Protect your Money While on Vacation

Your suitcase isn’t the only thing you need to pack for a trip. You should also make sure you have the right things in your wallet before you leave. Use these tips to keep your money protected while you’re traveling.

Clean out your wallet

Remove your Social Security card and any extra credit cards you won’t need while traveling. Just take the essentials for your trip.

Leave a Copy

Make photocopies of the back and front of the credit cards you’re taking and leave the copies with a friend or family member. If your wallet is lost or stolen, it will be easier for you to contact your credit card company and bank.

Look into travelers check cards

A traveler’s check card is a more convenient version of traveler’s checks. It works like a prepaid credit card and can be replaced quickly in an emergency. Carry it in your wallet instead of a stack of traveler’s checks.

Protect your passport

If you’re traveling internationally, know what to do if your passport is lost or stolen. You’ll need to report the loss to the nearest US Embassy or Consulate as soon as possible, so look up the address and contact information and take it with you.

Summer Insurance Produts You Should Consider

Summer Time Insurance....

Taking the family on the annual summer vacation this year?  If so, you’ll need to plan ahead and consider your insurance needs before setting off.

Though a majority of Americans have been staying home the past few years due to a lack of discretionary funds, electing instead to practice the famed “staycation,” many families’ financial situations have improved recently, freeing up money for things like vacations once again.  

But risk is inherent when traveling. 

So it’s always wise to consider your options before you depart.

What kind of coverage should you buy? That depends totally on your plans.

If you’ll be renting a car or motorcycle and driving, you’ll need auto insurance that covers rentals—or you’ll have to purchase the temporary coverage offered at the rental counter.

If you’ll be renting a home on the beach or elsewhere, you’ll need to make sure your home insurance is up-to-date—or buy renters insurance during the period you’re away from home.

If your plans include hitting the lake in a sailboat, canoe or some other sort of watercraft, you’ll want to make sure it’s insured for your own protection.

These are just a few of the types of insurance coverage you may need this summer.

Happy vacationing!
