Who Needs Umbrella Insurance?
In Southgate, CA and the surrounding area, many people volunteer in their community. Every week, concerned citizens help clean up parks, coach kids’ sports teams, volunteer at soup kitchens, etc. Those individuals need umbrella insurance to protect their finances. Umbrella insurance provides a secondary policy that you add to a primary liability policy. Whether you accidentally libel someone in a newspaper or online, or you cause an accident that injures people, your liability insurance covers it.
Most policies don’t offer large coverage amounts. They weren’t originally designed for that and adding an umbrella policy provides the excess coverage that certain individuals need but most people don’t. Typically, a million-dollar policy costs just a few dollars per month in premiums.
As you age, it becomes more important to carry this coverage. That’s because, without it, an accident you cause could wipe out your savings.
Let’s say you plan to retire at age 70. You have a nice nest egg built up of about $400,000. At age 60, you throw a party to celebrate your child’s graduation from medical school. At this party, a fire in the BBQ pit injures three guests. The medical bills cost upwards of $250,000 and your home policy covers just $50,000 of it. The other $200,000 comes out of your retirement. Now, you have ten years to make up that $200K before retiring.
An umbrella policy solves the problem. It could provide $1 million of coverage for a minuscule cost.
