00:00:00,754 --> 00:00:03,774
Hey, everybody. I'm Robert Y, and I'm an

2
00:00:03,774 --> 00:00:05,625
insurance professional, and admittedly

3
00:00:06,078 --> 00:00:07,111
kind of an insurance nerd.

4
00:00:07,924 --> 00:00:10,241
My friends and family tell me that nobody

5
00:00:10,241 --> 00:00:12,080
is gonna wanna listen to a podcast about

6
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,877
insurance. So instead, on this show, I'm hoping

7
00:00:14,877 --> 00:00:18,087
to share a story or have a conversation

8
00:00:18,087 --> 00:00:21,280
with a guest about some relatable experience, and

9
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,554
then show you how insurance impacts that story

10
00:00:24,554 --> 00:00:25,033
or topic.

11
00:00:25,672 --> 00:00:26,651
My hope is

12
00:00:26,963 --> 00:00:28,792
You'll enjoy a few laughs with me and

13
00:00:28,792 --> 00:00:31,815
maybe learn at least 1 interesting thing about

14
00:00:31,815 --> 00:00:32,770
insurance along the way.

15
00:00:33,978 --> 00:00:34,455
Here we go.

16
00:00:39,463 --> 00:00:41,689
Alright. Hey, everybody. Thanks for listening in the

17
00:00:41,689 --> 00:00:43,063

Ohio.

21
00:00:49,448 --> 00:00:51,206
I've been I've been spending the last several

22
00:00:51,206 --> 00:00:52,105

and then my sisters. I have twin sisters.

33
00:01:08,864 --> 00:01:10,539
They brought their families out. So was a

34
00:01:10,539 --> 00:01:11,496
huge, huge group.

35
00:01:12,149 --> 00:01:14,704
I think 18 or 19 people. Yeah. I

36
00:01:14,704 --> 00:01:16,380
don't work together. Forget the little man.

37
00:01:17,498 --> 00:01:19,973
Grandson here. My grandson was here. That voice

38
00:01:19,973 --> 00:01:21,904
you just heard. That's Jake. He's he's gonna

39
00:01:21,904 --> 00:01:24,141
be my guest on the podcast today. It's

40
00:01:24,141 --> 00:01:26,059
good to be here. Yeah. It is good

41
00:01:26,059 --> 00:01:27,358
to be here. This is

42
00:01:28,137 --> 00:01:31,022
last day of the family trip. And people

43
00:01:31,022 --> 00:01:32,133
have been filtering out,

44
00:01:33,481 --> 00:01:35,464
and were some of the last ones standing.

45
00:01:35,782 --> 00:01:37,051
Best to the best. Yeah.

46
00:01:38,891 --> 00:01:40,003
So we've been doing stuff like,

47
00:01:40,717 --> 00:01:42,226
well, we we we got this enormous home,

48
00:01:42,385 --> 00:01:45,562
so there's, like a pool and hot to...

49
00:01:46,277 --> 00:01:47,230
What's been your favorite part.

50
00:01:48,598 --> 00:01:50,274
Lounge at the pool, it's hard to beat.

51
00:01:50,833 --> 00:01:51,551
Yeah. Yeah.

52
00:01:52,429 --> 00:01:54,264
And it was hot. These few days. It

53
00:01:54,264 --> 00:01:56,121
was... Well the first couple of days were

54
00:01:56,593 --> 00:01:58,666
probably the best weather could have asked for.

55
00:01:59,783 --> 00:02:01,138
Because it just... It gets just cool enough

56
00:02:01,138 --> 00:02:02,574
for the hot tub in the evening, and

57
00:02:02,574 --> 00:02:04,408
it's warm enough for the pool early in

58
00:02:04,408 --> 00:02:04,966
the afternoon.

59
00:02:05,777 --> 00:02:07,284
There's enough people to play all the little

60
00:02:07,284 --> 00:02:08,713
games. You guys wanted to play.

61
00:02:09,189 --> 00:02:11,411
Yeah. Yeah. Good times. Good times and we're

62
00:02:11,411 --> 00:02:13,633
all talking Like. We wanna do that again.

63
00:02:14,683 --> 00:02:15,161
Also,

64
00:02:16,198 --> 00:02:16,596
Ohio,

65
00:02:17,155 --> 00:02:17,952
everybody's been asked me like?

66
00:02:18,749 --> 00:02:20,264
Who's from Ohio? Is that where you're from?

67
00:02:20,504 --> 00:02:22,338
What... How'd did you get Ohio? And it...

68
00:02:22,497 --> 00:02:24,664
All it is is just it's a convenient

69
00:02:24,664 --> 00:02:26,416
meeting place where we found a house big

70
00:02:26,416 --> 00:02:27,690
enough for everybody. Yeah.

71
00:02:28,486 --> 00:02:29,522
Now I had to fly.

72
00:02:30,318 --> 00:02:32,284
Your brother brandon had to fly. Yep

73
00:02:32,722 --> 00:02:33,677
everybody else drove.

74
00:02:35,029 --> 00:02:36,540
Well, so I was thinking,

75
00:02:37,415 --> 00:02:39,998
I rented a car. Mh. And

76
00:02:40,609 --> 00:02:42,514
brandon rented at a car when we pick,

77
00:02:42,673 --> 00:02:44,419
you know, when we got in at the

78
00:02:44,419 --> 00:02:46,880
airport. And somebody... I don't remember who but

79
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,015
somebody asked me

80
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:49,591
Did you get the insurance?

81
00:02:51,176 --> 00:02:52,760
And I I said, no, I did not

82
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:53,394
get the insurance.

83
00:02:54,028 --> 00:02:55,162
But there was

84
00:02:55,629 --> 00:02:56,847
sort of a, a

85
00:02:57,305 --> 00:02:59,061
conversation at the rental car desk with the

86
00:02:59,061 --> 00:03:01,535
gal who is checking me, like, out? Yeah.

87
00:03:01,934 --> 00:03:02,812
We always bring it up.

88
00:03:04,344 --> 00:03:06,425
They usually bring it up. Some people are

89
00:03:06,425 --> 00:03:07,864
better at bringing it up than others.

90
00:03:08,824 --> 00:03:10,745
Now I feel like you used to rent

91
00:03:10,745 --> 00:03:12,344
cars because you didn't have a car when

92
00:03:12,344 --> 00:03:14,354
you lived in the city. Every week. Yeah.

93
00:03:14,672 --> 00:03:16,581
Is I was traveling for work. That's Killing

94
00:03:16,581 --> 00:03:16,740
zoo?

95
00:03:17,456 --> 00:03:18,012
Yeah. Yeah.

96
00:03:18,808 --> 00:03:20,717
So you heard the pitch every week. Every

97
00:03:20,717 --> 00:03:23,201
time. Yeah. Well, I so I went to

98
00:03:23,201 --> 00:03:24,658
the same enterprise

99
00:03:25,035 --> 00:03:27,928
every week for 2 years. So I think

100
00:03:28,305 --> 00:03:29,741
they they recognize recognized me. They got to

101
00:03:29,741 --> 00:03:31,416
know me and eventually, they're like, okay, this

102
00:03:31,416 --> 00:03:31,655
guy.

