Insurance Essentials for Families: Home, Auto, Umbrella, Health, Disability, Life & Long-Term Care

In this episode we discuss the key insurance types every person should consider. We review property-related protections—auto, renters insurance, and the various elements of homeowners insurance. Brenton explains umbrella policies as inexpensive additional liability protection, and then cover personal insurances: the necessity of health insurance despite high marketplace costs, long-term disability as paycheck protection (including group-policy tax and income-definition gaps), life insurance needs often being underestimated and requiring calculators and appropriate term length, and long-term care insurance to protect assets and avoid Medicaid impoverishment.
