Great video Logan. You laid out information that was succinct and provided a practical view through your examples. Much appreciated!

The problem is in a state like NV people don't even carry auto insurance because they can't afford it, let alone getting umbrella.

[@LoganAllec]

Wow, NV lets people drive cars without carrying auto insurance?

[@corefishing4858]

@LoganAllec no but a ton do because it's SO Expensive

If I do side work for someone as a sole practitioner and they say that what I did burned down their house, would this insurance cover me?

[@AbenaaTriesBeauty]

That entire example had me at hello. I’m getting this

You lost all credibility with me when you said "spank that like button".

Unless I'm misunderstand this, getting umbrella insurance to match your net worth still doesn't ensure your assets with be fully protected. Say a person has a net worth of $2 million and they get coverage for that amount. If you get hit and lose a lawsuit for, say, $4 million, the insurance company will cover that first $2 million. You'll then be on the hook for the other $2 million. Am I missing anything?

[@hypocritekiller4900]

Yeah, but what would cause someone to be liable for freaking $4 million?

[@PantsStatusZero]

@@hypocritekiller4900 lying about sandy hook? 🤷

[@marcusbailey7900]

I think you are missing something. In your example, you normal insurance policy should be enough to cover the first $2M. Then the umbrella insurance will kick in to cover the other $2M. Now your $4M lawsuit will be completely covered by your normal insurance policy and the umbrella policy without you taking a hit to your personal assets. I hope my explanation helps.

What if I co-own property such as, rentals, recreational vehicles, land. Am I still eligible and do I also have to include co-own property?

[@kevinpyne5808]

Would an umbrella policy protect my home if sued as a result of a friend's action as driver of a leased vehicle? I am the lessee, she is the co-lessee.