103
00:03:32,861 --> 00:03:35,080
Declined it. Yeah. 40 times in a row.

104
00:03:36,665 --> 00:03:38,250
Yeah. So I think they... I think eventually

105
00:03:38,250 --> 00:03:39,122
they stopped asking.

106
00:03:39,614 --> 00:03:40,810
Well, the cool thing about going to the

107
00:03:40,810 --> 00:03:43,442
same place every week also is, like, they

108
00:03:43,442 --> 00:03:46,154
probably threw you upgrading Oh, yeah. Driving cool

109
00:03:46,154 --> 00:03:47,909
cars. Okay. Qualify yeah. What's the coolest car

110
00:03:47,909 --> 00:03:49,185
you remember were getting? What we were talking

111
00:03:49,185 --> 00:03:49,997
and So

112
00:03:50,793 --> 00:03:52,146
we're all here in Mansfield. We did this,

113
00:03:52,225 --> 00:03:55,887
like, evening round table of questions. Yeah. And

114
00:03:55,887 --> 00:03:56,922
1 of the questions was, like,

115
00:03:57,574 --> 00:03:59,725
cars are really into. And it was that

116
00:03:59,725 --> 00:04:01,558
cadillac that I brought up last night. Oh,

117
00:04:01,798 --> 00:04:03,391
yeah. That was 1 of 1 of my

118
00:04:03,391 --> 00:04:04,826
favorites that they upgraded me too.

119
00:04:06,033 --> 00:04:07,541
Nice. And, hopefully,

120
00:04:08,255 --> 00:04:10,660
no upper management or listeners of this podcast

121
00:04:10,874 --> 00:04:13,274
because they couldn't give me some of the

122
00:04:13,274 --> 00:04:14,553
cars they gave me because That I was

123
00:04:14,553 --> 00:04:15,272
under 25.

124
00:04:16,471 --> 00:04:18,389
Oh, but they did anyone did.

125
00:04:19,108 --> 00:04:19,667
They did.

126
00:04:21,346 --> 00:04:23,753
Yeah. Yeah. Maybe those people are long gone

127
00:04:23,753 --> 00:04:25,344
from the enterprise. So it might be the

128
00:04:25,344 --> 00:04:25,583
clear.

129
00:04:27,254 --> 00:04:28,766
Well, I I thought the whole thing with

130
00:04:28,766 --> 00:04:31,415
enterprise was like, they got college grads

131
00:04:32,203 --> 00:04:33,499
to be, like, managers.

132
00:04:34,590 --> 00:04:35,625
So that they could just kinda...

133
00:04:36,818 --> 00:04:38,489
They're probably cool guys. They're like, they were.

134
00:04:38,807 --> 00:04:40,080
They were. And like you said, they recognize

135
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:41,057
recognized me So

136
00:04:41,449 --> 00:04:43,207
everyone once in a while. If they had

137
00:04:43,207 --> 00:04:46,003
something. It was a small enterprise, like, neighborhood

138
00:04:46,083 --> 00:04:48,560
City enterprise. So they didn't always have something.

139
00:04:49,293 --> 00:04:50,563
It runs well. Yeah. They give me, like,

140
00:04:50,642 --> 00:04:52,967
a say convertible or cadillac,

141
00:04:53,420 --> 00:04:53,920
bmw.

142
00:04:55,007 --> 00:04:56,911
And those, like I was saying, I can

143
00:04:56,911 --> 00:04:57,308
book those.

144
00:04:58,039 --> 00:05:00,037
Because I was under 25. Yeah. Yeah.

145
00:05:01,076 --> 00:05:01,576
So

146
00:05:02,994 --> 00:05:03,474
good stuff.

147
00:05:04,193 --> 00:05:07,171
Okay. I remember we went to North Carolina

148
00:05:07,883 --> 00:05:09,394
was just you and I. It was like,

149
00:05:09,553 --> 00:05:12,415
to scout out colleges when you were Yeah

150
00:05:12,415 --> 00:05:14,403
16 or 17. Yeah. And do you remember,

151
00:05:14,562 --> 00:05:17,281
they they gave us AAA challenger. Yeah. That's

152
00:05:17,281 --> 00:05:19,690
cool. Yeah. That was very cool. And

153
00:05:20,145 --> 00:05:21,815
it's too bad because I remember being very

154
00:05:21,815 --> 00:05:22,213
rainy.

155
00:05:23,103 --> 00:05:25,487
Couldn't really just, like, open it up, because

156
00:05:25,646 --> 00:05:27,394
I I wasn't familiar at the car. I

157
00:05:27,394 --> 00:05:29,222
didn't know how it was gonna handle and

158
00:05:29,222 --> 00:05:31,050
didn't... I I didn't know the tires.

159
00:05:32,259 --> 00:05:33,779
So I was very careful with it, but

160
00:05:33,779 --> 00:05:35,060
it was a cool car. It was cool.

161
00:05:35,300 --> 00:05:36,819
I I don't know if you let me

162
00:05:36,819 --> 00:05:38,740
drive, but you did take a picture.

163
00:05:39,473 --> 00:05:41,389
In fancy. Yes. I did not let you

164
00:05:41,389 --> 00:05:41,889
drive.

165
00:05:43,464 --> 00:05:44,421
Probably the right call there.

166
00:05:45,459 --> 00:05:47,076
Yeah. Well, so this gal

167
00:05:47,866 --> 00:05:49,296
where I picked up the car this time.

168
00:05:50,408 --> 00:05:50,806
She...

169
00:05:51,441 --> 00:05:52,633
And I guess, I won't say the name

170
00:05:52,633 --> 00:05:54,381
of the the agency because that doesn't really

171
00:05:54,381 --> 00:05:55,811
matter It's not really important to the story.

172
00:05:56,383 --> 00:05:57,520
But she

173
00:05:57,975 --> 00:06:00,203
asked me sort of towards the end of

174
00:06:00,203 --> 00:06:01,078
the transaction.

175
00:06:01,874 --> 00:06:03,864
So how will you be ensuring... No. No

176
00:06:04,023 --> 00:06:05,217
Excuse me. That's not How she did it.

177
00:06:05,869 --> 00:06:08,283
She said, would you like our,

178
00:06:08,661 --> 00:06:12,010
like, superior coverage or, you know, whatever like,

179
00:06:12,170 --> 00:06:14,323
the the medium coverage was? Mh.

180
00:06:15,774 --> 00:06:16,333
And I said,

181
00:06:17,051 --> 00:06:18,966
actually, I... I'm just gonna decline all the

182
00:06:18,966 --> 00:06:21,440
coverage is? And her comeback was, how are

183
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,435
you going to ensure this vehicle? Yeah.

184
00:06:24,087 --> 00:06:26,226
I said, well, I'm gonna rely on my

185
00:06:26,226 --> 00:06:26,726
primary

186
00:06:27,098 --> 00:06:28,286
auto insurance policy.

