Do You Need Insurance?

You've worked most of your life to give your family a comfortable house to live in along with a nice car to drive, be it here in Thailand or abroad in your home country. You want to see your children living happily and contented with the life that you've been building for them over the years.

The sad thing is, that accidents do and will happen, not to everyone, but they do happen.

When and if they do, your first question will be, am I protected to ensure that what you've built through the years won't be easily blown away with the wind?

If your answer is yes, then congratulations!

But then again, what if you're ‘not’ properly protected to help ensure that everything you've worked for including yourself or course? You may as well call it ‘game over’ or time to start afresh, which, if you have unlimited funds is not going to be a problem.

Remember, even the most careful people should have insurance. They can't prevent accidents from ever happening, no one can. Although, having insurance is not a replacement for good risk management, it's designed to help you absorb any responsibility that may occur.

Hopefully as you read on, this article will let you realise the importance of having insurance.
Not just for your protection, but for the protection of your loved ones and the dreams that you've built.

If you do have insurance and you're tempted to put it off, seriously think about it before you do.

Insurance helps you pay for everyday expenses and can provide you with a back-up in case of an accident or illness.

What is insurance? Insurance, according to the dictionary, is a promise of reimbursement in the case of loss or is an amount paid to people or companies after a disaster or accident. In short, insurance is a policy designed to make sure that you are no worse off after an accident or disaster than you were before it happened. Insurance is designed to protect you and your family from unforeseen disasters and financial burdens.
Insurance comes in all shapes and sizes.
It runs the extent from personal insurance to business liability plans, as well as automobile and homeowner's insurance plans. Knowing what types of insurance you need is also important to make sure that you don't overspend on things that are unnecessary.

There are different types or kinds of insurance for every type of situation. Here are some important types of insurance:
Personal accident insurance, medical/health, automobile/motorcycle, homeowner's insurance and liability insurance.

Consider what your needs are and what you really need to protect.

These are the most common types that anyone may need in case something happens to your property, to your loved ones and most specially to you.

Health insurance - OK, so not everyone (touch wood) is going to become seriously ill and require emergency medical treatment, but what if it was you? Ask yourself, if you become ill, how can you cover your medical and hospital expenses?
Could you pay to be repatriated to your home country if needed?
If you’re unsure, then protect your wealth by purchasing a good medical insurance plan, as this is a vital risk management strategy for all wage earners.

Vehicle insurance - Imagine you were to be involved in a car accident with another vehicle and then found out that it was your fault. Would you be able to pay for all the damage done? Would you be able to pay for the repair or replacement of the other car and pay for the medical bills of the other driver and their passengers?
Owning a vehicle and letting it out of the garage would definitely mean you should have auto insurance.

Having insurance is important to good security and financial planning, but you still need to assess your own personal risk factor and affordability. If you are still having second thoughts of getting insurance, you may want to think again. Having insurance should be considered as an investment, you'll say you don't need it so why pay for something you don't need?

Remember there will always be something that you need yet you can't see - protection and knowing it's just there when you need it.
