It is important to maintain the status of "fully insured." A
catastrophic car accident, home accident, or illness can completely
eliminate all gains in emergency accounts, investments, and
home equity. Because of this possibility it is prudent to maintain
adequate levels of mortgage insurance, car insurance, and health
insurance.
If you are self-employed there are several insurance plans
associated with your business status. Among those insurance
plans you should include, but not limit yourself to are;
property liability insurance, workman's compensation for
employees, health insurance for you and your employees, and
disability for yourself. Verify required insurance plans
with your attorney, property owner and business consultant.
Consider life insurance if you have dependents, there are
many affordable plans available.
There is a little known insurance called umbrella coverage.
It is umbrella coverage over all your other policies. These
policies are especially good for self-employed and high asset
individuals. Insurance agents do not heavily market these
policies, probably because the premiums are low and the limits
are high. The umbrella is one policy, which usually provides
extra coverage over your home, car, and business.
When you purchase insurance don't consider cost only, but
also consider quality of coverage and cancellation policy.
Some insurance premiums are low because the quality of coverage
is low and the cancellation policy is very liberal. Do your
homework diligently when considering insurance coverage.