187
00:06:29,078 --> 00:06:30,504
Alright? My personal auto policy.

188
00:06:31,634 --> 00:06:32,134
And

189
00:06:32,513 --> 00:06:33,013
second,

190
00:06:33,471 --> 00:06:35,549
I have coverage on this credit card that

191
00:06:35,549 --> 00:06:37,786
was, like in the little machine processing in

192
00:06:37,786 --> 00:06:40,754
that moment. Yeah. And she goes, oh, well,

193
00:06:40,993 --> 00:06:41,790
just so you know,

194
00:06:42,429 --> 00:06:44,821
Michigan is a no fault insurance state, and

195
00:06:44,821 --> 00:06:47,852
you're going to be responsible for any damage

196
00:06:47,852 --> 00:06:48,570
to this vehicle.

197
00:06:50,180 --> 00:06:52,652
And and and I... We... I rented it

198
00:06:52,652 --> 00:06:54,327
in Michigan. Just by the way. Okay. So

199
00:06:54,327 --> 00:06:56,262
we're in Ohio now, but I rented it

200
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:57,756
Detroit Airport. Yeah.

201
00:06:58,729 --> 00:06:59,229
So

202
00:06:59,608 --> 00:07:02,665
her inserting this idea that

203
00:07:03,124 --> 00:07:05,362
Michigan is a no fault insurance state, which

204
00:07:05,362 --> 00:07:07,254
it is if you're buying your own per

205
00:07:07,454 --> 00:07:08,971
auto policy. Yeah. That's a thing.

206
00:07:10,248 --> 00:07:11,466
But that would be true

207
00:07:11,844 --> 00:07:12,243
regardless.

208
00:07:12,961 --> 00:07:15,116
Any damage to that rental car is my

209
00:07:15,116 --> 00:07:15,595
responsibility.

210
00:07:16,089 --> 00:07:17,925
In in any state that I'm in. So

211
00:07:17,925 --> 00:07:20,240
she's she was just kinda throwing in, like,

212
00:07:20,399 --> 00:07:20,899
this

213
00:07:21,277 --> 00:07:24,390
insurance term that I felt like was designed

214
00:07:24,390 --> 00:07:26,795
to make me question my choice. Yeah. I

215
00:07:26,795 --> 00:07:29,503
get you anxious. Yeah. Yeah. Right. You think

216
00:07:29,503 --> 00:07:31,813
that's in the script or... Yeah. I think

217
00:07:31,813 --> 00:07:33,979
that she's coached to do that. Yeah. And

218
00:07:33,979 --> 00:07:35,976
then I wanted to respond with?

219
00:07:36,775 --> 00:07:39,332
Oh, are you a licensed insurance agent?

220
00:07:41,663 --> 00:07:44,216
Really? Like, qualified to talk to me and

221
00:07:44,216 --> 00:07:46,529
counsel me Yeah. On how I'm going to

222
00:07:46,529 --> 00:07:49,501
ensure this vehicle. Yeah. Because my guess is

223
00:07:49,559 --> 00:07:51,888
she's not licensed. I I don't know for

224
00:07:51,888 --> 00:07:53,723
sure. Yeah. I don't know for sure.

225
00:07:54,441 --> 00:07:55,638
But I'm betting she's not.

226
00:07:56,676 --> 00:07:57,176
And

227
00:07:58,032 --> 00:07:59,964
or or some states have, like a, like,

228
00:08:00,045 --> 00:08:01,264
a limited lines

229
00:08:01,725 --> 00:08:03,884
kind of license where they they know their

230
00:08:03,884 --> 00:08:04,865
very narrow

231
00:08:05,485 --> 00:08:06,925
type of, you know, coverage.

232
00:08:07,900 --> 00:08:10,779
And they don't necessarily know like, broader insurance

233
00:08:10,779 --> 00:08:13,040
concepts and they in my

234
00:08:13,340 --> 00:08:15,199
experience, they just start talking

235
00:08:15,580 --> 00:08:17,585
about you know, whatever they've been coached by

236
00:08:17,585 --> 00:08:19,016
their manager to talk about.

237
00:08:19,731 --> 00:08:21,400
And if you ask them a tough question,

238
00:08:22,275 --> 00:08:24,103
you know, they get rattled and they back

239
00:08:24,103 --> 00:08:24,580
off. Okay.

240
00:08:25,949 --> 00:08:26,109
Anyway,

241
00:08:27,626 --> 00:08:28,825
it did get me to thinking, and I

242
00:08:28,825 --> 00:08:30,423
didn't get the insurance as I said, it

243
00:08:30,423 --> 00:08:31,860
it got me to thinking about it.

244
00:08:32,912 --> 00:08:34,761
Really wherever I go

245
00:08:35,134 --> 00:08:36,325
within the United States,

246
00:08:37,119 --> 00:08:38,650
I am totally comfortable

247
00:08:39,500 --> 00:08:42,294
that my personal auto policy is going to

248
00:08:42,294 --> 00:08:44,281
protect me and that vehicle that I'm in.

249
00:08:45,473 --> 00:08:48,517
And I also have used the credit card

250
00:08:49,304 --> 00:08:51,455
as as coverage. I've rented a lot of

251
00:08:51,455 --> 00:08:53,048
cars and I've been in accidents and I've...

252
00:08:53,287 --> 00:08:54,801
I've had to use that too. And that

253
00:08:54,801 --> 00:08:57,430
worked out fine. So you specifically called out

254
00:08:57,430 --> 00:08:58,227
in the Us.

255
00:08:59,038 --> 00:09:01,105
And I am taking Damon to Germany at

256
00:09:01,105 --> 00:09:02,933
year, I've thought about in in the car.

257
00:09:03,251 --> 00:09:05,079
So you're thinking it's... It would be worth

258
00:09:05,079 --> 00:09:05,579
it

259
00:09:05,954 --> 00:09:07,305
outside of the outside the states.

260
00:09:08,593 --> 00:09:09,150
Okay. So,

261
00:09:10,265 --> 00:09:13,371
I don't know. Mh. If my personal auto

262
00:09:13,371 --> 00:09:14,747
policy is gonna cover me

263
00:09:15,202 --> 00:09:15,441
internationally.

264
00:09:16,078 --> 00:09:18,086
I'd have to ask my insurance agent.

265
00:09:19,282 --> 00:09:21,595
I would be inclined to think it doesn't.

266
00:09:22,792 --> 00:09:24,945
But but I haven't read the policy for

267
00:09:24,945 --> 00:09:25,924
that particular

268
00:09:26,301 --> 00:09:26,381
provision.

