What Does an Insurance Agent Do?
Written by Nicholas Tyers Saturday, 11 February 2012
Shopping for insurance quotes and buying insurance online is so simple, you might wonder why you would ever need an insurance agent. After all, when you shop for insurance online, you can compare lots of policies quickly in your PJs at 2 a.m. We’re all for that, but insurance agents do a lot more than sell policies and if you ever have a complicated claim or a question about your coverage you need answered fast, you’ll be happy you established a relationship with an agent early in the game.

American woman set to battle the boys in Nascar
Written by Nicholas Tyers Wednesday, 25 January 2012
There’s to be no fooling around when the female racing sensation Courtney Force takes to the track in a Funny Car this year.
As the daughter of Nascar superstar John Force, Courtney has grown up with little else on her mind but breaking the mould as a professional racer.

Insuring your shiny fast ride can add thousands of dollars to cost of ownership over the life of the car…unless you’re a savvy shopper. Here’s what you need to know to help you find cheap sports car insurance (or at least reasonably priced). For starters, different insurance companies have different definitions of what is and isn’t a sports car. This is typically based on a VIN (vehicle identification number) system published by the Insurance Services Office or the company’s own ranking system. Either syst
