Movies that Make Us Appreciate Insurance
Okay, okay. So you don’t think about insurance every day. And you may not read the blog of an Arizona independent insurance agency every week. We get it. You probably only think about your policy every six months. And maybe not even that often.
But a good friend of ours has a very unusual “problem.” Every time she watches a movie where buildings get destroyed or cars get wrecked she thinks about the cost to replace the damaged property. And she hopes the owners have Scottsdale AZ insurance. Like we said, it’s an unusual “problem.”
However, it got us thinking. Which movies make you grateful you have insurance? We created a list of our own and hope you add a few in the comments.
Our list includes:
- Money Pit with Tom Hanks because a “new” house falls apart
- Armageddon and Independence Day for the same destructive reasons
- Gone in 60 Seconds if you own a luxury car
- Wizard of Oz just in case your house leaves Kansas
- Titanic if you own a really big ship or priceless necklace
- Meet the Parents if you tend to be accident prone (or your future son-in-law is)
- Jurassic Park if you plan to bring dinosaurs back to life
Reality check? Few insurance companies would pay for the catastrophes in most of these movies. But we still think it’s kind of fun to think about.
So, what do you think? What movies make you appreciate your insurance policies?
Leave your comments in the notes and let’s see how many great ideas we come up with.