269
00:09:27,910 --> 00:09:29,606
I do know that

270
00:09:30,301 --> 00:09:31,996
my credit card coverage

271
00:09:32,452 --> 00:09:32,952
offers

272
00:09:33,328 --> 00:09:34,147
some coverage

273
00:09:34,683 --> 00:09:35,002
internationally,

274
00:09:35,958 --> 00:09:36,458
but

275
00:09:37,406 --> 00:09:40,270
there are some stipulation there. And again, because

276
00:09:40,429 --> 00:09:42,657
I've not rented a car internationally. I haven't

277
00:09:42,657 --> 00:09:44,979
paid much attention to it. And if you're

278
00:09:44,979 --> 00:09:46,570
going to do that, you'll wanna pay attention

279
00:09:46,570 --> 00:09:47,206
to it. Mh.

280
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:49,750
Of course, if you don't have coverage on

281
00:09:49,750 --> 00:09:52,136
a credit card or a personal auto policy,

282
00:09:52,789 --> 00:09:54,784
then, yeah. You can just buy the coverage.

283
00:09:54,943 --> 00:09:56,620
Yeah. That's available there. But that would be

284
00:09:56,620 --> 00:09:58,535
fascinating to me to know what kind of

285
00:09:58,535 --> 00:10:00,530
coverage they offer. I'm sure I'm sure what?

286
00:10:01,024 --> 00:10:03,184
Because it's it's not it's not gonna be

287
00:10:03,184 --> 00:10:04,625
the same as here. I'll, I'll send it

288
00:10:04,625 --> 00:10:07,345
over to you. Yeah. So there's probably, like,

289
00:10:07,745 --> 00:10:09,684
websites that have advice

290
00:10:10,878 --> 00:10:11,997
I don't know if it's good advice, but

291
00:10:11,997 --> 00:10:13,994
they're... There's probably websites out there that'll talk

292
00:10:13,994 --> 00:10:14,314
about,

293
00:10:15,432 --> 00:10:16,551
international coverage for the vehicle.

294
00:10:17,524 --> 00:10:19,516
But, yeah, definitely wanna plan in advance for

295
00:10:19,516 --> 00:10:21,508
that. Who knows what, like, you know, the

296
00:10:21,508 --> 00:10:23,204
the liability issues are,

297
00:10:23,580 --> 00:10:24,616
you know, in Germany,

298
00:10:25,506 --> 00:10:28,529
Well, and you know, we talked about rental

299
00:10:28,529 --> 00:10:30,677
car policies before. And he told me about

300
00:10:30,677 --> 00:10:31,416
all these

301
00:10:32,124 --> 00:10:33,712
exclusions where, you know, you take it on,

302
00:10:33,791 --> 00:10:35,141
like, a gravel road and all of a

303
00:10:35,141 --> 00:10:37,523
sudden you're not covered. So Germany, right? They

304
00:10:37,523 --> 00:10:39,905
got the Auto. I wonder and in that

305
00:10:39,905 --> 00:10:42,145
policy. They're like, is you turn on that

306
00:10:42,145 --> 00:10:43,259
auto bond. As soon as you get on

307
00:10:43,259 --> 00:10:46,442
that, You're not covered. Yeah. Wonder. Yeah. I

308
00:10:46,442 --> 00:10:48,351
mean, there there could be all sorts of

309
00:10:48,351 --> 00:10:50,475
little exclusions that... I mean, I

310
00:10:51,388 --> 00:10:53,296
I can't even think of. I can't even

311
00:10:53,296 --> 00:10:54,885
dream up at this point. Yeah. Well, there

312
00:10:54,885 --> 00:10:56,554
you go. That's... I feel like that's our

313
00:10:56,554 --> 00:10:58,461
1 interesting thing about insurance. We don't know

314
00:10:58,461 --> 00:10:58,858
the answer.

315
00:10:59,668 --> 00:11:01,177
Yeah. We don't know the answer. And not

316
00:11:01,177 --> 00:11:01,336
yet.

317
00:11:02,210 --> 00:11:03,743
We'll have to have a follow up after

318
00:11:04,037 --> 00:11:05,546
after your you're trip to Germany. Yeah. I

319
00:11:05,546 --> 00:11:08,326
just kinda dissect the the rental car coverage.

320
00:11:09,614 --> 00:11:10,890
Worry though. I'm not taking damon I'm the

321
00:11:10,890 --> 00:11:11,369
auto dime.

322
00:11:12,885 --> 00:11:15,119
Oh, well, why wouldn't you? I mean, don't

323
00:11:15,119 --> 00:11:16,657
let him drive it, but

324
00:11:17,686 --> 00:11:19,200
But isn't that a thing that you'd maybe

325
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,191
wanna see Germany? Actually, I don't even really

326
00:11:21,191 --> 00:11:22,306
know where in Germany that is.

327
00:11:23,978 --> 00:11:25,945
I I don't know enough about it to

328
00:11:26,144 --> 00:11:27,183
speak intelligently at all.

329
00:11:28,062 --> 00:11:28,301
Yeah.

330
00:11:29,020 --> 00:11:30,538
Shit. That might be cool. If there's so

331
00:11:30,538 --> 00:11:31,896
many sites already on the list though.

332
00:11:33,267 --> 00:11:35,091
Well, if you have... If you're going from

333
00:11:35,091 --> 00:11:36,837
city to City, and, I don't know. They're

334
00:11:36,837 --> 00:11:39,533
connected by that highway. Yeah. That might be

335
00:11:39,533 --> 00:11:40,168
something. Yeah.

336
00:11:41,453 --> 00:11:43,521
I wonder... I mean... I I imagine they

337
00:11:43,521 --> 00:11:45,510
have lyft and Uber there. Yeah. If you

338
00:11:45,510 --> 00:11:47,180
were to just get in an Uber,

339
00:11:48,389 --> 00:11:49,987
be, like, he's just taking me on all

340
00:11:49,987 --> 00:11:52,064
of Just get We're gonna take the auto

341
00:11:52,064 --> 00:11:53,662
bond of Munich or or whatever.

342
00:11:54,540 --> 00:11:55,040
And

343
00:11:55,910 --> 00:11:57,737
I wouldn't be comfortable asking him to just

344
00:11:57,737 --> 00:11:59,723
open it off be like, let's go 1

345
00:11:59,723 --> 00:12:00,120
70.

346
00:12:00,915 --> 00:12:01,415
But

347
00:12:02,599 --> 00:12:04,190
I don't know. Just being on the road

348
00:12:04,190 --> 00:12:05,225
might be interesting.

349
00:12:05,862 --> 00:12:06,180
Yeah.

350
00:12:06,817 --> 00:12:07,692
Yeah. That's true.

351
00:12:08,886 --> 00:12:10,651
So I work a lot in mind Hannah

352
00:12:10,651 --> 00:12:12,477
and, like, way back in the day. They

353
00:12:12,477 --> 00:12:14,779
didn't have speed limits. Mh. Or not not

354
00:12:14,779 --> 00:12:16,605
a numbered speed limit. It was just reasonable

355
00:12:16,605 --> 00:12:17,637
and prudent. Yeah.

356
00:12:18,510 --> 00:12:19,010
And

357
00:12:19,879 --> 00:12:22,515
even though that's decades ago, people still ask

358
00:12:22,515 --> 00:12:24,592
me or or do they'll say, oh, they

359
00:12:24,592 --> 00:12:25,791
don't have speed limit there. Right?

