Learn how to prepare for a possible recession and make sure your car insurance coverage is enough to protect your finances. What should you do to get ready for a recession? How much car insurance coverage do you really need? Hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola discuss recession risks and car insurance basics to help you understand how to protect your finances. Joined by NerdWallet senior news writer Anna Helhoski, they begin with a discussion of recession warnings, with tips and tricks on budgeting with the 50/30/20 rule, building an emergency fund, and prepping your credit and savings. Then, insurance Nerd Lisa Green joins Sean and Elizabeth to discuss how to choose the right amount of car insurance. They discuss the difference between liability, collision, and comprehensive coverage, what minimum insurance limits really protect you from (and what they don’t), and how umbrella policies and uninsured motorist coverage can add extra protection. You’ll also hear ways to lower your car insurance bill by shopping around, raising your deductible, and finding overlooked discounts.
