there’s always a catch. I learned the hard way after a tree limb dented my hood and my policy didn’t help at all. You’...