360
00:12:26,683 --> 00:12:28,270
And, of course, they do. They do know.

361
00:12:28,428 --> 00:12:30,015
For as long as I've been working there,

362
00:12:30,332 --> 00:12:32,474
they they have had speed limits.

363
00:12:33,108 --> 00:12:34,060
At the same time,

364
00:12:35,107 --> 00:12:37,331
I have had my camaro going pretty fast

365
00:12:37,331 --> 00:12:39,397
on the open interstate there where it's just,

366
00:12:39,476 --> 00:12:40,373
you know, just

367
00:12:41,144 --> 00:12:43,233
straight for as far as you can see

368
00:12:43,384 --> 00:12:44,660
and it's a Sunny day. Yeah.

369
00:12:45,776 --> 00:12:47,610
Okay. We'll well back to the Us. Let's...

370
00:12:48,168 --> 00:12:50,320
Right. Well, I'm gonna go back to something

371
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:51,219
else that

372
00:12:52,967 --> 00:12:54,163
was from a trip that you and I

373
00:12:54,163 --> 00:12:55,540
took. We were in Minneapolis

374
00:12:55,997 --> 00:12:58,230
few months ago? Yep. Where... We... You and

375
00:12:58,310 --> 00:13:00,144
I met up in Minneapolis for the big

376
00:13:00,144 --> 00:13:01,101
10 basketball tournament.

377
00:13:01,674 --> 00:13:03,291
I think I've mentioned that on a podcast

378
00:13:03,430 --> 00:13:05,824
episode before, and you drove to that also.

379
00:13:06,223 --> 00:13:08,776
Yeah. Not my camry. Yeah. And I flew.

380
00:13:09,827 --> 00:13:12,131
And I remember telling you, like... So me

381
00:13:12,131 --> 00:13:13,403
and my dad wanted to go to the

382
00:13:13,403 --> 00:13:15,946
gym? Can we borrow your car? Mh. And

383
00:13:15,946 --> 00:13:18,130
you gave me a somewhat complicated

384
00:13:18,505 --> 00:13:20,971
answer. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It was like, well,

385
00:13:21,130 --> 00:13:23,698
if I take this vehicle, then

386
00:13:24,169 --> 00:13:25,925
Yeah. You can take the car. Right. If

387
00:13:26,005 --> 00:13:28,081
I take the other vehicle, then I'll drive

388
00:13:28,081 --> 00:13:28,400
you.

389
00:13:29,358 --> 00:13:29,858
And,

390
00:13:30,635 --> 00:13:31,753
you know, this was all in a text.

391
00:13:31,992 --> 00:13:32,870
So I just said,

392
00:13:33,601 --> 00:13:33,839
Cool.

393
00:13:36,375 --> 00:13:38,777
And but but I I sort of inferred

394
00:13:38,990 --> 00:13:40,362
that maybe you had

395
00:13:40,988 --> 00:13:42,441
like, questions about

396
00:13:42,815 --> 00:13:44,643
insurance coverage for you review. That wasn't it.

397
00:13:44,881 --> 00:13:46,152
No This is not at a, like, other,

398
00:13:46,311 --> 00:13:48,639
like, sun situation. Okay. This was purely

399
00:13:49,664 --> 00:13:51,021
like so the camry is older,

400
00:13:51,819 --> 00:13:53,356
and the the Subaru

401
00:13:53,814 --> 00:13:55,650
that I drove here, it's it's brent like,

402
00:13:55,889 --> 00:13:57,427
almost brand new. So

403
00:13:58,059 --> 00:14:00,292
and that's my wife's main car. So it

404
00:14:00,292 --> 00:14:01,808
wasn't really mined to give away...

405
00:14:02,446 --> 00:14:05,397
Oh, yeah. Offer up. Okay. Yeah. And also

406
00:14:05,397 --> 00:14:06,912
that one's brand new. So a little more

407
00:14:06,912 --> 00:14:07,811
nerves about

408
00:14:09,078 --> 00:14:11,011
about me driving it to the gym los

409
00:14:11,068 --> 00:14:12,024
she you drive that camaro.

410
00:14:12,819 --> 00:14:14,115
You're gonna open out my subaru

411
00:14:14,491 --> 00:14:15,446
in Minneapolis.

412
00:14:16,815 --> 00:14:18,567
There's was gonna be, like, 2 miles doing

413
00:14:18,646 --> 00:14:19,840
La fitness or something.

414
00:14:21,911 --> 00:14:23,344
You you're like, I'll drive you.

415
00:14:24,715 --> 00:14:27,195
Well, Yeah. Nothing nothing insurance related. No. Okay.

416
00:14:27,595 --> 00:14:27,754
Alright.

417
00:14:28,715 --> 00:14:29,434
Well, of course,

418
00:14:30,075 --> 00:14:31,215
I I do have,

419
00:14:31,595 --> 00:14:33,518
insurance if I were to drive your car,

420
00:14:33,677 --> 00:14:35,899
Sometimes the question comes up, like, oh, what...

421
00:14:36,058 --> 00:14:38,438
If somebody driving my car gets into an

422
00:14:38,438 --> 00:14:40,343
accident, Mh, you know, what happens then.

423
00:14:42,034 --> 00:14:42,355
Well,

424
00:14:43,154 --> 00:14:43,654
so

425
00:14:44,034 --> 00:14:45,575
I I I've heard

426
00:14:46,434 --> 00:14:47,894
many times, I've heard insurance

427
00:14:48,287 --> 00:14:50,673
agents try and explain it to their customers.

428
00:14:50,912 --> 00:14:52,582
And and I feel like I don't explain

429
00:14:52,582 --> 00:14:54,808
it the same way, but I'm I'm not

430
00:14:54,808 --> 00:14:56,001
an auto insurance agent.

431
00:14:56,654 --> 00:14:58,495
Okay? So I would say it this way.

432
00:14:59,214 --> 00:14:59,714
There's

433
00:15:00,174 --> 00:15:02,254
2 types of coverage under that personal auto

434
00:15:02,254 --> 00:15:06,024
policy. There's there's coverage for the property, the

435
00:15:06,024 --> 00:15:08,495
vehicle and there's coverage for liability for the

436
00:15:08,495 --> 00:15:09,610
drivers. Mh.

437
00:15:10,168 --> 00:15:11,784
And so if it's my policy,

438
00:15:12,894 --> 00:15:15,531
me and all of the drivers in my

439
00:15:15,531 --> 00:15:16,031
household

440
00:15:16,570 --> 00:15:19,366
are insurers on that policy. And we have

441
00:15:19,366 --> 00:15:22,096
liability coverage. Mh. For whatever car I drive.

442
00:15:22,255 --> 00:15:24,966
Yours, your wife's. Yeah. Yeah. At our rental

443
00:15:24,966 --> 00:15:25,206
car.

