Insurers are crooks.

been in my house 19 years at the time Ida passed.
never made a single homeowners claim.

first time i take any damage significant enough to file a claim, they file bankruptcy after cutting an initial $5,000 check to cover $78,000 in damages.

so $70k out of pocket after paying at least that over the previous almost 20 years.

oh, but the state is reviewing and may reimburse qualifying claims that weren’t covered by home owners.

but it was “only a 4”, so we must be exaggerating the significance.
and 120 years from now this will be considered no big deal.
