 Uncertainty... Something that Nobody can Predict or Guarantee
Spring 2010 > Issue 74
I hate uncertainty! I am not sure where they even came up with such a dumb word, yet it is everywhere. In the insurance business, it is a time bomb waiting to explode. Take a really simple insurance application, for instance; only three or four simple questions, your credit card number, and you normally would assume that you are covered.

 Sometimes, You Should Refuse to Wait
Fall 2009 > Issue 72
There is not much that is more frustrating than waiting in a doctor’s office to have your appointment…you know, your appointment that was booked for half an hour ago or perhaps even an hour ago, or longer.

Winter 2008 > Issue 69
As related by Paul Burdette, Lifetime CSA Member Last year, my wife and I went away as usual to Florida for the winter. When I purchased our insurance, I disclosed that I had bone cancer and of course, was told that I would not be covered for the pre-existing condition, which I was comfortable with. Around the middle of February, I started having double vision.  Read more

Summer  > Issue 67