444
00:15:25,844 --> 00:15:28,395
K. I have liability coverage. So if I'm

445
00:15:28,395 --> 00:15:30,562
at fault in an accident in your car

446
00:15:30,562 --> 00:15:32,549
and I damage your property,

447
00:15:33,264 --> 00:15:34,058
my policy.

448
00:15:35,489 --> 00:15:37,237
Well pay that. Okay. Okay.

449
00:15:38,286 --> 00:15:38,524
Now,

450
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:40,854
you might rightly question

451
00:15:41,468 --> 00:15:42,843
how much liability

452
00:15:43,219 --> 00:15:44,594
insurance does this person

453
00:15:45,063 --> 00:15:46,814
borrowing my car have. I thought that would

454
00:15:46,814 --> 00:15:48,803
have been a good follow question for you.

455
00:15:49,439 --> 00:15:51,269
You ask me. I mean, I wouldn't have

456
00:15:51,269 --> 00:15:52,463
been offended. I mean it's reasonable.

457
00:15:54,148 --> 00:15:56,873
How about this? I mean, you might know

458
00:15:57,486 --> 00:15:58,621
people that

459
00:16:01,633 --> 00:16:04,203
they they like to maybe skim

460
00:16:04,578 --> 00:16:06,489
on things. Mh. Like, maybe they just have

461
00:16:06,489 --> 00:16:08,638
the state minimum liability limits.

462
00:16:09,449 --> 00:16:11,038
You know, which I don't know what they

463
00:16:11,038 --> 00:16:12,651
are in Illinois, mh

464
00:16:13,105 --> 00:16:16,125
where you live, but, they're probably not very

465
00:16:16,125 --> 00:16:16,363
high.

466
00:16:17,254 --> 00:16:18,073
They could be

467
00:16:18,530 --> 00:16:19,806
15 25000

468
00:16:19,806 --> 00:16:20,524
dollars. Mh.

469
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:22,140
And

470
00:16:22,996 --> 00:16:25,150
your Subaru is probably worth more than that.

471
00:16:25,309 --> 00:16:26,825
Yeah. Yeah. Being brand new. Yeah.

472
00:16:28,034 --> 00:16:28,534
So,

473
00:16:29,786 --> 00:16:31,798
yeah. Some people might be offended or

474
00:16:32,254 --> 00:16:34,005
they probably... A lot of people wouldn't even

475
00:16:34,005 --> 00:16:36,011
to know the answer you know, how much

476
00:16:36,011 --> 00:16:37,844
liability coverage do you have, if you were

477
00:16:37,844 --> 00:16:38,481
to ask them.

478
00:16:39,517 --> 00:16:42,465
But you might consider that, you know, somebody

479
00:16:42,465 --> 00:16:42,784
that's,

480
00:16:43,979 --> 00:16:44,616
let's say,

481
00:16:45,986 --> 00:16:48,934
22 years old doesn't have a very, you

482
00:16:48,934 --> 00:16:50,926
know, valuable vehicle of their own.

483
00:16:51,723 --> 00:16:53,475
It doesn't have a lot of discretionary money.

484
00:16:53,715 --> 00:16:56,119
Maybe hasn't really thought about what's gonna happen

485
00:16:56,119 --> 00:16:58,509
if I get an accident and I only

486
00:16:58,509 --> 00:17:00,739
have 25000 dollars worth of coverage. Mh.

487
00:17:01,615 --> 00:17:02,809
Yeah. They might not have a lot of

488
00:17:02,809 --> 00:17:03,606
liability insurance.

489
00:17:04,337 --> 00:17:06,167
So when I lend my car to somebody,

490
00:17:06,644 --> 00:17:07,144
which

491
00:17:07,598 --> 00:17:08,553
almost never happened.

492
00:17:09,030 --> 00:17:10,621
But if I was to do that, Yeah.

493
00:17:11,194 --> 00:17:11,914
I would be thinking,

494
00:17:12,873 --> 00:17:15,270
does this person have enough liability insurance. Yeah

495
00:17:15,270 --> 00:17:16,709
send me your policy, and I'll I'll make

496
00:17:16,709 --> 00:17:18,867
the call. Yeah. Just, yeah. Screenshot of the

497
00:17:18,867 --> 00:17:20,465
deck page. That's all I need.

498
00:17:21,435 --> 00:17:22,944
And then I can give you the key.

499
00:17:23,738 --> 00:17:25,724
Now not everybody's like me. I get that,

500
00:17:26,677 --> 00:17:28,424
but that's something that I think about.

501
00:17:29,950 --> 00:17:31,541
Yeah. Like, let's say we met up at,

502
00:17:31,940 --> 00:17:33,849
it's a family reunion, big house and it's

503
00:17:33,849 --> 00:17:35,441
some that's close enough for me to drive.

504
00:17:36,729 --> 00:17:38,559
I don't. There's prob... There there could be

505
00:17:38,559 --> 00:17:40,071
a family member that shows up where I'm

506
00:17:40,071 --> 00:17:40,628
like, yeah.

507
00:17:41,584 --> 00:17:43,812
I don't know, man. No I don't think

508
00:17:43,812 --> 00:17:45,881
so. Heart heart no. Sorry bella.

509
00:17:47,642 --> 00:17:49,386
Well, okay, Bell as a teenager. She's on

510
00:17:49,386 --> 00:17:52,479
her parents policy. I would bet that her

511
00:17:52,479 --> 00:17:53,772
parents have

512
00:17:54,715 --> 00:17:55,668
good liability coverage.

513
00:17:56,860 --> 00:17:58,448
I would I would think so. I guess,

514
00:17:59,401 --> 00:18:00,275
I don't know for sure.

515
00:18:01,069 --> 00:18:02,754
But I wouldn't lend Bella on my car

516
00:18:02,754 --> 00:18:04,193
because I don't trust her with the camaro.

517
00:18:04,352 --> 00:18:05,631
Yeah. That's more of the issue. It's not

518
00:18:05,631 --> 00:18:06,990
an insurance issue. Yeah. Yeah.

519
00:18:07,949 --> 00:18:10,426
Okay. But now I wanna, like, swing back

520
00:18:10,426 --> 00:18:12,359
to the rental car things you're right. If

521
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:13,099
you read

522
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,960
the rental car agreement. There's all these little

523
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:17,980
things that will trigger

524
00:18:18,519 --> 00:18:21,510
cancellation of the rental agreement. Which then cancels

525
00:18:21,726 --> 00:18:22,782
any insurance

526
00:18:23,237 --> 00:18:24,907
protection that you might have purchased time. It's

527
00:18:24,907 --> 00:18:26,578
so I thought it was, like, it's it

528
00:18:26,578 --> 00:18:28,665
just like, cuts out when you're on that

529
00:18:28,665 --> 00:18:31,059
gravel road. You're saying it just outright cancels

530
00:18:31,059 --> 00:18:32,517
it for the entire

531
00:18:33,054 --> 00:18:33,873
correct rental

532
00:18:34,903 --> 00:18:35,142
Yes.

