    Insurance is basically a promise that you can buy. You give money to an insurance company, usually in the form of a monthly payment, and in return they promise that they will give you a certain amount of money if a specified unfortunate event befalls you.

    For instance, if you buy a car insurance policy, you pay a monthly payment (called a “premium”) to the insurance company, and they promise that they will pay to repair your car if it is damaged in an accident. For life insurance, you pay a premium for the promise that the insurance company will pay your family a certain amount of money if you die unexpectedly. With health insurance, you pay a premium for the promise that the insurance company will pay your medical bills.

    There are lots of different kind of insurance, but the basic idea is the same. You are buying the promise that the insurance company will provide for a financial need should that need arise.

    Insurance is for the protection of the unknown.

    *Life Insurance is to provide for loved ones if the breadwinner dies.
    *Health Insurance helps pay for covered medical treatments.
    *Disability Income Insurance provides an income, should the insured get hurt or sick and can’t work.
    *Dental Insurance helps pay for dental work, cleanings, etc.
    *Eye Care Insurance helps pay for eye exams and glasses.
    *Auto Insurance pays for damages to another person’s property, bodily injury, or to repair the insured’s vehicle, if Physical Damage coverage is on the policy. It also pays for medical payments for passengers.
    *Homeowner’s Insurance pays for covered losses from, wind, hail, falling objects, vandalism, malicious mischief, and other covered losses, including personal liability, and medical payments to others.
    *Umbrella Policy covers liability claims over and above the coverage on the insured’s auto and homeowner’s policy.
    *Commercial Insurance covers businesses losses.
    *Boat Insurance is for boats, and the liability thereof.
    *Recreational vehicle Insurance covers those types of vehicles and the liability on Motorized RV’s. A trailer’s liability is covered by the policy on the tow vehicle.
    *Unemployment Insurance paid by employers pays a temporary income for laid-off workers.
    *Worker’s Compensation Insurance paid for by the employer, pays for medical treatments of employees who are injured on the job, and temporary income if the injured employee is unable to work due to the injury.

    There are other coverages that I’m not going to explain at this point, and those are: Inland Marine, Commercial Auto, Errors and Ommissions, Professional Liability, Travel Insurance, Accident Insurance, Aircraft Insurance, and more.

    The main job of insurance is to indemnify the insured. That means to put the insured back in the same condition as the insured was in prior to the incident whether it be financially, or to repair or replace damaged property.

    Hope this helps.
