We make plenty of decisions throughout our life. Some are determined by how old we are, others by how much money we make. We know when to get a driver’s license, when we can rent a car, and eventually when we can buy a home.
How do you know when to buy life insurance? Here are a few good ways to tell when it’s time to buy a life insurance policy.
Data breaches are inevitable. Could your business be next?
We’re living in the most technologically advanced time in history. There’s more computing power in our smartphone than what was used to send men to the moon. Buying products or services can be done at the touch of a button or the scan of a screen.
The world has gone digital, and so has our data. Because of this, data breaches are common and inevitable.
There are plenty of reasons why accidents happen – road rage, confusion, bad traffic – but distracted driving is the biggest reason of all. April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, and on behalf of Charlotte Insurance, we want everyone to stay safe on the roads. Your family wants you to come home safe every day. It starts with being safe behind the wheel.
Anything that takes your attention off the road can cause distracted driving – things like eating, drinking, smoking, and daydreaming. One of the most common problems these days is cell phone use. We can do so much more with our phones than ever before and many of us are doing it all while we’re driving.
When living expenses and bills start piling up, it’s common to look around and wonder what you can cut to save some cash. You lower your cable from 300 channels to 30. Your internet connection may become a little slower. Do you really need all that data for your cell phone?
Next on your list of expenses to slash may be your auto insurance. Do you really need full coverage? While removing full coverage may save you some money in the short term, there are a number of things you need to consider first.
The best way to prevent accidents, make something last longer, and get the most value out of anything you buy is to take care of it. You take the time to maintain your car by getting your oil changed, your tires rotated, and your brakes checked. But do you take the same care when it comes to maintaining your home?
Take a look at these schedules to keep your home maintained throughout the year to stay safe, keep your home looking good, and make sure everything functions the way you need it to.
