Letting My Fingers Save Me Money

Well it is time to pay my auto insurance. And I am really happy with who I have. But I received a letter in the mail telling me it was time for me to renew. I was baffled as I felt it was not that long ago that I changed companies. Well, it is not time to renew at all. Just another company trying to get me to change over is all.

How did I find my current company? Well I was looking for cheap auto insurance quotes. So I went online and was looking for places to get quotes at. I was able to find many quotes online and able to compare the different companies. This way I was able to find the lowest quote for the features I needed to have. It sure did save me a good chunk of money.

I found this quite helpful. And I felt so much better doing the research myself. It was not hard to do, just took a little bit of time to do the searches. So instead of waiting for your company to "drop" rates, start looking around yourself. And don't fall into the traps that can come through the mail. I almost did!

I Am Not Bailing Out AIG

The economy is getting tougher and tougher for everyone. I am not immune to this. And I am having to shop for a new car insurance. You see I have AIG. Well they have changed their name to 21st Century Insurance. And of course, my rates have increased. So as always I am off on the world wide web to find the best deal.

We are insuring a van for my mother, a 1980's mustang for CG and my inherited Dodge. I found Autonet Van Insurance and was pretty excited. It claims to have unbeatable van insurance quotes. Well I need that for sure. So I popped on over. Well I then saw they had car insurance, home owners and wow all kinds. Pet insurance (I never knew), travel insurance, courier insurance (hummm), even business and caravan insurances. Well they seem to be able to cover all kinds of needs. Top it off with up to 70% off of van insurance. I am more than ready to get a quote. Click the magic button.

Ding, Ding! Nope not for all my savings. But for me not looking well enough. I would love to tell you of all my savings. Sad to say I do not live in the UK. So nix that for me. If you do live there then check them out and see what you save. (Let me know!)

Taxes are Due

1st I would like to ask you to visit my
100 item give away blog
and these other give aways too!
Thank you.

My brother contacted me today about my dad's taxes for 2008. I am not sure you would remember but I lost my dad in February. His taxes are now our responsibility. I am not sure how I am going to pay for them. My brother inherited his house but had to let it go. He did not have the means to pay for the mortgage. And in this market was not able to sell it in time to save the house. So there is not an income from that to help with the taxes.

You see my dad did not have mortgage insurance on his home. Nor did he have life insurance. If he had used a company like NAA Life, we would not be in this situation. I started looking up information online for DH and I. You see I too need to get this insurance to protect my own CG. So I started checking out what was available. That is how I found NAA Life. I did not even know we could have mortgage insurance before reading on this site. Our home is purchased on a for sale by owner program. So I do not have a mortgage company that could have told me about this. I have found how important it is to take care of my CG in all circumstances. For this is my responsibility and would be my reassurance too.

I also need to get life insurance for me. DH has this through work. But as a SAHM on disability I do not have that option. So it is time for me to look at what I can do. I do not want CG to one day be in my shoes. Having inherited a house only to loose it. Or to have to pay for my debts due to me not taking care to provide. This sure would give me peace of mind. I hope to leave her "a piece of paper" that is really an investment for me and her.

Do you have any insurance? On your home? Life? Who would you want to protect?
