Nippets of insurance news you can use:
Things your property insurance doesn't cover: In our last conversation about property insurance, we were surprised by the fact that your property insurance doesn't cover everything you might have thought it did. Many victims of Hurricane Katrina received a painful crash course in the subtleties of property insurance. Don't let that happen to you.
People are starting to go abroad to find affordable healthcare: This might surprise you, but there ACTUALLY ARE real doctors who exist outside the borders of the United States. I am being sarcastic here, but the truth is that the high cost of healthcare has led to many Americans going overseas to get the treatment they need.
Do you really need anything other than Term Life Insurance? Dave Ramsey, a financial expert with whom I do not always agree, argues that you don't need any Life Insurance other than term. The fundamental point he is making is that if you get Term Life (rather than Whole), you are going to save so much money that by the time your Term Life Insurance runs out, the invested proceeds will give you all the financial security you need.
What's the difference between Term and Whole Life Insurance anyway? The statement made above about Dave Ramsey's conclusions makes no sense if you don't take a second to read on the difference between Term and Whole Life Insurance. Take a look at this 2 minute article to understand how they differ.

I hope you will take a moment to look over important disaster information for your community.
One of the most important factors in disaster preparedness/recovery is to be informed:
Laissez-faire Not Fair
----
When the dust settles, who will carry the mantle for disaster survivors?
This should help understanding:
What do you expect in case of an insured loss? Are You Disaster Ready? (hurricane, tornado, earthquake, flood, fire, etc.). US President Obama affirms government's laissez-faire policy with his telling response.
I do believe President Obama has good intentions when it comes to disaster preparedness/recovery, but the insurance lobby may simply be too powerful for basic information to reach the public. That is my conclusion after writing him and ensuing dialogue at http://www.disasterprepared.net/whitehouse.html ...i do hope you have the time to examine that dialogue, it is revealing.
Perhaps what big government cannot accomplish, citizens can: make basic insurance rights and information available to their community and more importantly to disaster survivors in their time of need: http://www.disasterprepared.net/preparedness.html
Thank you for any consideration you may give.
