5 Best Insurance Buying Tips for You

 If you are a millennial, and you know this definition very well. You have reached the age where you can take out a loan, buy or rent a place to live, have children and, ultimately, buy insurance.

This major life event for millennials makes it very important to have a good financial security net especially insurance, the best financial security net today.

So, it's a shame to read a survey from Princeton Survey Research Associates International which mentions millennials as the least insured generation today.

There are many reasons why people of all generations avoid buying insurance. It's often seen as a big investment, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's expensive. In fact, insurance costs may be cheaper than you think.



For example, according to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), millennials overestimate the cost of insurance by more than five times the actual cost per year even though the price to pay is not that great.

In addition, complex terms can make policy search a confusing experience and the subject matter difficult to digest.

No one wants to think about getting into a car accident, getting damaged, losing everything in a house or apartment fire, or some other bad and unexpected event. But these things can happen, so you have to be prepared.

And don't let initial confusion or preconceptions put you off. After all, you are a millennial! Your generation is always facing new challenges and expanding the way the world works, often in brilliant ways.

Insurance provides important financial protection for your future, so now is the time to start "growing up" and take that first step.


5 tips for buying insurance for millennials

Here are five tips for buying insurance:

Smart shopping. When looking for insurance, priority , you must find adequate coverage. Price is important, but you should determine the type of protection you need first. Then you can fit that coverage into your budget and determine which carrier can provide you with the most comprehensive policy for your situation. You may be tempted to opt for insurance with the lowest price tag, but if you don't have enough coverage (or the right type of coverage), you will see less financial gain when it comes time to file a claim.


Look for discounts. Once you've evaluated your coverage needs, consider your budget and find ways to save. Ask your insurance agent if there is a discount for your coverage. Often, carriers offer discounts on things like paying your policy in full, staying free from car accidents or, if you're in school, getting good grades. You can also save money by "combining" multiple policies, such as buying a home and car policy from the same carrier.


Fill the gap. The average policy will cover the basics, but you may need to add extra protection to meet your unique needs. For example, you may have items like electronics or fine jewelry that are financially difficult to replace, even with the help of the average tenant or landlord's policy. You may want to add additional protection to these items.


Buy life insurance you are not too young. Life insurance is very important, no matter how young or old you are. And for millennials, buying now might be a smart move because it's cheaper to buy a life insurance policy when you're young and healthy. This type of insurance can help your family cover unexpected expenses in your absence, including student loan or mortgage debt, in addition to end-of-life expenses. And if you have children, a life insurance policy can also support their child's education or care costs. Additionally, every millennial should consider long-term disability coverage, which helps you stay financially afloat in the event of an accident and you become disabled and unable to work.


Talk to an independent agent. An independent insurance agent is an important resource when buying insurance — especially if this is your first time. Independent agents work with several different carriers, which differ from captive agents who can only sell insurance from the carrier they work for. Working with an independent agent can help ensure that you get the best protection, at the best price. you will also benefit from an independent agent's insurance knowledge; they know how to talk to you about your options and really explain what each policy includes. An independent agent will make sure all your assets are protected, help you find discounts or other ways to save, and be a valuable resource when your life changes and your insurance needs change too.
