Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

High of 44 today, maybe I'll paint something too

Ooo, nope maybe not. Sustained winds of 30mph with gusts above 60mph

 

Hold up just a second....you contacted yer insurance company so you could....give them more money?
I thought I raised you better than that.

 

Well Bob, in case of total loss I really want to be covered for everything.

 

If they cover everything you wont get to enjoy the total loss part.

 

It is always a good idea to keep it covered whenever there is a risk.

I'd rather not pull any money from my investments to restore everything back to as normal as I could have been

 

Im just messing with you; I'm a minimalist when it comes to insurance, but I'm also an idiot so there's that to consider.

 

Oh I know. It was an extra $100 a year for an additional $60,000 in coverage so not out of this world. I could cover that out of pocket, but I'd rather not

 

I'm always searching for ways to lower my premiums.
In 30+ years of marriage we've switched insurance companies 7-8 times because cheap.

 

Damn, Sam!

You have some deep pockets.

If that 60,000 was in pennies I could cover it out of pocket.

 

I've looked into switching before, but my current carrier has always been cost effective for the coverage. Guess it depends on location

 

$50 at a time man, $50 at a time

 

Search for independent agents, they can shop around multiple companies for you.
My current insurance, this is my third time with them.

Rates go up, I leave. New place; rates go up, I leave. Back to old place; rates go up......

Obviously rates will always go up, but I tend to get kinda pissy when vehicle rates jump up quite a bit yet the value of my vehicles are steadily declining.
A house...I kinda understand that. But not a car.

 

Starting to feel like Seattle or something... 5 days in a row of heavy fog

 

Sooo, I re-read this. Not totally "out of pockets" but it would take away some investments, but wouldn't leave me totally hung to dry. I don't have that much "cash" but keep investments for the future.

 

Here, too.



A bit of freezing rain made for an interesting drive into work.

 

Tried shoppin’ for Marriage Insurance a while back. Ain’t nobody gonna underwrite that.

Mornin’ Gents.
‘25 warmin’ up in the bullpen

 

Good afternoon friends! Hope Monday is good to you all


Been running around all morning, finally made it home with new air filter, cabin filter, battery, etc.

Things got nutty when I removed the air filter.




The cabin filter, may be original. It’s slam packed and VW.




This photo doesn’t do the “slam packed” justice. A lot of the debris fell in the floorboard since this one goes in vertically.
