Insurance isn’t always the most exciting topic for discussion. In fact, it usually means we are bringing up the things nobody wants to think about.

After helping hundreds of business owners with their personal and business finances over the years, I’ve learned a few things. One of the most interesting things I’ve learned is that people rarely review their homeowner’s insurance policy once they purchase it. However, property values tend to rise.

If you drive a car, you must have auto insurance. In fact, it’s illegal not to have car insurance and if you happen to be in an accident, not only will you be fined, but you could be sued.