533
00:18:35,778 --> 00:18:38,164
As... No, they they all... They could be

534
00:18:38,164 --> 00:18:38,903
written differently

535
00:18:39,437 --> 00:18:41,640
different rental agreements, but the ones that

536
00:18:41,999 --> 00:18:44,477
I have seen and use in a an

537
00:18:44,477 --> 00:18:46,974
insurance class that I teach. Mh. It reads

538
00:18:47,354 --> 00:18:49,692
that the rental agreement

539
00:18:50,151 --> 00:18:50,651
terminate

540
00:18:51,283 --> 00:18:53,770
when any of these certain things

541
00:18:54,144 --> 00:18:54,621
are done,

542
00:18:55,496 --> 00:18:55,996
like

543
00:18:56,370 --> 00:18:58,142
driving on unpaid roads

544
00:18:59,806 --> 00:19:01,800
like, driving without your seat belt.

545
00:19:03,316 --> 00:19:06,187
So are there the those... Especially the seat

546
00:19:06,187 --> 00:19:07,463
belt 1 I can see is maybe a

547
00:19:07,463 --> 00:19:10,130
little reasonable, but are there like, restrictions

548
00:19:10,505 --> 00:19:11,858
on what they can put in there, because

549
00:19:11,858 --> 00:19:13,768
it's kinda, like terms and conditions, A lot

550
00:19:13,768 --> 00:19:16,315
of people probably aren't even read in those

551
00:19:16,315 --> 00:19:18,247
exclusions or those cancellation

552
00:19:18,718 --> 00:19:20,471
conditions. So of course. Then It's, like, no.

553
00:19:20,630 --> 00:19:22,144
They can't just put, like, if you sneeze

554
00:19:22,144 --> 00:19:24,774
in the car, we're canceling the policy. There's

555
00:19:24,774 --> 00:19:25,672
gotta be some

556
00:19:26,142 --> 00:19:28,127
Well, that's a better question for an attorney,

557
00:19:28,445 --> 00:19:30,271
you know, that specializes in, you know,

558
00:19:30,985 --> 00:19:33,208
contracts of adhesion like that, then, of course,

559
00:19:33,367 --> 00:19:34,796
people are not reading that they just have

560
00:19:34,796 --> 00:19:37,198
to sep in whole or not at all.

561
00:19:38,311 --> 00:19:40,698
I can't say what where the line might

562
00:19:40,698 --> 00:19:42,528
be in what they could put in there.

563
00:19:42,767 --> 00:19:43,744
But I think

564
00:19:44,533 --> 00:19:45,809
many of the things that they put in

565
00:19:45,809 --> 00:19:47,244
there are unreasonable.

566
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,535
The... The unpaid pro thing is kind of

567
00:19:50,992 --> 00:19:52,608
unreasonable. Like, driveway

568
00:19:53,477 --> 00:19:56,022
Times... Well, no. That's not a road. That

569
00:19:56,022 --> 00:19:58,009
would be my argument as an attorney. Okay.

570
00:19:58,248 --> 00:19:58,884
That's not a road,

571
00:20:00,076 --> 00:20:02,723
But there are many unpaid roads

572
00:20:03,033 --> 00:20:06,994
in towns like this, vacation towns. Yeah. Or

573
00:20:06,994 --> 00:20:08,737
or all over Montana we're at work.

574
00:20:09,371 --> 00:20:09,609
Yeah.

575
00:20:11,532 --> 00:20:13,045
And the way it reads, if you take

576
00:20:13,045 --> 00:20:15,911
that rental car on an unpaid road that

577
00:20:15,911 --> 00:20:17,742
terminate the rental agreement. Well, you know and

578
00:20:17,742 --> 00:20:18,275
you know

579
00:20:18,875 --> 00:20:20,634
because most most time you rent a car.

580
00:20:21,115 --> 00:20:22,955
It's it's newer models, and all those said

581
00:20:23,115 --> 00:20:25,535
Gps. Mh. So I've

582
00:20:25,848 --> 00:20:27,041
even if it didn't they could pop an

583
00:20:27,041 --> 00:20:28,790
air like an air tag. Mh. From there.

584
00:20:29,188 --> 00:20:31,017
And they'll know exactly where you drove. Yeah.

585
00:20:31,335 --> 00:20:32,845
And that's the first thing they're checking and

586
00:20:32,845 --> 00:20:33,481
you make a claim.

587
00:20:34,372 --> 00:20:35,726
Yeah. They they could. Yeah.

588
00:20:36,602 --> 00:20:38,275
Yeah. There's things like, no, Wish I had

589
00:20:38,275 --> 00:20:39,629
the list in front of me, but it's

590
00:20:39,629 --> 00:20:41,005
it's stuff like, if you

591
00:20:41,461 --> 00:20:42,257
overload the vehicle,

592
00:20:43,784 --> 00:20:45,849
Like, should you ever have more people in

593
00:20:45,849 --> 00:20:47,676
a car than you had seat belts. Mh.

594
00:20:48,153 --> 00:20:48,947
Yeah. I have 2.

595
00:20:49,662 --> 00:20:50,298
In rental cars.

596
00:20:51,742 --> 00:20:53,251
I saw 1 where it was, like, if

597
00:20:53,251 --> 00:20:54,386
you use

598
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:55,260
a

599
00:20:56,348 --> 00:20:58,198
device capable of

600
00:20:58,809 --> 00:20:59,945
cellular technology

601
00:21:01,130 --> 00:21:01,450
in...

602
00:21:02,490 --> 00:21:04,250
Or if you used it when it wasn't

603
00:21:04,250 --> 00:21:05,529
in hands free mode,

604
00:21:06,169 --> 00:21:09,069
that terminate your rental agreement cancels any insurance

605
00:21:09,130 --> 00:21:10,089
production might have bought with them.

606
00:21:10,902 --> 00:21:11,619
Okay? Well,

607
00:21:12,894 --> 00:21:14,430
I mean, I use it for

608
00:21:14,886 --> 00:21:17,117
navigation. If I'm in a strange place on

609
00:21:17,117 --> 00:21:19,029
a unfamiliar place. I use it for navigation.

610
00:21:19,268 --> 00:21:19,427
Yeah.

611
00:21:20,397 --> 00:21:23,015
What if the the little voice that tells

612
00:21:23,015 --> 00:21:25,395
you, hey, turned left at, you know, Strat

613
00:21:25,395 --> 00:21:26,030
and Boulevard.

614
00:21:27,141 --> 00:21:28,980
What if that gets turned off? And then

615
00:21:28,980 --> 00:21:30,250
now I have to have it in my

616
00:21:30,250 --> 00:21:31,520
hands so that I can look at it.

617
00:21:31,679 --> 00:21:33,742
Does that mean it's not enhanced free mode?

618
00:21:34,615 --> 00:21:35,489
Sounds like it. Yeah.

619
00:21:36,538 --> 00:21:37,894
I feel like those,

620
00:21:38,532 --> 00:21:41,483
rental agreements are just, pepper with things like

621
00:21:41,483 --> 00:21:44,115
that designed to have their attorneys be able

622
00:21:44,115 --> 00:21:45,470
to say, no. Gotcha.

