You should make a disclosure that you are not licensed insurance consultant, agent, or broker, and people should advise with a trusted licensed professional, after watching your video.

AS A LICENSED AGENT I ACTUALLY AGREE WITH THIS VIDEO...THIS IS A VERY GOOD VIDEO....licensed in 45 states*** i can understand your concern that some1 may ASSUME she is licensed although she has never mentioned or stated as much

jerome junior as a licensed agent to A LICENSED AGENT IN 45 STATES, I agree, this is a pretty good video. But as A LICENSED AGENT IN 45 STATES, you should know that someone in the position to be called influencer , must be careful with what they say, since it can be interpreted as direct advice. So making disclosure is going to give at least a layer of protection to Justine @Debt free millennials.

Licensed in 45 states ?? I don’t believe you based of the comment that you liked this video. So you paid like over $45,000 to get licenses and you pay tens of thousands to renew your licenses ?????? You drove to 45 states to get licensed ?? I m licensed in CA

Young Lady, young lady, young lady! I am a 72 year old millennial (lol). I have never paid much attention to my vehicle insurance policies. Today I was getting ready to write a check for my auto insurance and realized that with all this inflation I'm short of funds. So, I told my wife that tomorrow I'm going to my insurance company and tell them I can't afford what I'm paying presently for the policy. I decide to get on youtube and look at insurance company reviews. Hallelujah! I ran into your video and you taught me how I could save some money and you gave me a strategy for tomorrow's meeting. You are a blessing!! I wish you and your family the BEST.

@@2_572 Not yet. I went to talk with an agent at the auto club. I told them that I wanted to increase my deductible on my two cars to $1000.00 each. I have a Travel Trailer that's 2 years old and they value it at 39,000 with a $250.00 deductible that I will probable increase as well. Talking to the lady I felt while sitting there that she was not too enthusiastic about what I wanted to do. She told to go home and think about it. So I did. Anyway I'll be going back tomorrow to make that changes. Thank you again for your advice and video. I'm going to watch it again, Emil.

As somebody about to turn 30 in 2 months and is JUST about to buy their very first vehicle, this video was perfect. I was drowning in the most aggressively toned 'what not to do when buying a car/car insurance' videos that were just making me feel worse for not knowing these things. Your calm voice and very relatable advice really helped me figure a few things out! All while not feeling like a total failure... 😅 Genuinely, thank you so much!!

A lot of tips people don't know about here, like paying every 6 months and bundling. What shocked me here was how cheap it is to jack up liability coverage. For some reason, I always thought it made a big difference so I've been stingy about my liability coverage, but I'm looking at my own policy, and holy cow you're right. And I'd never heard of Gabi before, I'll check it out!

Hey Justine, I came across here doing some research on a vid I'm working on for insurance. Great Job overall. On your policy you should lower you Comprehensive deductible. It won't cost you more than a dollar or two a month, IF THAT, and could save you hundreds if you have a comp claim. I'm glad you pointed on maxing you liability limits, that is important for not only giving you better coverage but it helps on your renewals each year(especially if you re-shop with another company). Just a note you might want to add a disclosure when you're recommending these changes. Some Notes: No-fault states don't cover some of the things mentioned. Also, some states do not require BI limits, and you can go higher than 250/500 with a lot of companies(not Progressive). Agreed! Brand loyalty is almost dead with the majority of companies. Def check out the savings with progressive in most states if you have a college degree, it helps. TIP: They highly rate the # of driver's in the home so if you have more driver's it makes a big difference.

I think this was a great video that was perfect for BOTH people that want to understand the details AND for the people who just want you to tell us what to do. Some remaining questions I had were....I know I'm going to get liability. But do people NEED to get comprehensive if I don't care about natural disasters/robberies? And if liability already kind of covers collision...do we NEED collision, especially if I don't really care about my old car. At what point is the extra cost for comprehensive + collision not worth it for what it covers? Also some feedback, for young adults that are clueless like me. Everything made complete sense until terms like deductibles and premium came in. But after a few rewinds, I realized that the deductible is just what you always have to pay to initiate the insurance...and premium is just the cost of the insurance. I know it's kinda stupid, but it took me a bit. Thanks for this awesome video!

i was sitting here playing with the numbers for days, this video helped me get an idea, i just wish you had more visuals of lets say the estimate calculator they have on most insurance sites.. i went with no comprehension coverage in the end because the bill would jump up 100 + 'bucks.. I need them to be alot lower than they are now..

23 y.o, just obtained my license about 2 weeks ago, getting a car from a friend once I get it fixed up, and going to get some insurance on it so he can do a title transfer. Not knowing where to start, this video gave me some good insight and tips on what to look for! Thanks a lot, and I hope I find what’s best for me. Adulting is challenging, but with the right studies and execution, it’ll be ok.

When you drive an older vehicle (and have a larger emergency fund) you can even self-insure for some perils. For example, I have a 30 year old Jeep and an 11 year old truck, so neither is particularly valuable. In Colorado comprehensive pays out mostly on glass damage (windshields). Older vehicles are barely worth stealing and floods are rare. By dropping comprehensive coverage I save enough every year or two to pay for a windshield. I replace one about every five years, so there is a net savings. I no longer carry collision either, but I do have Uninsured Motorist Property Damage coverage. If I cause the accident I have to repair my car, but if some turnip (uninsured motorist -- you can't get blood from a turnip) hits me then the insurance company pays. I have never had to use this coverage (or collision either, for that matter) in nearly 50 years of driving. Obviously this advice only applies to those who drive older, cheaper vehicles and are willing to assume more (but not a lot more) financial risk. If you have a 1,000 dollar deductible you are going to be paying for your own windshields every time anyway, since they are only a few hundred at worst. It won't work for everyone, but it works for me. My premium to insure both vehicles is under one thousand per year total.

I did the changes you mentioned and my rate went up by $152 per month! Did it happen to anyone else? Is it because I have been driving only for 2 years?

Oh no! Your driving history can play into your premium. Do you have any accidents or tickets on your driving record? That also can increase it. What state did you apply for insurance within? There are plenty of factors that could go into an increase. Without knowing who your insurance company is, car you drive, driving record, etc it's hard to determine.

I paid $414 for per month with Progressive!! I had 1 accident was my fault and 1 speeding ticket in school zoon. So what insurance company do I need to find the best lower rate insurance??
@DebtFreeMillennials
@DebtFreeMillennials 5 жыл бұрын
Holy cow that's a super high premium! I would ask Progressive how long you have to be in "good driver" status before they can lower your premium. I don't have a specific insurance company, but I used Gabi to help me identify a good deal.

Tickets are huge especially speeding through a school zone. When did you have the accident and speeding ticket? Usually they will drop off at 3 years.
@V.E.R.O.

You're most likely paying that much because of your accident and the ticket, you're considered a high risk. After 3 years it shouldn't count against you.

Basically that $1000 deductible is telling the insurance company you are willing to fix minor fender benders out of your own pocket. Get a $100 deductible and your telling them your gonna call them for a parking lot door dent 😂
