It's a great time to hit the "refresh" button and
get a clean start.

But there's also a "downside".

A lot of people try to set goals and shortly
afterwards they're already way off track.

Now wait... I know what you're thinking... that's
because goal-setting doesn't work.  And you may
think that if you've ever tried to set goals and
failed.

You start with good intentions, but after a
few weeks (or even days!), you give up.

The good news? Most of us fail not because our
intentions are flawed. We fail because the process
is flawed.

10 Insurance Myths



Men may be more gullible when it comes to insurance myths than women but even women think a number of popular myths about insurance are true, according to a survey by online insurance seller Insure.com

Insure.com said it recently surveyed 2,000 adults, half women and half men, from all regions of the country, asking them whether 10 insurance-related statements were true or false. All the statements were false.

Insure.com also looked at who is more likely to believe a myth – men or women. In all cases except two, men were more likely to be duped by an insurance myth.

Below are the 10 insurance myths:

Myth 1: I should buy insurance coverage for my house based on its real estate market value. 52% think it’s true (45% women, 55% men). Reality: Buy coverage based on a home’s cost to reconstruct (materials and labor).

Myth 2: Red cars cost more to insure because they get pulled over for speeding more. 46% think it’s true (52% women, 48% men). Reality: Car color doesn’t affect insurance rates.

Myth 3: If I cause a crash with extensive damages to others, my auto insurance company can cancel me immediately. 44% think it’s true (50% women, 58% men). Reality: If an insurer wants to drop a customer due to claims, it generally has to wait until the policy period is up.

Myth 4: Small cars are the cheapest to insure. 40% think it’s true (42% women, 58% men). Reality: Small and mid-size SUVs and minivans are generally the cheapest to insure.

Myth 5: The Affordable Care Act allows health insurance companies to base rates on medical conditions such as high blood pressure, heart disease and cancer, 36% think it’s true (42% women, 58% men). Reality: The Affordable Care Act prohibits health insurers from basing rates on pre-existing conditions.

Myth 6: Comprehensive auto insurance covers everything and anything. 32% think it’s true (41% women, 59% men). Reality: Comprehensive coverage covers only narrow portions of possible problems, including car theft, storm damage, animal collisions and vandalism.

Myth 7: Thieves prefer to steal new cars. 29% think it’s true (42% women, 58% men). Reality: It’s more lucrative to steal old cars and sell them for parts.

Myth 8: If my friend borrows my car and crashes it, their insurance will pay for damage. 25% think it’s true (48% women, 52% men). Reality: Your insurance pays when someone else drives your car.

Myth 9: The Affordable Care Act requires me to take the health plan offered by my employer. 19% think it’s true (41% women, 59% men). Reality: The ACA requires almost all Americans to buy health insurance but doesn’t say where the must get it.

Myth 10: Out-of-state speeding tickets can’t follow you home. 13% say it’s true (34% women, 66% men). Reality: Yes, they can.