623
00:21:45,884 --> 00:21:47,720
This is terminated. We're not paying that claim.

624
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:48,279
Yeah.

625
00:21:49,716 --> 00:21:50,376
I'm probably

626
00:21:50,913 --> 00:21:52,510
gonna pull you off topic here, but I

627
00:21:52,510 --> 00:21:54,825
found when I did my wedding insurance policy.

628
00:21:55,318 --> 00:21:57,697
I found that stuff. Like, all those exclusions.

629
00:21:58,253 --> 00:21:59,125
Interesting. It's like,

630
00:21:59,839 --> 00:22:00,791
a nuclear war,

631
00:22:01,346 --> 00:22:01,584
you know.

632
00:22:03,980 --> 00:22:06,523
Civil war. It's like, yeah, that happens.

633
00:22:07,476 --> 00:22:08,589
We're not covering it.

634
00:22:09,781 --> 00:22:10,019
Well,

635
00:22:10,829 --> 00:22:12,978
Yeah. But if if those are things that

636
00:22:12,978 --> 00:22:15,845
don't happen. Yeah. Those were III don't remember

637
00:22:15,845 --> 00:22:18,233
anything in there that were unreasonable. I think

638
00:22:18,233 --> 00:22:18,733
though

639
00:22:19,441 --> 00:22:19,600
like,

640
00:22:20,633 --> 00:22:21,824
if you're left the alter,

641
00:22:22,301 --> 00:22:23,572
I think that 1 that 1 is in

642
00:22:23,572 --> 00:22:23,731
there.

643
00:22:24,605 --> 00:22:25,717
Yes. That stuff happens.

644
00:22:26,369 --> 00:22:28,523
Well, I haven't read it recently, but I

645
00:22:28,523 --> 00:22:29,422
read that policy

646
00:22:29,879 --> 00:22:32,134
with you, and I do remember that

647
00:22:32,672 --> 00:22:33,230
there. Yeah.

648
00:22:34,043 --> 00:22:35,638
I don't remember anything I like ridiculous stuff,

649
00:22:35,798 --> 00:22:36,537
Like, if

650
00:22:38,191 --> 00:22:40,743
the cater doesn't show up or something. I

651
00:22:40,743 --> 00:22:41,939
don't think I me that there.

652
00:22:42,817 --> 00:22:43,056
Right.

653
00:22:44,662 --> 00:22:46,410
Things... Well, you know, this would be a

654
00:22:46,410 --> 00:22:48,079
fun little game. What what would be things

655
00:22:48,079 --> 00:22:50,066
that do go wrong at weddings that they

656
00:22:50,066 --> 00:22:51,973
could possibly put in there just to cancel

657
00:22:51,973 --> 00:22:53,419
your coverage. The first 1 that comes to

658
00:22:53,498 --> 00:22:56,042
My is the Brat group not showing up.

659
00:22:57,076 --> 00:23:00,358
Yeah. What about, like, you know, a vendor,

660
00:23:00,732 --> 00:23:01,709
like a flo

661
00:23:02,179 --> 00:23:02,499
you know,

662
00:23:03,218 --> 00:23:05,694
not coming through with their contractual obligations and

663
00:23:05,694 --> 00:23:08,171
there's no flowers. Yeah. Like, you can't cancel

664
00:23:08,171 --> 00:23:09,785
a wedding because of that. I don't know

665
00:23:09,785 --> 00:23:12,105
if you ever... If... Ashley, my wife ever

666
00:23:12,105 --> 00:23:13,085
told you this, but

667
00:23:13,545 --> 00:23:15,164
her hair and makeup person

668
00:23:15,625 --> 00:23:16,265
got Covid.

669
00:23:17,638 --> 00:23:18,138
The

670
00:23:19,148 --> 00:23:22,010
evening before, she she posts on Instagram. Doesn't

671
00:23:22,010 --> 00:23:23,520
tell actually. Post on Instagram.

672
00:23:24,236 --> 00:23:24,951
I've got Covid.

673
00:23:25,765 --> 00:23:28,244
I'm not going to any of my appointments.

674
00:23:29,924 --> 00:23:31,125
That was a big... That was like the

675
00:23:31,125 --> 00:23:31,625
big

676
00:23:32,244 --> 00:23:32,744
wedding

677
00:23:33,525 --> 00:23:34,325
scare mess up.

678
00:23:35,059 --> 00:23:36,972
Thing that went wrong for ours. I don't

679
00:23:36,972 --> 00:23:39,365
know if that would have been covered... I

680
00:23:39,365 --> 00:23:41,619
mean, because Covid was still pretty new

681
00:23:42,076 --> 00:23:43,511
when all that when all that stuff went

682
00:23:43,511 --> 00:23:43,750
down.

683
00:23:44,323 --> 00:23:45,993
We had to move... I mean, we had

684
00:23:45,993 --> 00:23:48,300
to move ours. Yeah. And when you did,

685
00:23:48,459 --> 00:23:50,925
you got you got paid the Yeah. The.

686
00:23:51,258 --> 00:23:52,847
Got a small clean page is my venue

687
00:23:52,847 --> 00:23:55,390
cost it went up. Good thing. Yeah.

688
00:23:56,344 --> 00:23:58,172
I think prior to Covid,

689
00:23:58,584 --> 00:24:00,182
A lot of people have just poo poo

690
00:24:00,182 --> 00:24:02,020
those sorts of policies like that. That's a

691
00:24:02,020 --> 00:24:04,257
waste of money. Weddings are already so expensive.

692
00:24:04,736 --> 00:24:05,535
Type of the insurance.

693
00:24:06,426 --> 00:24:08,036
And so many people,

694
00:24:08,487 --> 00:24:10,628
you know, got paid on claims, you know,

695
00:24:10,708 --> 00:24:12,452
that same summer that you did. Yeah. The

696
00:24:12,452 --> 00:24:13,483
payment wasn't too bad.

697
00:24:14,214 --> 00:24:16,368
And it it was it was on top

698
00:24:16,368 --> 00:24:17,245
of that, like,

699
00:24:18,442 --> 00:24:19,580
lot of party liability

700
00:24:20,117 --> 00:24:21,567
that I had to get. Mh.

701
00:24:22,442 --> 00:24:23,716
You got an open bar and a wedding.

702
00:24:24,193 --> 00:24:26,262
All, these menus are yeah you're get need.

703
00:24:27,376 --> 00:24:29,047
You're gonna eat some coverage. Yeah.

704
00:24:30,971 --> 00:24:32,642
Yeah. The insurance is always worth that when

705
00:24:32,642 --> 00:24:33,517
you get your claim paid.

706
00:24:34,233 --> 00:24:35,188
Sure. Yeah. Yeah.

707
00:24:36,938 --> 00:24:38,529
Alright. So I think we're about out of

708
00:24:38,529 --> 00:24:40,057
time right there. But Jake,

709
00:24:40,774 --> 00:24:43,246

in about insurance in there, and maybe we'll
