Switching Auto Coverage Mid Term: Things Drivers Should be Aware of

Wednesday, 02 December 2009 21:09 Felicia A. Williams Money Matters - Insurance

If you find that you're either totally disgusted with your current insurance auto insurance company or that you've found a great deal with another company, it is possible to switch your coverage midterms. You don't have to wait for the policy renewal to transfer your auto insurance from one company to another.

Keep in mind however that although you don't have to wait till the end of the policy or to switch, a midterm cancellation and rewrite means that you have to be a little more on top of things than you normally will if you were to wait until policy renewal. Here are a few things to consider if you are thinking of switching auto insurance policy mid term.

Should I Buy Pet Health Insurance?

Insurance for a pet? You're joking right? ... No, I'm not. We love our pets and want to keep them healthy. Keeping them healthy costs money. Let's face it, they need to be spayed/neutered, they need to have vaccinations, sometimes they eat things they shouldn't and require medical attention. They also get human type ailments such as pink eye and cancer. Why shouldn't we buy pet health insurance for our pets? It only makes sense.

Did you know that as much as 50% of older dogs develop cancer? According to Texas A & M University, College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, "compared to humans, dogs are...
35 times more likely to develop skin cancer
4 times as likely to develop breast tumor
8 times likely to suffer from bone cancer
2 times as likely to develop leukemia…"

These are alarming numbers. The cost of cancer treatment is astronomical. It seems reasonable that we want to protect our animals and protect our pockets at the same time.
